time keeps ticking...

and i keep wishing it would just freeze!

i have become such a blog loser - i have every intention of updating it and then more important things come up, so it gets filed away in the "later pile" in my mind.  i'm so sad to see my last post being that of Max's 3 month update - now we're already onto the fourth.  it has been such a fun month...he is growing so fast and his sweet personality is really coming out.  he's full of smiles and especially loves smiling at his sweet sister.  this past month we celebrated Easter and Max's baptism - what special days for our family. 

so i'll catch you up to speed on those two days and then will post some 4 month pics soon!

 the cutest little Easter bunny!

 "he left all this candy?!?"

and papa can sing, "you are my sunshine" like no other.

i can't even begin to do justice with pics from Max's baptism.  it was such a truly special day - to be surrounded by all of the people we love so much and listening to our congregation promise to guide and encourage Max throughout his spiritual journey.  we were so blessed to be joined by maria and alex and their families as well - Max is loved  - there is no doubt about that.  and for all of those that love him, 

we are so thankful.
