Max got fussy at the party, but GiGi (Max's great grandma) was like a baby whisperer. We handed him over to her, and he immediately calmed down. I guess she has some experience in her 91 years. My Aunt made those hats that we are all wearing. Phil put his on as a "rally cap" and wore it like that all night. We thought that GiGi looked like she was a professional poker (well, maybe bingo) player.
Phil says that this is the look that Max gives him in the middle of the night when he wakes up and doesn't want to go back to sleep. It is very discouraging because we can barely open our eyes, and he is eyes wide open.
Max adores my sister, Aunt Jennifer, and my best friend, who we call Aunt Jacey.
My cousin, Craig, would not let us leave until we got a good picture of him with Max, so here is the best one we got.
This was pretty funny. Max absolutely loves his cousin, Evelyn. Every time she came around, he would be all smiles. Max thought it was the funniest thing when she jumped up and down and made funny noises. If he was fussy or crying for some reason, she would come over and jump up and down for him, and he would immediately change his mood and laugh at her. I need her to live closer!
Mommy came out of her shell during this vacation. Phil and I were able to leave for an entire afternoon and go on the boat that my Aunt and Uncle brought down. (Max stayed on shore with Grandma). We were out on the water for 7 hours and had some drinks. We stopped for dinner at this little bar on the water, and this is just one picture of many that shows how we were the life of the party. We had a great time!
Grandma, GiGi, Max, and Charles (my nephew) welcome us home after spending all day on the water. This picture was taken from the boat.
