Four Months!!

Today we celebrate four months with Max! He's is developing such a personality. He smiles all the time. He loves to laugh, and we can get him going in all the typical weird ways, like fake sneezing in his face Achoo, making poogee noises on his belly, and playing peekaboo. Even when he is in his swing or chair by himself he still talks, laughs, and keeps himself entertained. We're having so much fun with him right now.

Max is doing great at daycare. He never fusses at drop off, which is good because as hard as it is to say goodbye to him, it would be even harder if he seemed unhappy. His daily reports always say he was happy and smiling and loved watching the other kids. They send us pictures of him having a good time which brightens our day.

Overall Max is a healthy happy boy. He does have an issue with a lot of congestion high in his nose. He snorts, snores, and has some difficulty getting a good flow from his bottle. We've been to an ENT specialist, which was tough because they stuck a spaghetti noodle sized camera way up his nose. Max hated it and it was tough to watch him struggle with it. To treat it they've got us squirting saline solution into both nostril each time we change his diaper. Thankfully and surprisingly, he hardly minds getting these sprits up his nose. Hopefully it clears up soon.

And now a barrage of pictures. We are constantly running out of room on both of our phones from shutter-bugging Max man constantly.

We loved watching the Rio Olympics together. Lots of bright colors and movement to stimulate Max's baby eyes. Team USA did amazing. All of the swimming, the women's gymnastics, and the synchronized diving were our favorite events.

First trip to the Madison Zoo. This will be the first of many. Madison has a free zoo, that's pretty cool. We look forward to Max learning all about the different animals. He'll have to learn about reptiles on his own, because Mommy and Daddy won't be going anywhere close to any snakes or lizards.
