Whoooooo are you? hoo hoo, hoo hoo

Recently, Max has shown quite a bit of interest in pictures. He likes to look at a camera right after a picture has been taken, he likes photo albums and he even likes checking out the blog. A few days ago, I warped back to pictures of his 2nd birthday and he started identifying people in the picture. I asked him to start over and took the following video:



Wow. He has gotten so good at recognizing people both in his everyweek life as well as those he only sees once or twice a year. The last time he looked through a photo album, he was able to identify pictures of his Grandpa, Grandma and Auntie Jan without any help. In fact, the last time his Grandpa called, he asked who it was - I gave him the phone, Grandpa said "Hello" and Max said "Grandpa". To me, that's totally amazing. He has seen his Grandpa on four occasions, although one doesn't really count for recognition purposes because Max was a week old at the time.

I guess it all goes to show that everyone that Max meets over the course of his life does have an impact on him and he does remember voices and faces. So don't any of you screw up or anything because at this point he'll remember:):)
