More Taft Halloween.

Charlotte, another Taft Lane baby (there are a lot of the crawling around), got cuted up with Maxwell after Mo-town's annual trick-or-treat.

Haunted Taft Halloween!

We got together with some friends for a Halloween party last night. Arjun, Monika and Milind hosted and were joined by a dozen or so others. The kids were, naturally, adorable.

"An Appletini please. Easy on the 'tini.":

Style maven.

New York is considered the fashion capital of the world (sorry Paris) and Maxwell's taken a liking to the latest trends.

Frisco babyfriends.

We're not the only ones with a new baby in tow. Amy and Peter have little three-month-old Logan, and Jen and Mike have Dallas, and another on the way!

And that's not all.

We were just getting started with our Friday visit: Maxwell watched the Ohio State game with the Bay Area Buckeyes (that's Gary in the background, who he stayed with), went on a wine tour (and met Phil, whew), hung out with the Bay Area Babies cruising through Golden Gate Park.

An amazing second vacation for the six month old!

Gotta see the baaaaabbyyy.

Emily and Dave Borders (unfortunately, not pictured, we're idiots) hosted a Meet Maxwell party where he hung out with our old crew. Here's a few pics we did take...

If you're going to San Francisco.

We were, no flowers in the hair, but Maxwell took his first flight, direct to San Francisco and did great. We spent a long weekend with friends, including Max's new buddy Karl.

Just swingin'.

Maxwell, Michael and Pieda have been spending time at the park. The swings are entertaining.

More babies.

We had the neighbors over for takeout a couple weeks ago. The young ones include Milind, who literally TOOK HIS FIRST STEP at our house!, and Sophia, who's been walking awhile now.





Milind crashes on Sonny...

Food!

Maxwell's big enough for real food. If by "real" you mean organic non-tasting rice cereal and mashed up avocado and sweet potatoes. Soon enough, it'll be on to filet mignon.

Unfortunately, he didn't like the rice cereal too well. Who would though?


The spoon is good, however.


Eight days later, Maxwell loves the avocado.

For those with time on their hands...

If you can't get enough of Maxwell from these blog posts, there's plenty more where that came from....

Don't forget the entire Maxwell Collection can be found along the right hand side of this blog under "Photo Albums," where we just posted his entire Month Five of pics.

The Great Pumpkin!

Wolfgang and Maxwell play in the pumpkin patch.

The talented Wolfgang Allu.

Wolfgang plays the finger-flute.

And pumpkins...

Apples.

Maxwell went apple picking with the baby crew this weekend.

Oktoberfest.

It's October, so that can mean beer and picnics for Maxwell. Well, no beer, but a picnic at Rachael and Matt's house.

More buckeye.

The Bucks are 6-0. Maxwell's outfits are working out well.
