long awaited update

Well, here I am, how many months behind? Where to begin...

Maxton is growing up faster than I could ever imagine. He is walking. He is talking. He is in to everything! He knows exactly what he wants, and doesn't give up until he has figured out how to get it. He is quite the little boy. He is so much fun. My favorite thing is when I wake him up in the morning for school, but all he wants to do is sit in my lap and hug me. I hope he never grows out of that stage. He laughs, he dances, he digs in the dirt. He loves to go on bike rides and he loves to play with water anyway he can; from the bathtub to the hose, from the ocean to the mud puddles.
