5 Month Max

Max is going strong and 5 months already. I really love just chillin with him. He is getting some attitude now though. He has figured out how to throw himself feet first out of his bouncy seat...we have found him face down on the ground pretty regular now. He has turned over...once. He just doesn't seem too interested. But he also stands up really well and actually takes steps while holding our fingers. Sleeping is still an issue - 5 months is starting to catch up to me. So I think we will make that more of a conscious effort now to get him to sleep more than 3 1/2 hours a stretch....starting feeding him some rice cereal about 2 weeks ago and he loves eating it. Just can't figure out if its helping keep him full at night...oh well. its really cute to feed him. My favorite things right now are bath time and getting to watch him wake up.

Wanting to put everything in his mouth....

Obviously anything will do...

Here are some pics from our trip to Arizona over Memorial Day weekend....I think Marble Canyon was my favorite...

Over the edge....

So I think I got a pretty cool engagement. Over the Memorial Day weekend, we went to Mesa Arizona to visit some family of Erick's. On the way back, we stopped at the Grand Canyon which was cool anyways. So Erick kind of went off by himself (details unnecessary) so I went looking for him at one of the view points. We ended up on the rim of the Grand Canyon and he took the ring out and got down on one knee. It was very sweet and we are planning on getting married on the weekend of the most important holiday. And I am of course talking about Columbus Day. It will be in Washington and we are very excited. Mostly for the cake. I love wedding cake.
