Two-Fisted Pudding Eater!

Max loves chocolate pudding and I have been trying to give him a little more freedom when eating so.....I decided to give him a spoon and a pudding cup and let him go at it! At first he would dip his spoon into the pudding and then put it in his mouth, but apparently he discovered that if you just use your hands you can get much more and it is way more fun!

These are a Few of my Favorite Things!

My sweet little boy who loves to be silly!

Max loves to crawl up on the couch with a good book and read!

More reading time!

Time flies by so fast. I can't believe he is going to be 2 years old in just about 6 weeks! He is such a sweet little boy, even though he is testing out the terrible twos! I remember when he would crawl up on my lap so I could read him a story and now he prefers to be independant and find his own comfy spot on the couch to sit and read. I remember when we were so anxious for him to walk.....and now we wonder what we were thinking! Some days I wonder if I am doing everything right and then he looks at me with those big blue eyes and tells me he loves me and my heart melts......so I guess we are doing something right :o)

Fun at the Jump Zone with Masha and Valentyna

The Look...Priceless!

Going down the BIG slide!

Having fun riding the giraffe!

We recently went to the Jump Zone with our friends Valentyna and Masha. It's a big warehouse full of bounce-houses and other fun things where the kids just go crazy and can be wild! Max had a ball, although he was not too fond of the bounce houses. He preferred to spend his time walking around to the back of the bounce houses to look at the machines to see how they worked. He is so his father's child :o) We had a really fun day bouncing, riding toys, playing air hockey and playing on the teeter-totter.

The Stacking of the Cups

One of Max's favorite things to do right now (for this week anyway :o) is to stack things and empty/fill things. The other evening Max went to the cupboard and got out some big cups and decided to play a game with daddy. I was suprised when he was willing to add his sippy cup to the top of the stack, but as you can see, it did not stay there long!
