Today I am writing about Maxwell's first sporting event at Hilton Coliseum.  We were able to take the whole family to watch the ISU volleyball season opener against Wichita State.  The Cyclones ended up winning in straight sets: 25-16, 25-21, and 25-20.

Maxwell, Mommy, and Nolan getting ready for the game to start.

Here is the opening serve between Wichita State and Iowa State.

Maxwell got to meet Cy!!

I was looking back through my blog, and the first time that Nolan attended an ISU sporting event was on October 9th, 2013.  Similarly, his first sporting event was an ISU volleyball game.  Even better, the Cyclones won that match in straight sets against another team from the state of Kansas (Kansas State).  Nolan was also able to meet Cy that night as well.

I just wanted to point out that today is special for us because little Maxwell is now 6 months old!  He's changing so much now.  He's basically army crawling now, but he can't quite crawl normally.  He can get up onto his hands and knees, but he will only wiggle around.  He still needs to figure out how to coordinate his arms & legs to crawl.

Another fun thing about today is that our friends Dan & Anne Becker welcomed their second child today as Lara Mae was born this morning :)
