7/9 - grabbed a rattle for the first time
7/9 - first Gymboree class. Both Bryon and I tagged along with Maks to experience his first class in a group setting. Go figure, Maks made me nervous by only taking 3 little half hour naps throughout the day (as opposed to his usual 3-4 hour "long" nap and 2 additional 1-2 hour "short" naps). Maks fell asleep just as we arrived at the Gymboree parking lot. He was not thrilled to be woken up when class officially started, but he woke up and did great! Even though Maks was the youngest child in the class by a good 2 months (4 other kids), he made it through the entire 45 minute class! He finally fell asleep on the way home and slept for 12 hours straight!
7/21 - Maks' favorite song is officially "You are My Sunshine." Bryon sings this on repeat, over and over again. No other song seems to do the trick. When we need to calm Maks down, it's time for the Sunshine Song. I can just see his little 2 month old eyes shouting, "Daddy, Daddy! Sing the Sunshine Song!" I'm hoping we can retire this tune sometime soon and move on to something new. Anything new.
Misc.:
3rd visitor - Grandpa Ralph traveled down from Cherokee to hang out for a couple of days
Maks started playing in his doorway jumper
1st time in the automotive shop; he helped his Daddy install brand new brakes and rotors! What a little mechanic!
Loves watching his Daddy. Maks thinks Bryon is absolutely hilarious, ALL OF THE TIME.
Always needs to be standing (He has always wanted to stand instead of be held. In fact, he has never allowed a cradle hold at all. He needs to be held on a shoulder so he can be upright and see what's going on!).
No longer likes going in the car seat at all (NOT for a walk and NOT for a drive). Unfortunately, the car no longer calms him.
