5 Months


This month we carried on some old tradition and created some new ones of our own. We feel so blessed to be surrounded by such wonderful family and friends, and are thankful each day to have them to share these special moments with. We have made it our routine as of this month to visit Great Grandma & Grandpa in Maroa on friday nights after work. We love this little tradition and they look forward to seeing his growth each week. We also FINALLY got our basement done this month and hosted out first game night since Max was born. We celebrated Max's first St. Patrick's Day with the Dougherty's by continuing our tradition of family dinner on St. Patricks Day. We always get together for dinner and drink some green beer! Don't worry... no green beer for Maxie Moo! This month we are also preparing for his upcoming baptism and Easter with the family. Aunt Megan and Tony and coming to visit with their newest addition Reggie and we can't wait to meet him! Max has started laughing and dogs barking are one of his favorite things to laugh at. We have also signed Max up for swimming lessons and look forward to getting our little water lover in the pool!
