Anyway, Kris's brother Kelly served an LDS mission in Brazil way back in the day. When he got back he gave us this awesome hammick for Christmas (from how we say it, doesn't hammick look more correct?)
So it's an authentic Brazilian hammock. And I think Kelly and his companions actually slept in these at night sometimes. Is that true Kelly?
In our first house we actually had someplace to hang it. Two nice trees, spaced just right. But Max was too little to really appreciate it. And of course we moved.
(Not my favorite picture of myself, of course, but Max looks cute. And we're enjoying ourselves.)
Kris got the good old hammock out the other day and hung it between our one tree and the deck. I think since we're leaving in a couple of months it'll be ok, but if we were staying any longer the deck railing would be in serious jeopardy. Because Max LOVES the hammock. It's his favorite thing. He spends so much time out there. He blows bubbles from the hammock (much to my chagrin because he spills bottle after bottle of bubble stuff.) He pats Sultan from the hammock. He swings and thinks about 6 yr old boy topics. He swings and wiggles his loose teeth. He swings and eats popsicles. He turns it upside down and pops his head out and pretends to be a bug coming out of a banana.
So basically it's 100% fun 100% of the time out there. And I love it because it gets him out in the sun and the fresh air.
And I'm only worried about him falling on his head about 10 times a day. No big deal.

" . . . like a bug coming out of a banana." That is spectacular.
I'm with Mar. And I think that was a double swell picture of you. I didn't remember Max was so round. I want to lie in the hammock. But I fall out of them. They just - dump me out. Very sad, I think. Maybe Max could teach me?
You have a tramp....and you worry about Max falling out of the hammock on his head........ :D
Max looks like he is having so much fun in that hammock. I too have a problem staying in those things.
