It is with wide open arms (or in Max's case- a wide open mouth) that we welcome a new year!
Winter break was wonderful! David, myself, and the entourage of family that visited us enjoyed spending quality time with the General. Max enjoyed being spoiled by a barrage of generous holiday and birthday presents. His executive assistant, however, scheduled his one-year check-up on December 31, so the poor guy spent the last day of 2012 at the doctor. Luckily he danced around the room and took his chicken pox vaccine in stride. He got a clean bill of health, weighing in at 22 pounds. At 2 feet, 7 inches tall, he is in the 77th percentile for height, which is good because basketball is clearly his favorite sport.
David's basketball team had an early game last week so I took Max. He was completly mezmorized by the action on the court and even ate dinner in the stands, but we had to leave at halftime when he decided it was his turn to play. At home he gets plenty of playing time and is addicted to his new hoop, beaming with pride whenever he makes a shot. He also added waving goodbye to his repitoire of tricks-on-cue. The tiny, subtle gesture is adorable, yet the subtlty is completly uncharcteristic. I guess he doesn't like goodbyes.
