Starting young

A day at the beach

Max will soooo get back at us one day for this

Guess what Mr. Max Man is doing...

Bananerama

Max now eats chunks of bananas, although he still acts a bit unsure about anything with more texture than pureed food. Mums!

Be sure to watch all the way to the end!

Happy Long Ride

Alltid till höger

The food is going to come out of his ear if he keeps this up.

Kisses

Maximillian finally finds someone in the house that fully appreciates his very wet kisses.

Nose eater

Blåbär

Blueberries? Me? No, no. I haven't eaten any blueberries today. Why do you ask?

Berry nice fågelbajs

The first handfull of raspberries in our yard was ready for picking today.

The local forest (less than 1km from our house) is full of blueberries, as far as the eye can see.

Mmmmmmm hastkaka!

Is this a hat?

Får jag berätta en sak?

Gren i ögat

Branch in the eye.

I should have been a fish

Drooly teething ring

Vattenmelon

Now that Max is pretty good at eating real food, we have yet to find something he doesn't like (although avacado is still questionable). He LOVES fruit, and really enjoyed his first taste of watermelon.

Lördag på ön

Max rode in a boat for the first time and tried out his lifevest.
He actually hated the boat ride itself, but we managed to get a picture that would make you believe otherwise. He loved being out on the island.

Here is where we spent the afternoon:

So nice!

Max experienced salt water for the first time.

And he even took his afternoon nap on the boat!

Stort tack till Stephan & Lotta för en underbar dag!

Hot, naked, and sleepy.

A wonderful day on an island in the sea, and all that entails (a boat ride, swimming in salt water for the first time), managed to completely wear out Max for the second weekend in a row. More photos soon.

And finally the rest of our Midsommar pictures

Max Man rides the skrinda.

Övningsgår

The sign on Max's t-shirt is what you have to put on the back of your car when learning to drive, except it usually says 'övningskör,' meaning 'student driver.' In this case, it says 'övningsgår', meaning 'student walker.' Max doesn't show much interest in crawling, but he loves to practice walking. Maybe he'll just skip that pesky crawling stage. By the way, is it just me, or does Max have ears just like Stephen Colbert?!

Thanks, Ebba!

7 Months

Max is now seven months old, and when I weighed him today he was EXACTLY 3x his birth weight: 9,390 grams (20lbs 11ounces). He still doesn't have any teeth, but he sure does like it when I rub his gums.

Waterfish

Max did not enjoy his very first swim in a Swedish lake, initially.

But then he got used to it and had loads of fun.
