STAY IN SCHOOL. Max's first day of pre-school!

Well, it was bound to happen sooner or later. Now that I'm a toddler, inevitably, I'd have to start pre-school. The good news is, after touring 18 schools, my Dads found me a great one... and it's right near our house. Since, I'm only two and a half, I'm only going a couple mornings a week because I have to get back home in time for my nap (my Dads say I'm a 'handful' when I don't have a nap... whatever that means).

My teachers, Mr. Keisha and Ms. Maria, teach me lots of things. Like colors, days of the weeks, numbers, letters, arts and crafts and music. All that said, my favorite part of pre-school is hanging out with all my new friends: Finn, Skyler, Eloise, Lian, Robin and Nico.

Check out some photos from my first few days (and video of a song my Dada sang me on the way to school).

National Lampoon's Desert Vacation...

Hey followers.  I'm back to tell you all about the fun I've had these past few months.

I last blogged right around the holidays.  Around New Years, my Dads took me to the La Quinta resort near Palm Springs. I know what you're thinking, "Palm Springs is like a gay nursing home."  True. But, we stayed at an amazing resort with tons of pools, playgrounds and restaurants. And the best part of all, my Muga and Papsi were there too!  

Ever the hipsters, my Dads insisted we lunch at The Parker (a hotel full of gorgeous models and their out-of-shape sugar daddies). It was so much fun. When I wasn't hitting on all the ladies and playing life-size Chess, I found time to pose for a few family photos (one too many, as you'll see below).

Another day on this trip, we all went to the zoo, where there was the world's largest model train city.  But my favorite part of the day is when I got to feed an actual giraffe with my Papa. 

At the end of these fun-filled days, it clearly didn't take long for me to fall asleep (with or without my PJs).  

I can't wait to go back next year!

Patience is a Virtue...

Hi friends and family. My apologies for going MIA the last couple of months. I've been so busy with school, I haven't had time to do proper updates. But I promise -- I will be back shortly with lots of new photos and stories.

In the meantime, check out the Maxwell One Hundred Dollar Bill my Dada made me for my new toy cash register. Gives new meaning to the name "Maximilian."

Merry Christmas. Feliz Navidad. Mo’adim Lesimkha. Chena tova. Sung Tan Chuk Ha!

My Dads taught me to always include everyone. So from our family to yours, Happy Holidays all around the world.

Here are some photos and videos from our family holiday (check out my kick-ass presents).

P.S. Am I not the luckiest kid in the world?

My Dada has a cooler job than your Dada!

Most kids probably find visiting their parents at work super boring. I am not most kids. Because my Dada has a kick-ass job.  He makes TV commercials. And I got to visit him on the set with Rosie.  And guess what I saw when I was there... AN ACTUAL HORSE. That's right, my Dad was filming a horse for his latest campaign.

Take a look at some behind the scenes pictures.

I didn't leave my heart in San Francisco.

My Dada's best friend, Shardul, invited all of us to visit his new house in San Francisco.  Lots of good things happened on this trip and a few "not-so-good" things happened. Let's go down the list, shall we:

THE GOOD:
- I got to ride in a real airplane, which I loved.
- My Dada was excited because two actors from his favorite show "Parenthood" were also on our  plane. A show about parenthood? BORING, party of one...
- I got to spend time with Shardul and his lovely wife, Erin, whom I've heard so much about.
- Shardul and Erin bought me a train and a truck.
- Shardul and Erin cooked me a delicious breakfast (of which I only ate the rice crispy treat... YUM).
- There was a nice park right near the house that I enjoyed playing at.
- I fell in love with their cat, Ari.

THE BAD:
- I wasn't really in the mood to sleep or nap at all. Which actually didn't bother me. But for some reason my Dads seemed horrified by it.
- It rained the entire trip.
- They had a big dog. It was super friendly, but kept trying to eat my Cheerios. Not cool!
- It was too damn cold.

Here are some pics.

Eight crazy nights...

Some say Hanukkah. Some say Chanukah. I say "Trucks!" That's just one of the presents my Dads bought me for the holidays. But they tell me "it's not about the gifts; it's about your heritage." Well, unless my ancestors were TRUCKS, I'm not old enough to care!

Here are some pics of me and my Dads lighting the menorah.
