The morning after the snow storm in Central Park

With Mum and Grandpa in Central Park

Max in Central Park - only his button nose is visible...

Max's first snow storm

walking in the blizzard in the all terrain stroller

the stroller may have snow on the outside but Max stayed snug as a bug on the inside!

eyes wide open

Maxwell does not dig sleeping during the day... He's more awake than his Mum most of the time!

Sunday morning snooze with Dad

Well Dad is snoozing, as you can see Max is wide awake...

A visit from Phoebe

This week we were lucky enough to have a visit from Phoebe who made the trip across the pond from London especially to meet Max.  Max was quite taken with his new friend Phoebe and they had lots of lovely cuddles!!

Max gets some new wall art

Here he is with his new nursery friends Harry the hippo, Leo the lion and Esme the elephant.

Enjoying some sunshine with Mum and Grandma

This is what exhaustion looks like


Only 3 weeks old and already Max has Mum and Dad in a state of exhaustion.  Needless to say the couch is getting a good work out in the Gordon household these days!

My first tummy time experience

Check out the video of Max's first tummy time experience, Dad is a great coach and thinks Max will be doing one handed push ups in no time. hmmm not sure about that....

Cuddles with Grandma


For perspective...

Max with Dad's hand to give you an idea of how teeny he is - though he has grown so much since he was born and has now cracked 6 pounds!  Al still thinks he has caught fish bigger than that...

First trip to the Dr

I got a clean bill of health and passed with flying colors!

Max's first bath


1st bath with Dad - note Dad's specifically chosen AC/DC tee for the occasion...
There also was a special soundtrack for the event - the link is below for anyone who is interested in getting the full experience...

Sleeping like a baby...

Max likes to sleep with his hands by his face at all times, just like he did in the womb (judging by the ultrasound pics we have!)
