St. Patty's at the Lynch's

Last night's St. Patrick's Day gathering at the Lynch homestead marked Max's first full-fledged outing outside his immediate family.

All in all he did great! After a couple minor freak-outs (it's not like he's been socially deprived this winter) he settled down, took a nap, and proceeded to quietly people-watch the rest of the night perched upon lap after various lap.

Max finally met a group of people closer to his age than ours, especially Violet, his fellow partner in crime (the crime being to telepathically communicate from the womb to try and arrange the same birthday). As fortune has it, the closest they could manage was a few days apart even though their parents showed up at the same hospital on the same night.

Emma, Lucas, Jasper and crew flying around the house under tables, between legs, up and down stairs - Max seemed to take it all in with quiet deliberation.

Thank you Amy and Jeremy for the invite, and thanks everyone there for anything you've said or done in Max's behalf. It's nice to start getting him out and showing him off.

It's half way through March now and the cold and flu season hopefully is waning. Can't wait to get him out in the yard. We just have to find leaf rake small enough to fit him.

We loved having Max at our party. We were so glad you guys came & were comfortable enough to hang out! He's one solid little bundle, and was the perfect gentleman all evening. :)
I miss him already.
