Max 10 Months

Pulls up to stand on his own

Impossible to change his diaper since he immediately, aggressively turns over and crawls off

8 teeth - 4 on top, 4 on the bottom

LOVES to eat, especially when he can feed himself.

Some favorites:

Peas, zucchini, carrots, watermelon, cheese, yogurt, turkey, strawberries, broccoli, cauliflower

It been wonderful to watch Luca and Max together. Luca is so affectionate and caring, always taking good care of his brother and giving us reports of what Max is doing. Max adores everything about Luca. If he is eating in his highchair or sitting having his bottle and he hears Luca in the other room, he cannot focus and refuses to eat. He needs to immediately be put down so he can crawl over to be near Luca.
