Almost crawling
He can lift his head quite high, and he can propel himself forward with great force, but he can’t yet do both at the same time. He has a lot of fun acting like a human bulldozer, though. ///////////////// We are greatly enjoying these days of limited mobility – he can move to one side on of his crib while sleeping and even roll over occasionally, but he basically stays put. Also, he can cry and sigh and burp and laugh and coo, but he can’t tell us, “no.” All in all, newborn to five months is a pretty great age.

Pimp Ghost Riding (Sky on Fire)
The other day we went to nanny’s village to see the flooded rice fields. The Chi River has overflowed into the fields, and huge invading catfish are happy to feast on drowned field mice and other flood detritus. Unwilling to take Mr. Max out on a flimsy boat, we watched the villagers go spearfishing for dinner. It sure is a good thing we took the trusty old Crown out on the muddy roads instead of our pretty car.

Strange Leaf Insect
Found outside of my office back in March. It was one of the coolest bugs I’ve ever seen. I’m still catching up with all the photos downloaded off my phone.

Cows in my Frontyard
A continuation of the Cows in My Backyard series. Sidenote: I’ve noticed missing graphics here and there as a result of our recent move to a new webhost. I’ll fix these soon, but in the meantime, clicking on the placeholder for a missing graphic on this site will almost always bring it up full size in a new window.

cool hand
We must here publicly thank all of those who have sent Max presents from all over the world, clothes in particular. They are sooo cute! He has so many sets of clothes I’m thinking of documenting them here as a complete collection, as well as in individual photos.

Max & Nam at MSU Nihongakusai
Another shot from the Japanese festival Nam’s department put on at Mahasarakham University a couple weeks back. Max needs to grow into his clothes a bit (thx Uncle D and Auntie M!)

Sunset from our stoop
Sometimes the sky here is so pretty it can make you cry. Even Max loved this sunset.
