Maxwell Turns One

Maxwell turned one year old this year on Sept 25, 2009. It was really special to have Gong Gong and Nai Nai both here to help him usher in his first birthday. We bought Max a water heater for his birthday, being the loving parents that we are. And we also bought him a house - one that he toppled over within minutes of entering. But the highlight was when Max decided to put out the candle on his cupcake with his hand, and Mommy kind of freaked out. All in all, Max had a great day. We've included some of the photos from that weekend, as well.



The following weekend, Mommy pulled together an amazing party to thank everyone out there who has helped, supported, and contributed to Maxwell's rapid growth. We could not have survived without you all. Of course, we weren't able to invite everyone who has supported Max, but we tried our darnedest. Kudos to Mommy for pulling it all off, and a huge thanks go to Nai Nai and Gong Gong, as well as to all of our friends and family who could make it, and to all of our friends and family who could not. We are so grateful for all of you, and we are grateful that Max can be surrounded by so much love and friendship. Here's to you all!
