First Christmas - Part 2

We weren't sure just how well Max would handle the long trip from Bli Bli to Millmerran and were prepared for a noisy ride with a few breaks. However, Max surprised us both with his excellent behaviour by sleeping all the way to Toowoomba, where we stopped for a quick feed, play, cuddle and stretch, and then being super good and even having another short nap on the rest of the drive to the farm.
When we got there Max had a quick bath and then it was time for more present opening!
Since he had so much sleep in the car, Max was able to enjoy more shiny wrapping paper, toys and books as well as saying hello to all of the Pfeffer clan before going off to bed, while the adults enjoyed Christmas lunch leftovers for dinner.

Over the next few days Max got to spend lots of time playing with his cousins the twins. They all love being free with nappies off before bathtime, even though it usually means some puddles to clean up!
Grandma and Grandpa were also delighted to be able to spend time playing with Max. Grandpa was very happy to show off his bumper sorghum crop growing around the house, which is the best in several years with the recent rains.
After a few nice relaxing days at the farm we headed back to Brisbane again. We made sure to take time to see Max's great-grandparents on the way home, since they don't get to see him very often. I'm sure Max enjoyed their cuddles as much as they enjoyed giving them.
After all that travelling it was nice to spend a few days at home as a family together to finish off Max's first Christmas.
