More tailgating pictures

This is just a funny picture of both of our expressions.


I thought that this was a very cool picture of the boys taking it all in.


This is Phil's infamous tailgating hat. Max got a hold of it and wanted to wear it. I think it fits him perfectly!


I just love this picture. I couldn't resist sharing it.


Max met our close friend Jonesy for the first time.


Max looks like he is getting over tailgating for the day!


This is also a very cool picture of Max at the football game. I like how the sun is setting and you can see the field in the background.


Max outlasted Phil...enough said!

First tailgating experience

Last weekend, Max experienced his first IU tailgate and football game. He did very well considering we were there for 12 hours. We got to the tailgating fields at 10:30am and the game didn't even start until 8pm. We left halfway through the second quarter. The whole day I was just waiting for him to turn sour, but he did awesome. He took 2 one hour naps and "socialized" with all of our friends. Phil actually fell asleep before Max did...imagine that! Anyways, here are some pictures of the highlights. There are more on my sister in law's camera, so I will post those when I can get them.



Phil was trying to get Max to take a nap, but as you can see here, he had no interest in that. He thought he might just play in the driver's seat. Phil was actually holding him there, but you can't see that.


I don't even think this one needs a caption. It kind of explains itself. He is Daddy's boy!


Mommy got tired, too. We took a cat nap together.

Max's chores

So, I was looking at the pictures on the camera one day and surprisingly came across these pictures. Phil said, "Oh yeah, I put him in the washer one day while I did the dishes. He loved it." I was laughing so hard. I just thought they were super funny!

More pool time

We went over to visit Phil's aunt and uncle this past weekend. They have a pool, so Daddy and Max enjoyed some quality pool time together. I thought these pictures were super cute. In the first picture, they are making the exact same expression. What a Daddy's boy!

Mouth fetish

So, Max has this new thing he does where he will just put something in his mouth and let go. He tries to do this with everything. It is pretty funny, so I tried to catch it on film. These are the best I could do. I just crack up every time I look at them.



I just thought this picture was cute. He got so excited, and you can't even see his arms because they are flapping so fast. I just love this guy!

Max's first MLB game

Mommy, Daddy, Max, Grandma, and Cory Showalter all went to the Cubs/Reds baseball game at Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati. The sun was shining and the temperature was about 90+ degrees with no wind. Max spent the first 4 or so innings down by the concession stand where there was shade and a nice breeze. He was a pretty good sport at the game considering it was so hot and sunny.

Max's first wedding reception

My best friend, Chass, got married 2 weeks ago, and we had a blast at the wedding. I don't think I will ever be able to look at baby carrots the same, though. Max had carrots for dinner that night, and the carrots ended up all over everyone else's clothes. One of the groomsmen held him and Max puked all down the front of his tux. Then he continued to puke all over anyone that was holding him. His clothes are all stained with carrots along with mommy and daddy's nice clothes. We took our clothes to the dry cleaner, and the lady said, "You may want to give us some extra time with these. They look pretty bad." Max hasn't had carrots since that day.

Phil tried for 2 hours to get Max to fall asleep at the reception. This lady is Chass's mom's best friend. Phil handed Max off to her, and she had him to sleep in 15 minutes. Thank God for baby whisperers.
