The Chongs: December 2007

Max's 6-month checkup

Max did well. Two shots were administered with the third shot to take place in his 9-month checkup. When Zachariah received his shots at 6-months, he immediately got a fever. No fever for Max, but he did tell us that he wasn't too happy with the shots.

Max's weight = 16 lbs and 7 oz. with total length at 26 1/2 inches.

First Christmas for Maz

We wish you a very, merry Christmas!

Have a great New Year!

Max's Baptism

The day finally came for our youngest son to receive his first Sacrament. Maximilian is now officially a member of the Church. We are thankful to his godparents, Roji & Rinsy.

Here's few picts from his baptism.

Pouring of the holy water...

2 year Milestone - Studio picts

Last year, Zachariah was perfect in posing for the Target photographer. This year, he reached the “terrible two” or I should say the “restless” two. We were hoping for a family picture, but I guess this will suffice for now.

I don’t know if you can see Zachariah’s little smirk...He loves his little brother only when he can have mom and dad’s attention.

Here’s the individual shots -

More of Zachariah - silly hat/blanket

Zachariah with the blanket – he still loves to snuggle with a blanket, pillow, or even Suzanne’s shirt.

Zachariah being silly with his cap.

Yes, he still loves to look at himself.

Max's workout routine

Workout Time! The BUMBO Baby Seat is used often either to spoon feed Max his thickened formula with rice cereal or to make him exercise and strengthen his muscles. You may have heard of this baby seat in the news recently. Not to worry, we have no intentions of elevating this seat. (A baby died after falling off this baby seat. The parents placed the baby and this seat on top of the dining table/counter.)

Playtime

Here’s Zachariah with his current favorite toy (gift from the girls next door). He is now spending countless hours working the gears.

When he is focused, he could spend countless hours on the object. Zachariah was like this when he was 6-months-old. At that time, his choice was to spin the wall clock…he still does, now he adds another element on top of the clock before giving it a twirl.
Watchmaker in the works???
