Max 11 Months

Max refused to sit with his sign, so here he is posing in his favorite spot in the apartment. End of couch where he can pull all the pillows off onto the floor, or cruise to our wobbly metal and glass top end table in attempt to capsize the whole thing - glass, lamp, picture frame, remote control and all...



- 9 teeth (as far as I can tell when he lets me check) - the 4 top front, 4 top bottom have been here since before Xmas. A new molar that busted through gums a couple days ago.
- Standing, cruising
- Opening and closing doors
- Loves to put the top on his bottle after he drinks it. You would think by his reaction that this is the most special thing to do in the entire world :)
- Says Dadda to Gioel (and to everything else in the house) - but also says "ba-bba" a lot too. Luca can repeat an entire monologue in "Max talk" which amazingly enough picks up all the particular sounds, tones and inflections his brother can make. I can only distinguish Dadda and Babba for the most part, until Luca mimics his brother and suddenly I realize there are a whole slew of sounds! Will have to capture Luca on video and post.
- Eating mostly all table food, not too much puree stuff now. Although he loves to suck the babyfood fruits right from the pouch.
- Brushes his own hair if you give him a brush. Too bad he doesn't really have any hair to brush - otherwise this trick would be awfully useful!
- Deliberately snuggles (we love this of course!)
