why max is awesome

For breakfast, he usually eats 2 bowls of cereal - and often finishes Alex's on top of that. And still the ribs are showing. Last week independent Max has really started shining through. Here, he had to feed himself entirely on his own - no help. He actually got more of the pudding in his mouth than I expected.
After dinner, Katie wanted to paint. I naively thought that Max would let me at least hold the paint for him. Again, independent Max appeared. It's fun to watch this little creature master new skills almost daily, but for crying out loud slow down little buddy! (Apparently green paint is tasty, but not nearly as delicious as chocolate pudding or dirt.)
