Welcome to "Life with the Maxies"! Kyle likes to think of it as "Maxie Madness". We live in Hattiesburg and are the proud parents of Kolt Allen who is 19 months and Kylee Jo who just recently turned one month old. Kyle is the head baseball coach at PCS and I am a first grade teacher at Earl Travillion Attendance Center. We attend Venture Church and are so happy that God chose to lead us there! We are so thankful for all of the many blessings God has bestowed upon us and pray that He can use us to be His light for others to see Him.

Our big boy is 9 months old! The past month has been filled with more “firsts”. After weeks and weeks of agony from teething, his first tooth finally broke through! A few days later we noticed his second tooth breaking through. We were so proud for him! Kolt has also learned to wave hello and “bye-bye”. He loves to wave! He also enjoys waving to us when we tell him “no no” or come back. Kolt also loves to tell people “Hey” and it is so sweet!  He is trying so hard to walk on his own. I honestly thought that by my 9th month blog, I would be able to say he was walking, because he wants too so badly!

Kolt loves going to the PCS football games. We sit on the grass on the side of the field so he can play with his toys. He loves to see daddy during half time of the JV games! He hasn’t been to his first college game yet, but that will come later on in the season.
During the week Kolt stays with his MiMi. There, he loves to play outside and play with their puppy Louie. They both have the same amount of energy! 

Also this month, Kolt stayed with his Big Daddy, Nana, and Aunt Sarah while mommy and daddy went to Atlanta for the Alabama opening game. He had a fabulous time! Mommy did really well also, being away that long from her baby. But I knew he was in great hands!

It seems unreal that I am already starting to make preparations and plans for his first birthday party. (It’s not that I am just that excited, but with our busy schedules, I need extra time!) We can’t wait to celebrate all of the upcoming holidays with our sweet boy! I know month 9 holds much in store for the three of us and we cannot wait to see what it holds!
