Today I finally received my order from Digital Foto Club. Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II lens and 52mm circular polarizer. Somehow they forgot to put the lens hood in the box. This issue still needs to be cleared out.

5 month old
Maxim is five month old today. Wow. Time flies indeed.
He is still learning a bunch of new things every day. His persistence amazes me. There is nothing he can’t learn. He tries something new, if it does work he tries it again. And again. And again. And again. He gets tired – he comes back to it tomorrow, like he never tried it before. Nothing can stop him. Nothing.
Maxim in the water
Thanks to his grandmother, Maxim was going to the beach every single day during the last two weeks. Today I went together with them to see how the whole thing is happening. The idea was to inherit the experience, so that I could do this with Maxim on my own.
If I knew how cold the water is, I’d be against these sea bathing from the very beginning, but I seem to have missed the best time and now the kid has pretty much got used to it. I went into the water and it felt like a slow execution. I don’t know how come that this water measures +26 degrees because it’s freezing. And I was not alone who thought this way as only a selected few people from a rather crowded beach felt like sweeming.

First food
We didn’t go to the Jumbo today, but it didn’t stop us from feeding Maxim. He seemed to like it although he was very confused about all the fuzz. And the spoon thingy… He was trying to suck the food off it, like it was a bottle or something. The whole thing seemed like fun and only fun, until we realized that Maxim was actually eating the food. He had at most three spoons, but he ate a lot less breast milk afterwords. I just hope that he will digest it nicely, otherwise he might not eat it again. Whatever. So far so good.

Maxim and the plastic bag
At this time in his life, Maxim just loves anything that makes sound. Plastic bags and present wrapping paper are two of his most favourite toys. It’s fun watching him concentrate so hard on them that he forgets what he is and where he is.
