Family photos!

As much as I hate being photographed, I figured there should be at least ONE picture of me with Max.  Luckily my cousin Missy is AWESOME and took some for us.

 And of course, we couldn't resist getting a few of the little scamp.

11 Months!

11 months, and I'm already taller than you. HA.

And then, she made me put on my coat.

It made me contemplate the ending of seasons, the natural
order of the universe, our insignificant place in it all... 

Just kidding!  I'm still swinging!
Why would I be mad?
I am the center of the universe, after all.

Sun? What's that? The Greek word for Max?

You're telling me you think Herman Cain was an actual candidate,
and not a performing art piece?  You need to get serious, bro.

And here I leave you, with my new look, White Tiger.

Tonight, We Shall Dine as Kings.

Max's first lobster.

Excuse me?  Why don't we eat cool stuff like this every day?

They have truly overstepped their bounds on this one.  Swinging is my one solace; my calm center of a cruel world.  When the nap times and diaper changes and bathing get to be too much, I know that I can sit in that swing and forget the world.  And what did they do?  They video taped it, because they thought it was "cute".

A new low, guys. Even for you.

Cellphone Cleanout Part Deux.

Sometimes, I play too hard.

Practicing mounting my steed.

I'm not always cheerful. The beach without a nap? No way.

Shannon's back from Alaska!

Helping Dad with his homework.

OK, so maybe I overdid the banana a bit.

A crucial part of the team.

Modeling my new skinny jeans.

TEETH.

Yes. Let's stand close to the GIANT ELEPHANT THAT COULD
SQUASH US ALL.

10 Months!

Guys, check out my biceps. I'm RIPPED.

This is my new look I'm working on.  I'm calling it "Whitewalker".  It involves a nose scrunch.
It's a work in progress.

Like it?  I'll update when I feel it's ready for display.

HAHAHA. These fools think I'm going to stay on this blanket.
Amateurs. 

So, I'm a Bills fan!  They do pretty good every year, right?
Make the playoffs pretty regularly?

Wait, what did you say? Misery?  I haven't learned that word yet.

Guys?

Sea Creatures, Bow Before Me.

 I have seen the ocean, and it is glorious.

What's that you say? The ocean is infinite?

I had a very Lion King-esque moment.

So that's a wave... got it.

Establishing my dominance
over the sea creatures.

 BWAHAHAHAHA!
Did you see Aunt Katrina run when she saw that fish?!

This is my McKayla Maroney
impression. This sandcastle is sub-par.

Oh, hey there, you caught me lounging.

....and we're out.

Enjoying a gourmet meal.

So, why don't we do this all the time?

Really, I'm truly at my best on vacation.
