Shockers!

Because Makray is constantly coming up with something new....... here are a few!

Shockers.

1. Baby food jars do actually break. Grocery people please don't bag all 100 jars into one bag.... it is unpleasant when the bag breaks and the jars and FOOD shatter everywhere.

2. While at my in-laws I left Makray happily watching Elmo and ran up the stairs to switch laundry loads, I came back to find Makray sitting at the top of the stairs...... WOW who knew he could figure out stairs in thirty seconds.

3. One night after I put Makray to bed I heard this HORRIBLE banging noise coming from Makrays room, I peaked in to find him STANDING UP in his crib shaking the sides hard enough that the crib was rocking and hitting the wall.

4. As I got use to the CRIB shaking ritual every nap and bedtime..... I recently heard a new noise... I peaked in to find Makray literally swinging from his mobile. After he got it ripped from thin air.... he ate it.

5. I walked into the living room to find Makray pulled up to the couch standing with one foot on top of the wipes box and the other foot swung up on top of the couch..... CLIMBING??? seriously? Am I totally losing it or did he manage to scoot the box of wipes over there too?

6. To go with my sixth shocker I think it is appropriate to mention that Makray has six teeth.

7. While cooking dinner Makray managed to pull a ten pound bag of pancake mix out of the cupboard, it exploded everywhere.... he then spit up into it and began squealing and hitting the floor making a nice sticky dough...... all before I could pick him up.


In conclusion.... Makray is keeping me busy. He destroys everything....I was so excited when he learned to crawl and am now devastated because it seems as though he is already bored of it and is trying to learn to walk. oh well at least he is happy!


Here are a couple of Maks 7th month pictures..... (rough drafts)

This one is my FAVE.... I think it brings out some Makrays best features!

I'm not gonna lie, your post kind of scares me! I'm sitting here reading this and in the back of my mind I'm thinking, 'is Aaron going to do that, too? ..... it's possbile, oh my goodness.' Well, good luck and hang in there! And his pics are cute. :)

He looks so big! He has alot more hair it seems like too. Your post made me laugh, he sounds like a very busy boy. Kason and he would get along, maybe they could entertain each other for a few seconds! Wait till he starts walking. Oh well, it's fun.

Wow, you've definitely got your hands full. The joys of raising boys!! It's good to have something to keep us busy!!

Cute pics!! You do a great job! I can't believe he is climbing already, and half of the other things you wrote. He just wants to be like the big kids. Since he's advancing so well, you should just start putting him in nursery:)

I am now so scared for Brecken to learn to crawl. I hope your staying sane. You sound so good natured about it all!

OH, girl you are in so much trouble. Do you have a walker to sit him in at all. you know the ones with NO wheels. You poor thing my heart really goes out to you. You are going to be chasing him around for a very long time. all I can say is Good Luck with that, and I sincerely mean that.

Whitney, those pictures are so cute! I know I've said it before, but I think Mak and Max definitely need to get together, but we'll have to watch them closely!

I love this post- I was cracking up. Remember I have a boy who also sends me "shockers" everyday too! The latest was filling the toilet up with toilet paper and about to stick his binki in there. I didn't even know he knew how to open the lid. Wow we are in trouble, just wait until they are 2!

Little Mak is so stinkin' cute. Gotta love that last picture!

That is hilarious! He's gonna be a superstar athlete someday.

Makray is getting soooo big! It is crazy how times flies! Just so you know... I feel like a horrible friend because I had no idea you guys had already moved. I'm glad you guys aren't too far though. I am sure we will be seeing you around the holidays. Good luck with everything in Pocatello and for Pete's sake, don't let Makray grow up too fast!
