Playpen

We found the perfect playpen while mommy got ready in the morning! It lasted a whole 10 minutes until he figured out how to use the faucets...

New slippers

New beaver slippers! Thanks, Grammy and papa!

Hair stylist

For lunch, he went with mashed potato to make his spikes :)

And for dinner, he used avocado. Perfect double spike ;)

Patio project

Supervising as the concrete was poured! He was fascinated, stood at the window just bouncing and shrieking!

Finished project! Took awhile, but finally done, and perfect :) Maddax loves the extended patio, perfect for his walker right now!

Sun Valley

Just playing trucks in the kitchen!

Our nice big condo!

Watching ice skaters...

And ducks.

So many nice horses to pet! Maddax wasn't afraid at all, I think he would have ridden one had we let him!

We went to Sun Valley for a weekend, mommy had a conference so the boys came to play! We didn't get a ton of pictures, but we had a great time!

Messy eater!

Needless to say, we take a lot of baths in this house...! The food is just so good!! ;)

Handsome

This is one handsome boy!! Always with a truck in his hand...

Football!

Aaaand.... Football season has begun! Daddy and baby are equally excited!

We even have the cutest football hoodie :)

10 months old!! This post is a bit late, but we've been having way too much fun to stay on time! We didn't think it was possible, but this little boy gets to be more fun, and funny, every day! Can't believe 10 months have flown so fast. He is getting so big, and has quite the personality these days. He's just a happy, busy, loud little baby who adores monster trucks, Mickey Mouse, and anything with wheels or a motor. He pulls himself to standing on anything, even walls, and is frustrated that he can't climb like Spider-Man. He walks along furniture, does squats, and has finally mastered the 'normal' crawl (though the army crawl still makes an occasional appearance)! He loves to knock over anything stacked, loves any object that is forbidden, and now crawls to outlets on the wall (and chords!) and says 'no-no'... But then tries to play with them anyways! He can cruise anywhere in his walker these days, crawl up our entire staircase without pausing, and we are just waiting for those first steps because he is so close! He's a happy little guy, usually just smiling or laughing, and has even been caught taking a small break to cuddle his mommy and daddy lately :) Turning into such a sweet and fun little boy!!

1st boat ride!

We spent the weekend camping, and headed to McCall for an afternoon to see Jillybean and her family! Took a boat ride, was a bit windy and bumpy but a gorgeous view nonetheless! If you can't tell from the pic, Ax isn't a huge fan of life jackets ;)
