Pink Trucks

Max and I have had an ongoing project for Ivy's birthday present from him this year.
Max is an expert on trucks.
So, we thought we'd let him teach Ivy all about trucks by making her a book...
with all pink trucks.
So, Max and I searched the internet to find all the pink trucks we could find. Max loves to do this, and we had a good laugh to see pink backhoes and pink toe trucks, etc. He picked out the ones that he wanted Ivy to know about, and we saved them on the computer. We also saw a pink beetle-bug in the grocery store parking lot the other day and added it to our collection.
I made a little template background and pasted the pictures he chose onto it. Then he sat with me at the computer and told me what he wanted Ivy to know about each truck. He even typed some of it! (one letter at a time...sigh)
we looked and looked for a pink garbage truck...but still have yet to see one. Max really wants to one day see a pink garbage truck.
made especially for Ibes by Max...he is soooo excited to give it to her...cute boy!

This is fantastic....she will love it, and what a nice thing for Max to get to share with her.
I have pictures of a pink bike and pink beetlebug, too! The book is so 'girlie' and cute! XO Mom
