Distracting Max


Max loves to wait for the kids to come home on the front porch.  Having him home all day has proven quite challenging.  He loves on Theodore, but interprets any attempt to dissuade him from showering his affection on him as a challenge and goes about it twice as forcefully.  He loves to pull stools and chairs around the house to enable him to climb up on things and get into things that he really shouldn't.   Case in point: he loves to look into Theodore's bassinet while he is sleeping.



Which is fine by itself, but it invariably leads to something like this: an attempt to climb into the bassinet on top of the unsuspecting Theodore. 


In an effort to keep Max better entertained at home we purchased a bunch of fun inside toys: a small trampoline, a plastic slide, and Grandma Heather got him with a doll and stroller, and a fun car track building set.  Freddy and Max had a fun time playing with it the first day that it was here!


In addition to distracting toys, we have about 6 baby gates to block off various doors and hallways...and thats just for the downstairs.
