18 month check-up

It is hard to believe that Max is already 18 months. He has grown up so much and understands much of what you are telling/asking him. He will bring you his coat in the morning if you ask him to get it, he will take you to his shoes if he has thrown them somewhere and I can't find them, he will take me to something he has wrecked or messed up and point to it and he will scream loudly if you wait to long to feed him.

Max you:

Love real screw drivers but not pretend ones. You know exactly where they are used to replace batteries in each toy.


Hannah has the patience with you like no one I have ever seen. She attends to your every need and rarely gets upset with you. She shares everything she owns with you and always has time for you. She loves you deeply and often mentions how I will need to help you when she is in Kindergarten next year and can't be there for you. She calls you "honey" and will make a fabulous mother someday. Darren and I joke that we would let Hannah babysit Will and Max before we would let Jack.


Jack and Will think that you are the funniest and cutest little boy they have ever seen. They love chasing you around the house and giving you fast rides in your red car. They like to carry you when you don't want to be carried and take stuff from you that you want to keep. Jack will let you play in his room but Will is not so inviting. Sharing a room with Will eventually may not work out so well! Jack and Will love you so much and and are very protective of you.
