I'm 6 months today - Shots and Santa

What a day! I'm officially 6 months old. Wow, that's quite a long time. I'm finally getting the hang of this baby gig. I'm pretty good at my job. Eat, sleep, poop, sleep, wake Mommy and Daddy up at 4am. I'm an expert by now. I wonder what the next 6 months will be like. I hear I'll be getting a lot of presents when I turn one. Start saving up now people! Max needs some new toys...

The one bad thing about getting older are the doctor's visits that come with it. Today was no different. Dr. Brown is a nice guy but I just wasn't feeling it. I mean c'mon, do I really need all these shots? I'm just a baby! Why you gonna mess up my perfectly plump thighs with some needle marks? I hate needles, they hurt like a mother! I had to get a bunch of vaccines and it was painful. Of course as soon as the male nurse was done, my Mommy picked me up. Whew! Safe at last. Sure I shed a few tears, but I'm a baby! I toughed it out though, I stopped hurting as soon as I was in Mommy's arms. And I knew they had another surprise for me...

So we drove to Mommy's office, and I thought, "Ok, time to look cute! Mom's just wants to show me off to the crew." No problem, part of being a baby is getting shown off. I got no problem with that! But when we pulled up to the lot, Mommy went to a different building. That's when I saw it... The Intuit Winter Wonderland Party! They had the Hogwarts Express out front giving choo-choo train rides. We went inside and there was the Harry Potter picture station, the Wizard Wand station, the Bertie Bott's (Jelly Belly) dispensary, and the roving witches and wizards, one of whom had a real live snake! Okay, so it was a bit much on the commercialism (Thanks WB!), but it was fun nonetheless. There was this old dude in a funny red suit and everyone was waiting on line to get pictures with him. I didn't see what the big deal was, but Mommy wanted me to get a picture as well. Check it out below.

I'm pretty cute huh? I'm on this dude's "nice list". This means I'm gonna get hella cool toys!

There were tons of other kids there, and Daddy got to try out some "Butter Beer". He's such a lush! Mommy did eventually take me over to her building and of course her co-workers all love me. I'm quite loveable you know. If not, check the pic again...

-Nice Max
