If you had told me that 17 months after I had Max I'd be introducing him to his younger brother I'd say you were crazy! But that is exactly what has happened. Max's brother was born the day before he turned 17 months and to our surprise he has been nothing but amazing around him! We were so worried he would be jealous, but so far things have been going great. Granted it has only been two days at home, but so far so good. Max's first sight of his brother:
Max has definitely sprouted and seems so much bigger now. His feet and legs have grown so much I'm shocked and he looks like a little toddler. He loves to be outside now that the weather is nicer and his favorite thing to do is to ride is bike around the community. Everyone knows him and we jokingly call him the mayor of munchkin land since he loves seeing people outside. He still doesn't say more than Momma, Dadda and Daisy but he does blab a lot more now and it sounds more clear. Hopefully he will soon say a few more words!
He has started to sporadically give you a kiss when you ask for one which is the cutest thing ever. He still has his temper tantrums when he doesn't get his way or when he gets upset about something. He usually starts to bang his head against something, cries and lashes out by either hitting you or pulling your hair. We still do the time outs which I don't think bother him so much haha His favorite thing to do is drink his sippy cup and then spit it out which makes him soaking wet in the end.
He still sleeps through the night 95% of the time which is great, and for the past few days he has been sleeping until 7:30 some days. He has perfected his walking and can even run now, but he still trips if anything even remotely raised is on the floor.
He is such a ladies man when we go to the grocery store and the women eat him up. He really is such a sweet little loving boy, I just hope he adjusts well to his new brother. The first two days he has pretty much ignored him with the occasional hint of curiosity. He smiles at him but I have a feeling it won't be so easy. Time shall tell.
