Max the Visitor

A couple of weeks ago Gage's friend Max came over to visit while his Mommy was at work. We had Max for two days, and he was fabulous! Gage was happy to have someone other than his brothers to play with and Nate and Jude thought that Max was cool, because he crawled like they did. I liked Max because he slept better than the twins.

What do you do when you're in a new place and feelin' blue? You curl up with your friend, Doug the Moose, and look pathetic.



Seriously, he is soooo attached to Doug. When he had his lunch the first day, Doug sat on the table where Max could see him, or Max got really upset. Doug is to Max what Elmo is to Gage.

Max is just over a year and I was afraid he'd just take off if I didn't put the tray on the booster seat, but he sat and ate just like a big guy! (It's very hard to put 4 boys in a picture together, but Gage was having lunch, too.)



Gage showed Max the many uses of the abacus.



Gage and Max had their snack while the boys had their nap on the Friday morning.

For the most part, I didn't even notice the difference between 3 boys and 4. I was amazed at how well Max and my boys all just fit together. Kids are so adaptable.
