Pumpkins and eggplants!

we had quite an eventful weekend here in ATX! ACL was going on in zilker park but we had more important things going on...K was visiting from chicago! max loves his auntie K:) the weather was great while she was here and we go to spend some time outside. we even managed to make it to the pumpkin patch.

then max had a run-in with the coffee table. he was going to turn and fell right into the leg of the table...i scooped him up to comfort him and when i pulled him away he had a huge goose egg and bruise on his forehead. papa got some ice going and mama called the on-call pedi. max didn't really enjoy the ice but it really did help with the swelling. he was fine and had forgotten all about his bump in about 10 minutes. he has a lovely mark (K calls it his eggplant) that i'm sure will be with him for a bit:)

he had learned to push his car around walking behind it...the secret is the carpet...it goes way too fast on the hardwood! here is a video link!

he is getting really good at waving and saying bah-bah, which can mean anything from bottle to bye-bye! he is starting to clap and point a little more which is fun. he loves saying da-da and has said ma-ma once...i keep trying but i think he is holding it in reserve for when he really wants something:)
