Toothy

Maddox cut his first tooth! He is 8 months old now and is getting closer to crawling. He looks like a little toddler and is sweeter than ever. The most frequently asked question is, "is he always this happy"? The answer is, mostly yes. Even with the discomfort of his teeth coming through he is generally very pleasant to be around.

I painted Maddox's initials and embellished them with paper. It is funny to hear people try to figure out what they stand for.

*Maddox, Bing.... what does the "p" stand for?

*Lane did you hyphenate your last name... Burch-Perrine? No, my maiden name was Myers. Oh, who is Burch?

This was my first official Mother's Day and it was lovely... except that I was really sick. Bing brought me flowers and breakfast in bed, my favorite stuffed french toast from McCormicks. There was a prepaid coffee card in the flowers and we had a babysitter for the whole day. Bing and I got lunch and just hung out which was fantastic. For dinner, Bing grilled up some burgers and steak and he made me lobster! We enjoyed my parent's hot tub and nice weather, it was a great day.

Those biter biscuits turn to glue when mixed with saliva! Oh my.
It's weird to think that my boys and your boy are only 16 months apart...someday that will seem like nothing but right now they are in completely different stages. Love you all-
