Our Max turned 1 years old on August 23rd. It's crazy to think that he is already one, but yet it seems like I was pregnant so long ago!
For his birthday, Troy's parents were came down and we went swimming in the afternoon, barbecued for dinner and then opened presents and ate cake.
We thought that Max would down the cake, and were very excited for the fun pictures. Well, he really let us down (you can tell his thoughts by the picture above). He was very hesitant to even touch the cake so Darrin would dig in a little bit and say "Brother, eat" (you have to understand that you never have to TELL Max to eat; he's always putting something in his mouth!) After many attempts, we finally got him to taste it a little bit and still, nothing. The funniest part of the whole thing was he started doing things just to entertain us. He stuck his finger in the frosting and put it on his face and started laughing. This went on for a little bit and then he just pushed the whole thing away! We were shocked at his performance. Hopefully next year!
Max got lots of presents that Darrin enjoyed opening. He got a couple of books, lots of clothes, animal cookies, a little tikes car garage, some bath toys, toy keys and (still coming) a fun ride-in car.
Thanks to Troy's parents and Jodi and Steve for celebrating with us! And thanks to Max for being in our family! We love him to pieces!!!
