Maxim Invades Wisconsin

We were recently in Wisconsin for ten days. The trip was planned around our friend's wedding where Andy was the best man. The wedding was a great time and the first outing for us without Maxim. It was tough on this new mamma as I thought about him a lot and couldn't wait to get home to see him.

While we were having fun with good friends the big man was in good hands with grandma and grandpa.

This trip also gave us the opportunity to introduce the big man to our friends and family. It was a crazy busy ten days of go-go-go and I am glad family got to spend time with Maxim. To make things easier there was a Meet Maxim party for Andy's side of the family and one for mine.

Here is Maxim just chilling with his new shades on at his party.

While in Wisconsin we enjoyed the beautiful weather as it was a nice change from the hundred degree temps in Phoenix. I took Max for walks in the Bjorn and we sat outside on the deck enjoying the beautiful afternoon.

We did our usual family photo in front of my parents fire place in case we don't make it back for Christmas.

While in Wisconsin Maxim grew quite a bit in those 10 days. I don't have numbers for weight and length but the Bjorn fit hm quite differently by the time we left and he grew out of these pajamas as they are too short on him. When I got there they fit him perfectly, but now they are being retired as they are not pants on him anymore, they are shorts that are jacked up his butt.

He has a doctor appointment on Monday and I will find out then how much he has actually grown.

We had such a wonderful time that I even thought how it would be nice to move back so Max can be around family, but then Andy reminded me of the winters and how much I hate them. I quickly got over that move to WI thought.
