Maximilian's 11th birthday: his first birthday at home!!!



Maximilian's 11th birthday, which was his very first birthday at home, didn't start in the most magical way at all. As a matter of fact, it started with an ultrasound that had been scheduled from one day to the other due to what could have been a matter of concern--but thanks God it turned that not to be the case at all. So, after all that was an awesome start for a child's birthday . . . even if not in the most fun way at all. Anyway, Maximilian was extremely brave and smiled through the whole procedure. Just look at these pix!!!


As above said, the normal ultrasound results were the very best that could have happened that day. Of lesser importance, but still great, on that day I discovered that we have a petting zoo almost around the corner. It's a farm that offers free admission and only charges .50 cents per feeding cup. On his birthday, Maximilian was there twice, first as a stop when coming back from hospital and then again in the evening.












Presents were opened a couple of days later. There are lots and lots of birthday pix. It was really hard to select which ones to post and which ones to leave out.




























































Look at Gerard's big brother's pride!!! No words needed.
