Wow!  I can't believe it's already the middle of October.  We are loving this weather.  Max is growing up way too fast!  His brain is like a spounge right now.  He picks up on everything!  We currently just got finished learning his colors.  He sucessfully knows purple, blue, green, yellow, utes(red), gray, and black.  

This last weekend, my little sister was nice enough to take Max for the weekend so Dan and I could enjoy a weekend in Vegas to cheer on the Utes.  We had so much fun with our family.  These are some pictures that my sister took while she had him. 

Taryn and Max at his favorite place in the world....Wheeler Farm

Playing on the swings at the school....

Playing in the front yard....

Taryn kept him so busy!  They had so much fun!  This morning he asked for Nan-Nan the second he woke up!  

One of Max's favorite people to hang out with during the week took his picture a few sundays ago while at family dinner.  Annie is so good at catching the cutest moments.  Here are just a few....

Oh and I just saw this one on the camera.  I guess this is what happens when Dad puts Max in the bath...

BeAr lAkE....

We just got back from Bear Lake.....Boy, did we have fun!  Jackson and Max are best buddies!  Here they are getting ready to go to the beach.  Dan took both of them back in the bathroom and came out with their hair looking like this!

Jackson at the beach...

Max at the beach...

Max loved to play anything with Brady... his two favorites... throwing the ball and making popping sounds with their mouths!

Max loved to just hang out with the boys...

and especially Dad!

Thanks Brady, Becca, Bobbi and Skeen and especially Jackson.... We had so much fun!

SuMmER FuN...

Wow!  I have been really bad at the whole blogging thing. I guess we are having too much fun being out of school and just playing all day!  Here is a little of what we have been up to...

Getting 18 month pictures taken...

Playing a lot of Hide and Seek...

Playing in the Dishwasher...

Being obsessed with keys...

And playing outside in his sandbox...(My cute pictures won't upload)  We are just enjoying the summer and being together!

Welcome Home Uncle Sam!

Sammy is home!  We had so much fun at the airport!  Max loved him!  He just cuddled him to death! (and Max does NOT cuddle!) We are so excited to have him home and to live with us!  Welcome Home Sammy!

(sorry these are out of order!)

Here Max is cuddling!  It melts my heart!

Graham and Max meeting their Uncle Sam for the first time!

Sam coming down the stairs!

Max will not hold our hands so we are now those creeps that have our child on a leash!  But he loved it!

**Sam has been here one night and Max just loves him!  Follows him around like a puppy dog and loves to show off for him!  Sam is fresh meat for Max!

Myron Brewer,

 

Our friend and brother

 

Gently slipped into the eternal worlds late Wednesday evening... Myron was raised @ incredible pets where he enjoyed the company of many of his friends and relatives, until one lucky day when he was brought to his current home and eventual resting place. Myron truly is a "Fighter Fish," He recently went through a horrific accident causing him to exit his bowl and suffer serious injuries... We thought Myron had made a full recovery but he obviously suffered too much injury from the fall.

Myron-Thank You... Thanks for teaching Max what sound a fish makes, thanks for providing Max with countless hours of amusement. Tell we meet again MY MY MY Myron...

(This was an email Dan sent to me today.... That is how he broke the news to me....Sometimes he kills me!)

A BaG oF NeW TrIcKs...

The past few weeks, Max has a whole new bag of tricks!  This is such a fun age!

This is what Max does when we tell him to smile... Only it is a lot cheasier!  This was taken at the tail end...

Max loves to go through all the cupboards..... Fortunately he does not pull things out yet!

Our favorite new thing is we say to Max "Bad Cough" he does this fake cough.  We were babysitting baby Graham last week and he was coughing so I said, "Wow Graham, that is a bad cough!"  and I hear Max in the other room just coughing!  I guess you could say he is not ready for another sibling as he is begging for attention in a whole other room!
