Max (and parents) had a pretty scary event last Sunday. After a nice birthday dinner at the Weber Grill at Circle Center in downtown Indianapolis, we went a-shopping in the Carson’s  department store. Long-story-short, we ended up flying out of the store to get Max to the Emergency Room with a pretty significant cut to his head. He’s feeling better now, but the 3 stitches he was given at Methodist Hospital took quite a toll from all of us. Here’s a few pics of the tough little guy, pre and post sutures:
Max is 13 Months Old and going full steam ahead… a few current pics and vids:

So many grand things this last week! Most importantly, Max turned 1 year old! (technically 1.75 years here on earth with us) Mom and Dad are now happy that we can answer people’s “how old?” question with out getting a surprised look. He had several friends and family attend his party at the new house and eat tons of food from Black Diamond Barbecue and birthday cake from Costco.  For dinner, Max got to go out to a new Mexican restaurant and eat tons of avocado. Quite a day.
Max also had his 1 year doctor appointment this week, where he had 4 shots (ouch!) was 34″ tall and weighed in at slightly over 30 lbs. No more bottles or formula for the Max Man. It is all milk and sippy cups from here on out. He also was cleared to sit in his car seat facing forward (but this was primarily because he is way to big to sit in the rear facing position.) He had a lot of fun on his first ride and is looking forward to more.
Pics below and some video from this past month. More to follow soon. We are way too busy with this guy!
