Max's Birthday

I had the special opportunity of being with Logan for his baby brother's birthday. I showed him the picture of his new baby brother, Max, and he looked at it for no fewer than 15 minutes and requested "mo? mo?" when the iPhone screen went dark. So sweet.

We practiced saying Max's name and his age, and talked about how he would drink mommy's milk, but that Logan drank cow's milk from a cup because he was a big boy now. He was very interested in this mama's milk, wanting the Bean to nurse more and more. "Mo nip? Mo nip?" But alas, his "friend" was done nursing, and he'd have to wait another 3 hours for the fascinating events of breastfeeding. There was actually a time where both kids were resting at the same time. The. Same. Time. Two kids is totally doable, right?!? Ha. I'm so not there yet, so don't even ask.

On another note, how weird is it to change a boy's diaper? I felt almost perverted. Everything's just different down there.


Let's play "choo choo."

8 lbs 3 oz and 19.5 inches


Later I got to meet Max in person, on his first day in the world. So precious and perfect. Rach wasn't feeling super hot (not that you can tell here), so the meeting of the brothers and the birthday party was postponed by one day.

Best friends? Lesbian moms? Wet nurse? You tell me.



I then had the privilege of being with the Menne's when Logan and Max met. Logan was at first sort of gun shy, then "done." Some new farm Legos soothed his overwhelmed soul. And just a bit later he was very, very interested in this little bundle of newness. He was soooo good at being gentle and petting Max's head. Francie was equally enamored - with Logan's hair. No really, she was excited to see the "dada" (apparently her word for baby), but just as excited to play farm Duplos with Logan.

Cute kids.
