"Bops and Bikes"

Wednesday Nov. 28

Well, Maxwell had a visit from the "Bop" Fairy: ( The fairy that comes while you are asleep and takes your pacifiers and gives them to new babies that need them).
For his "prize" for being such a big boy he got to go the store and pick out ONE thing!
He chose a new bike! He also learned to ride it right there in the store, and rode right through the check out lane and out the front door to the car!
( He had previously tried bikes or trikes with pedals and wasn't able to alternate feet yet, but this night (Wed) he started and became a pro in seconds!)

So now Maxwell is off of his "Bop" (as he called it), and onto a Bike!

(picture to come soon!)

Digging Day!

Saturday Nov. 10
Our friends are building a house, and they invited us to spend the afternoon at their site!
The big hole had just been dug, and in we all went! They have two boys as well, so the four of them had a blast! Dirt , Dirt, and more dirt!



Halloween... Even if it is December 1!!

Well, Maxwell unfortunately got sick that day at school... so his costume is only partly donned.. but he would not be stopped! He went out for his first "real" trick or treating event! He ended up giving everyone else his treats!
He was "Dory" form "Finding Nemo" for the big day- Homemade style!
He had his heart set on having his face painted blue, but he was too sick in the end.... Next Year will be better Maxwell!!


Little Liam was "Little Squirt" from "Finding Nemo".. (a baby turtle).
He had a great time, and discovered candy, really for the first time!

ssshhh.. I'm sleeping!

"Little Leemy"
During a recent cat nap he sat up and put his head over the back of the couch- while he was still asleep! just making sure he wasn't missing out on anything!



Go Cheifs!

My first NFL game..... we didn't win, I actually didn't even watch much of the game.. instead I tailgated with my Mom and Dad and some of their friends, I ate .. I ate.. and did you notice the blue cotton candy? Yes! It was my first Cotton candy! I am not too sure about that stuff!
