Mickey, this is Max, Max this is Mickey...

Hi Bay-Bee!

We all made it to Orlando, home of Disney's most famous character Mickey Mouse and mama's doing fine! We're in Orlando for a business trip. Today, Tiffany (Focke, Marketing Director for The Maher Team) and I are participating in the CyberStar Summit at Stetson University. Mama will be enjoying a nice day of relaxation. Then, the rest of the week we are teaching and learning at the Star Power Annual Conference, a conference of 1000+ of the top agents (top 1/2 of 1%!) in the country and Canada. Going to be an exciting and educating experience.

Mama is starting to show now and she's going through the "oh my gosh, I'm fat" stage. She's not really fat, she's having a baby. I tell her that but she doesn't appreciate it like you may think. :) She is the cutest little pregnant woman ever. Her complexion is amazing and she does glow like the saying goes. When we sleep at night, I put my hand on her belly and I can hear you kicking and stretching making space for yourself. You've got a strong kick, I'm thinking some foot sports like soccer, field goal kicking, or swimming will be fun for you. Keep on kicking, little one!

We're worried about the dog. Lucky has a natural tendency to be territorial and has a snap-bite when he gets protective. He's bitten mama and myself with quick nips over his ball and his food. He already knows what is going on. I had my hand on mama's belly yesterday morning and you were really kicking (must have been hungry). Lucky crawled up and stuck his nose underneath my hand so that I was petting him instead of feeling you kick. I pet him for a second, then put my hand on mama's belly again. Lucky goes, "Errr (whine)" and worked his head under my hand again. Worried about "little dog."

We're starting to decorate your nursery. You're going to love it... as long as you love sports. :) It's going to be a traditional blue boy's room. We'll have lots of colorful and sports-themed decorations for you to play with whenever you want. Mama doesn't want me to bring a Nerf football or baseball to the hospital for immediately after you arrive, but I may sneak it in. :) Don't tell her. We need to get you started with the proper grip. :)

Have a great day little guy! We'll talk to you soon.

Love you.

To Your Success,

Bay-Bee's Papa (Michael)

Michael: I'll bet your Dad is reading these blogs! Do you realize that Marty and Chris were in Florida around this same time? And Teresa and Paula? I was there in April. I know, Florida is a big state, it's just ironic that all of us were there this year. There's pics on the Maher website of them. You need to put some on there, too.
By the way, the dog is going to have to learn to give it up! lol!
