Game On

Having conquered (more or less) the realm of the horizontal, Max has decided it's time for a new challenge, and he's going vertical. (Never mind that he skipped the sitting stage entirely)! He has begun to go over to furniture and pull himself up onto his knees. From this vantage point, he can reach (and pull down) all the books from the shelf, which he then fervently crams into his mouth until they begin to turn into an ooey, gooey mess. We have also seen him pull up to a standing position a couple of times from his knees, which just blows us away. (I mean, he's not quite 7-months-old, for crying out loud)! He hasn't cracked his head open yet, thank goodness, but I feel sure that day is coming. Jeff has long predicted that Max will be our earliest walker, and it looks like he may be right. One thing's for sure, my full-time job has just gone into overtime! But even more difficult than that is seeing my itty, bitty baby grow up so fast!
