25 Things

So Max turned one on Friday. I figured the best way to mark this milestone for Max was to make a list about him. Kinda like the "25 things about me" list that people make and cycle thru Facebook. So here it is:

1. Max has the BEST smile! He has the biggest grin that will melt your heart.
2. In relation to his smile, we nicknamed him Trouty Mouth when he was a newborn. (Glee fans will get this).
3. Max just experienced the happy joy of PB&J sandwiches.
4. Max is not a fan of the sippy cup. We are working on this....
5. Max has never taken a pacifier.
6. Max was born addcted to drugs.
7. Max came to our family on Friday the 13 (a lucky day for us).
8. It's hard to get Max to laugh, he tends to laugh most at his sisters.
9. Max is the 8th child of his birth mom.
10. Max is so stinkin cute I can't stand it.
11. Max doesn't take 2 naps. Even tho he probably should.
12. Max sleeps with his eyes partially open.
13. Max really doesn't like veggies.
14. Max shakes his little baby booty when he sees his sisters dance.
15. Max has had chronic ear infections his whole life.
16. Max hasn't said his first word yet. (But I am 99% sure it will be DaDa)
17. Max's hair grows like crazy. I have to cut it every 2 weeks.
18. Max LOVES electronics (mainly Cell phones, iPads, and remote controls). If he sees one he gets excited and heads for it. If you leave with it, he will have a melt down.
19. Max HATES the car seat. When I brought him home from the hospital he screamed the whole way. He has been screaming there ever since.
20. Max started crawling when he was 10 months old.
21. Max's nick name is squish (see Finding Nemo to better understand this).
22. Max also has the nicknames: Maxie, Maxerton, Maximus & Maxalicious
23. Max loves to snuggle on his dad's left shoulder. The shoulder has now been dubbed "the napping shoulder"
24. Max has a total melt down when he sees his family playing rough. He thinks we are too hard on each other. Cute but also sad.
25. Max LOVES his dad, and the feeling is mutual.
And and honorary mention: 26. My best friend, Jenn, LOVED Max. She spoiled him like he was her own. She always referred to him as "our" Max. I'm sure she would love him even more now.
