Max takes on Ochocinco

Made you look didn't I! Max has finally requested to pay a sport! After watching Maddie play last year he requested to play!  Last week was his first practice and believe it or not Mommy forgot to even take her camera.... Oops! I made up for it this week, they have their first game on Saturday and the weather has been so inconsistent that bless their hearts they have only had 2 practices.  So, ladies and gents, grandma's, papa's and Eddie Powells.... Meet the KC Fireballs!


I think I'm supposed to kick this ball here!


His 'Fro is coming back in nicely!

See that form! He's a rockstar!


Are you talking to me?

Pep talk #1 (I have a feeling through this summers sporting events there will be a LOT of this)

Hussle Up!


I'll try harder to listen Coach Chip - Pep Talk #2!

hmmm... Maybe you should listen more! You have the ball now!

Great Practice Max! No matter what we are proud of you because you are out there doing your best!
Love  you Big Boy! I can't wait to watch you play your game on Saturday!

Summer and 71 Cruisers

It's back! Summer and the 71 cruisers car shows. We usually try to make it to a few of these because it's a nice free family outing. We walk from our house about 1/2 a mile and we are there! I couldn't believe all the people that came this time! There were so many cars!





Madeline was patiently waiting for Max to get done looking!




He actually thought this car was "Bumblebee from Transformmers" After we walked past the car started and drove off the other way. He said, " Mom, I told that car to start it worked!"

Little Pieces of you

Everyday I am amazed by how much you learn. Today I picked you up first and on the way to pick up Madeline you counted to 100. 100 doesn't seem like much but for me it means my little monkey isn't really so little anymore. I took these pictures of you to remember today and you the way you are.

Your cute little toes

Your cute little nose

Your dirty little finger nails

Your cute little kissy lips

Your beautiful eyes.

And, your favorite candy that's just you. Sweet.

Wordless Wednesday Peek a-boo

Time Keeps on Slippin

OMG! Today is little mophead's birthday. Where did time go? He's 4. I can't believe it! He's grown so much. I can't believe that 4 years ago today I was at Menorah Medical Center convincing them I was in Labor! And, finally after running up and down the stairs, jump squats in front of the security cameras they kept me! You were born at 5:15pm. You were so beautiful.

Our first year was a struggle with getting your thyroid adjust at the correct dose. There were trying moments for sure. But, when I look back and see something like this I forget the bad and remember how sweet and precious you are.



With your second year came fun! It was a whole new world of dynamics for you and Madeline!


And, honey... I'm sorry but mommy lost the mother of the year award again. I can't for the life of me can't remember what I filed your birthday photos under. Sorry!

But look what you've grown in too!

A sweet, adorable mommy, daddy and Maddie loving boy! Thank you little Mophead for the last 4 adventurous fantastic years!



Happy Birthday Sweet little Mophead!
MWUUUUUAHHHH!

My New Pit Crew

So, I'm positive that I've blogged multiple times about The Mophead's obsession with tires. Meet my new pit crew!

Max

We took this last night in the corn field across from our house. He's been bugging for weeks to go over there. Madeline was having NO part of pictures last night so this week seems to be all Max. Sorry!
