Where to start?!
Since it has been so long, there is a lot to update you on!
Maddox has both of his bottom front teeth.
He weighs 20lbs 2 oz
He refuses to crawl, and is no closer to walking...good for me!!!!
He loves the baby swing at the park
He love, love, loves animals, fire, and water. All of these make him wiggle and squeal with delight.
He is a wonderful camper. This point gets extra emphasis because Bing and I were there for the twins first attempt at camping and it did NOT go well. We were nervous that he wouldn't like the tent, the new sounds and smells, dad's snoring etc... He was a champ the first time, waking up twice but settling back down. The second time, he slept for 13 hours straight, not a peep, a grunt, or a cry. We actually checked him several times to be sure he was breathing!
I bundled him up in a footed sleeper and his snowsuit with hand flaps to keep every little bit covered and warm. He was sleeping on his stomach and looked like a kid that had fallen down with arms outstretched and then couldn't get up. It was very funny, yet sweet.
He eats solid food at every meal and is weaning himself from breastfeeding. He only wants me in the morning and right before bed. He does, however, love to bounce his face off of my chest which makes me laugh and then he looks at me with a scrunched up face and kind of snort/laughs.
Bing is really enjoying the construction business and seems to be quite good at it. I am working 3 to 4 days a week at the wine bar while Bing stays with the boy. We are seriously hoping that we will win the Lottery so that we can afford to do more of the things that we love, but mostly so that we would be able to jet back and forth between MT and OR. We've been missing all of our family out west and Bing longs for more temperate weather:)
More pictures to come!

Very quick
Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. Our "free" internet is once again, not working. I have just enough time to check my e-mail at my parent's house before Maddox freaks out, because... it is dinner time and I didn't bring him any dinner. Guess it is time to jet home and feed my unhappy son.

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.
