9 Months And Counting

We are 3 days away from our due date for baby number three, but he or she does not seem interested in coming out.  The baby has not dropped at all and even though I am having contractions, they are not enough to be true labor contractions.  Luckily Tyler is home for the summer, so the boys and I are trying to keep busy so I don't get to anxious.  We have gone to the pool twice, gone out to eat, taken family walks and gone out for ice cream.  We are thinking of trying the zoo tomorrow.  We have another doctors appointment on Monday, June 4th.  I am hoping the little one will decide to come before that!

Mothers Day 2012

My boys!

This Mothers Day I wanted to keep it low key.  We didn't travel anywhere to visit the Grandmas and my only real goal was to have everyone go to church together.  We did make it to church and the boys did really well.  Then we relaxed at home while Max napped.  After nap time we went to eat at Piada and then to Barns and Nobles to let the boys play with the train tables.  Leo was allowed to pick out a train, he bought James.  We went home and built train tracks and that was it...fun and relaxing.

Max Is Everywhere!

Max is a very active little guy.  He is constantly getting into everything and climbing everything.  Leo was never into that as much, so it has been a big change for us.  
Max loves climbing and standing on things.  One of his favs is the train table.



Max Brushing His Teeth



Max is crazy about brushing his teeth.  It is his favorite thing to do!

Francis!

My favorite things; cute little donkeys and cute baby boys! 

Max, Mommy, and Francis hanging out!  
Easter Sunday was a busy day starting in Greenville for Church and visiting the Winners and ending in Delaware hanging out at the Fathbruckner house with Francis and all the ducks.   It was exhauting for Tyler and I, but the boys LOVED it.  Leo kept talking about how he got to see both Grandma's in one day and Max would not stop saying "duck duck".

Potty Training Is Finished!

Max decided that Moose needed to begin potty training now that Leo is finished
Leo has been not only using the potty, but early in May he started using just the big potty.  We don't even have to worry about traveling anymore.  He does great!  I am very proud of my big guy!

Spring Zoo Trip

Last family of four trip to the zoo.  We had a great time and it was so nice that Leo was able to wear big boy pants and had no accidents!  It was a great little trip, but it did end with Max falling and busting up his nose.  Which resulted in me over reacting and making Tyler drive him to the urgent care.  One minute of being in the waiting room and Max was running around playing with all the toys. We ended up not even staying to see the Doctor and he was just fine.  Just a little bruised and very tired from a long day at the zoo.  Tyler makes fun of me for taking him to the UC, but I would do it again, better safe then sorry!
The new wagon!

I love that Max likes to wear hats.  He looks so cute. 

Max's First Birthday Party!

I was pretty proud of my home-made banner :) 




Max was not into the cake.  He took a few bites and then went down for a nap

Max got a lot of cars for his birthday...and he loved it!
