And now its time for Max. Max is currently working on some coordination issues. At 16 months he is bigger than he is ready to be. He has yet to master running and paying attention to his terrain at the same time. This combined with a strength that he shouldn’t yet possess is leading to a number of bumps and bruises. This combined with the damage he is inflicting on the house is making for our most interesting child to date. His damage scorecard this year includes: 2 closet doors, one bedroom doorknob broken off, (his sisters for locking him out) 4 picture frames smashed, Maggie’s Barbie bike stripped of all of its gaudy frills, 2 of Katie’s trophies broken, 8 various knobs pulled off, his crib latches snapped, 1 set of shower doors ruined, toilet paper rolls are not allowed to hand from the wall, and just yesterday he pulled the front off of a drawer he wanted to get in. I love this little charmer to death, I just wish he’s develop into his body a little quicker. I have more but I’ll save it for another time. We are getting ready to head to the Dells and I can’t pack and type at the same time. I’m going to try and update from the road. 12:00:00 AM    says you
