Just Another Week




Last week, we finally got back into going to the zoo again. We went with Michele and Baby Bryce...oh, my, does max love Baby Bryce. Anytime he sees anything baby he says: "oooooh, baby, bryce...oooooh." It's fun that he remembers him even though were not around them all the time...wish we were Michele!!

Sunday Max went to Nursery at church for the first time without crying when mommy left. I was so proud of him because he’s getting to be such a big boy. But, he figured out a trick: he is quite a tenacious fellow! If he poops during nursery, he will swiftly be escorted out to find mommy or daddy…or grandma for that matter, and he has the possibility of not going back!!! He has pooped two weeks in a row.

He also went to a friend’s second birthday partythis week, Gage Robbins. He had such a fun time! He bounced in a huge blow-up bouncy house, played duck, duck, goose…but really had no idea what was going on. Luckily he was never the goose…and hot potato. Actually, he really just went down Gage’s slide and played in his pirate ship sandbox. He was so cute interacting with all the other little kiddos running around. And SHOCKER…Max ate a piece of cake and ice cream!
Another event of the week was Cousins Brett and Cameron came over with Uncle Todd to work on their Pinewood Derby Cars. Max knows “Butt and Bubba” and enjoys saying their names every time we walk past their picture…which is quite often because they’re on the door exiting our room. Bubba and Brett played with him so much, he had a really good time kickin’ it with the boys, and Uncle Todd gave him a really cool car that rolls--even on carpet...sheesh! It was otherwise a pretty uneventful week. BUT…words of the week are as follows:
Pretty, Big Boy…yes, he said two words in a row, of course he says: mmmmmm, nummy anytime he sees any speck of food. When he sees a bee, he says just that: a bee! And he’s been saying the alphabet as follows: A-D-C-D- E-eh-G. He mostly sings just the EFG part when he sees letter stickers. He’s also been working on counting. Two, Fi, EEt, Ni! (translation: 2, 5, 8, 9) He’s a genius…just warning all of you. We love to watch him grow! PS...here is the dang cute picture of Max's new Chucks that we spoke of last week...They are about a size too big, but they are cute. We're on the look out for some bad-to-the-bone black shirts, or at least shirts with some black to match...any ideas??? Blah blah blah...not much happened this week, so it's just a mess of my babble...sorry 'bout it.
