Aruba, Jamaica, oooh I wanna take ya

We recently traveled to Jamaica for Grant Culver (one of the Miller's best family friends--known him since he was a tot in diapers!) and Nicole's (my little sis Tessa's best friend/roommate from college--she's like our 5th sister) wedding. It was so awesome & special since we knew both sides so well--and Max (along with cousin Tucker) was even one of the ring bearers! It was such a blast & a much needed, relaxing vacation!Here's Max in the shuttle bus on the way to the resort--Hey look there's the ocean!!! He was especially excited b/c he got to sit on mom's lap instead of in his carseat. We lugged it all the way from OKC on the airplane & everything--come to find out it did not even come close to fitting on the shuttle bus (the seats were way too close together).
The whole fam in our stylish shades!
Max discovered the sand, the rocks, and the saltwater did not taste so good...

The biggest 9 month old!

This past week I went to the doctor for my 9 month check-up. I am growing & my Mom & Dad are feeding me VERY well! I weigh 23lbs5oz (90th%) and am 30.5 inches (97th%), with an 18.5 inch head! My doctor says I am the size of an average 14 month old! We've been very busy lately--just got back from a trip to Jamaica (we have lots of great pics that I'll post later), and my mom just took a big test (her ER inservice exam) this past week. We also discovered when we got back from our trip that our dryer was broken :-( so we just got a new one. This weekend my mom & dad get to do laundry & put away Christmas decorations while I play! I love being 9 months old!
What mama--no shots at my 9 month check-up?!

Hurray!
