I think she probably just wanted me to so she could get points or something, but it turns out I ended up getting free stuff! They offer you free stuff, once you get it in the mail you review it and post it to all your social media sites. Then you get points for doing so. WELL...I got the most delicious package the first time. <br />

Let me tell you! This stuff is absolutely delish! I don't know that I would have purchased it off the shelf if I saw it. One thing, Max is allergic to peanuts...so I'd probably have stuck to Nutella. But, now that I know!?! Wow...we've pretty much eaten it with pretzels, Salerno Butter Cookies, or just straight off the spoon. </div>

I am lucky I got any pictures at all. It seems like Easter came so quick this year and it was here and gone before we knew it. It seems like life is just zooming by like a train these days and I'm hanging on the back flying behind it...along for the ride. I know everyone feels this way, but whew! I would love a breather. Anywho...here are a couple pictures from our Easter. <br />

This year we decided to change preschools to get Max closer to home, near where we live. Hopefully he will be there with some kids that will be in his kindergarten class next year. He goes three days a week, all day! The school he attends is the same preschool that Michael went to and, up until her recent retirement, the director was Michael's teacher. </div>

He was so nervous so we talked about it. I think he was nervous to play in front of other people and that he wouldn't be good at it. He said he "felt better after we talked about it". Once practice was over he was so excited and now counts down the days until the next soccer practice. <br />

Here's number 3 for the orange team!<br />

The Tumble Bus came and the kids had a blast. They basically turned this school bus into a tumbling ring and had organized activities for the kids. It was really cool and the kids were so excited to see the big bus pull up to the party.<br />

We always have so much fun on our visits to Chicago. We are definitely always sure to see Great Grandma Helen. The kids loved visiting her at her new place, eating icecream and popcorn. They were so good sitting and waiting (a long time) for their dinner. So fun! Thanks for letting us visit Grammie Helen.</div>

One of Max's favorite things to do is go to Fair Oaks Farm. It is sort of like a diary museum all about cows and how they operate the farm to be self sustaining. It really is a neat place. Allie LOVES cows...from a distance. She is not quite so fond of them up close. We were lucky enough to get to see a baby be born that day. Acutally they have several baby's born there a day. The whole process is a bit gross, and when I asked Max if he wanted to leave he said no. He said it was kind of gross, but really cool to see. So funny and grown up!<br />

Oh...yes, that is a bandaid. She fell several weeks ago and got a scrape...literally a scrape! She has picked at it, and dug at it until it is a hole. So... no we keep a bandaid on it so it will hopefully clear up soon.Heidihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11455813358838767778noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3983560456338704528.post-67246076620732277632012-05-04T14:59:00.003-05:002012-05-10T07:23:39.732-05:00Mother's Day Observance<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Today was the Mother's Day observance at Max's preschool. It was such a nice day. I was actually the mom helper in the class today so I got to be there for the whole class. Every time I am in the class Max's teacher and her aid always tell me how funny Max is. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing ;)<br />
<br />
The kids made banana muffins for their mom's and they also had some fruit for everyone to enjoy. It was just wonderful. The kids also sang songs and had gifts for the moms. One of our gifts was this short survey the kids answered. When Mrs. Messick handed Max his survey he announced "Mommy I drew you with one eye"...why thanks buddy, I didn't know I was a cyclops. Later, when i asked him why he drew me with one eye and he said he ran out of room. Here were the results of Max's little survey:<br />
<br />
My mom is <u>20</u> years old.<br />
My mom's favorite color is <u>pink</u>.<br />
My mom always says "<u>Can you please get your pajamas on?</u>"<br />
My mom is very good at <u>knitting</u>.<br />
I love my mom because <u>she helps me finger knit</u>.<br />

We went to the farm up at the local high school. The high schools here in Harford County have what they call a Magnet Program. Which means, each school has a specialty. The high school nearest our house has an agriculture program, so they have their own farm. I was actually suprised at how much they had at the school. Two sheep, two alpacas, two bunnies, two cows...no it's not Noah's Ark...they do have three horses and some chicks. We learned a lot on the trip and got to pet the animals and feel some of their fur that had just been sheared off. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
This was the biggest horse I had ever seen. I think his head was bigger than some of the kids.</div>

I love this picture of Max with Ernie Alpaca. He wouldn't go any closer to it, especially since the teacher that lead our tour said they spit. I think it's hilarious that Ernie is looking over Max's shoulder posing. </div>

OK, this needs a little explanation. My Grandma recently moved to a independent living facility and has her own beautiful apartment. This is her bed. She's 90 and she gets into this bed. I couldn't believe how tall the bed was and had Max stand next to it as a reference. It just seemed so funny to me. I think I would have a hard time getting in that bed.<br />

Tyler's Tender is a cute train themed restaurant that has a working train inside. The train brought our food (Allie pointed at the train and so sadly whispered "Fry Fries" as it went by her with someone elses food.) She wasn't so thrilled with the train ride. <br />

Also, I just realized I didn't update on how Allie is doing with her walking. Infants and Toddlers came out and said she had no confidence in her feet and ankles. She has hyper mobility in her joints and her ankle bone nearly touches the ground when she's standing. She has small feet for her size and they still have that baby puffiness to them. So she's just scared that her feet and ankles are not going to hold her up. They recommended that we buy insoles for her shoes and see how that helps. They told us it wouldn't be an immediate fix, but it would possibly give her the confidence she needed to let go. She's been cruising the furniture since about October, but just would never let go. Well we ordered the inserts, they came very quick and a week and two days later, she was walking! Unbelievable! We were in Indiana and Poppa Legs kept working with her. He finally got her to stand by herself in the middle of the room. Then all the sudden she just stood by herself. The night before we were to come back home she stood up in the middle of the room (for I think the 2nd or 3rd time). I looked at my mom and asked if she thought she would be walking by the end of the week. Grammie no sooner said "I don't think so" and Allie took 5 steps across the room to throw herself on my bed that was on the floor! Funny all this happened while in her feety jammies, not in her new Stride Rites or her insoles that Grammie got her. Such a stinker!Heidihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11455813358838767778noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3983560456338704528.post-52442537122415572812012-01-17T15:27:00.001-06:002012-01-17T15:27:49.495-06:00Quickie updateAllie is still NOT walking. This is a sore spot with all of us. It is so frustrating and upsetting. We can't figure out why she just won't let go of anything. Sure, she walks around the furniture and she will push things around, she just won't let go. She will even walk holding one of our fingers, so we are not holding her up so much, but she just won't let go. It think all of us have had dreams that she is walking, but no luck. Infants and Toddlers is coming in February to evaluate her, hopefully we will be able to call and cancel that appointment. She will pee pee on the potty a couple times a day, if we are home and she has the chance. This all got started because she stood up in the tub and told daddy she had to go, he put her on the potty and she went. So we are working on it. She has been BINK FREE for two days (hopefully Grammy won't give in today). This is amazing because I feel like she is getting all her teeth at once, but it needed to happen. Her face is really rashy all around her mouth and we are guessing it is because of that bink. <br />
Max has been doing really well. He is just a really funny kid, still, always and hopefully forever will be. There are definitely moments with him. For instance, he HATES dinner and fights us about it nearly every night. The problem is, if we just let him not eat, he gets up in the middle of the night crying that his tummy hurts. Oh the joys of parenting! He got a Kidz Bop CD for Christmas and knows every word to every song. He remembers everything and tells us all the time he is an elephant. He loves school and next year will be going three days, all day. I think he will strive in that environment and do great things. <br />
<br />
We went to the aquarium yesterday. I was pointing out different fish to Max and tell him their names and asking him if he could find them in the tanks. When we were nearly through, he said "Mommy, how do you know about all these fish?" I hated to tell him their pictures and their names were right above their tanks. I think all of our favorite was seeing <a href="http://youtu.be/YSdMq9WEP8w" target="_blank">Calypso</a> the three finned sea turtle and of course the dolphin show.Heidihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11455813358838767778noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3983560456338704528.post-60104733813790522732011-12-29T15:03:00.000-06:002012-01-17T15:05:17.718-06:00Merry Christmas.<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: left;">

You can barely see it, but there is also a key there. See, we have no fireplace, but we have an ornament that has this little poem attached:</div>
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;">
Our stockings hang upon a wall. </div>

Santa, how will you get in here?</div>

They were pretty happy with all their loot.

Well with Birthday and Christmas celebrations in abundance we nearly missed going to see Santa. Allie probably would have been happier if we did. She did not like Santa at all. Max has always loved Santa so he was excited. The mall here has a great display for kids. There is a giant mailbox and when you put your letter in snow puffs out, there is a naughty/ nice meter to let you know what Santa thinks, and it snows every few minutes. So neat!</div>

Max could have sat and talked with Santa forever. Momma was anxious because of the long line waiting and watching, but Santa didn't seem to mind. I asked Max what he told Santa he wanted and he said he wanted "all the toys in the book". Santa asked, "Even the girl toys?" "No, Silly Santa"<br />

This was a much happier Allie after she pouted through getting her picture taken! She kept taking her hand off the candy cane and it looked like she was smoking it. It was hilarious, everytime I tried to get her picture, she would put her hand back up.<br />

Well, once Grammie and Pop and Auntie and Ella got here we of course had more celebrating to do. This is where it gets a little crazy because there are birthday and Christmas celebrations happening all at once. We tried to keep the birthday special by doing that one day and Christmas a different day, but at this age, I'm not sure it really even mattered.<br />

Somehow I missed getting a picture of the adorable kitchen set Grammie and Pop got, but all the kids had fun playing with it and digging through the bucket of food. <br />
It was so fun seeing the three grandkids play together. Especially the little girls. They just love each other so much and it was so fun to see the "girlfriends" get excited to see each other. Every time one of them got up from their nap or up in the morning they wanted to go see where the other was. It was so funny.<br />

For Max it was like a month of Birthdays. Except, when it's over, it's over and then we have a 4 year old that wants toys every day until next December. <br />
<br />
On his birthday we went to dinner at <a href="http://www.bbdairy.com/" target="_blank">Brooms Blooms</a>. For friends and family that aren't local, this is a farm that makes and sells their own ice cream and they also have a lunch and dinner menu. We love everything there. They also have a train display at Christmas time so it was just the perfect spot for the birthday boy's dinner. <br />

Everytime anyone asked Max what he was doing for his birthday he would tell them he was going bowling. We aren't quite sure where he got this idea from, but Grammie and Pop felt they couldn't deny the kid bowling. So that's just what we did. A couple of his friends came with us and we had a great time.</div>

I can't believe it! We have a 4 year old! For the past couple weeks he has really been focused on being a "big boy". As excited as I am to see him growing up and experiencing new things, I really just want him to stop. I want him to stay little and always be my best bud! </div>

He is such a great big brother and loves Allie so much and she loves him. She gets so excited when she hears him coming. I think sometimes she will jump off the changing table while I'm changing her because she's so excited he's coming. She also gets really upset if he doesn't come, sometimes I have to call him in to come talk to her just so she'll stop crying. She loves being around him. I hope that lasts, although I'm not that naive. I just want them to be friends and watch out for each other. </div>

We are going out to dinner tonight to Brooms Blooms. Max loves their icecream and they have a train display set up right now for Christmas, so perfect for a 4 year olds birthday! Tomorrow we are going bowling and his friend Landon is coming. He is so excited he can hardly stand it! He has told everyone he is going tomorrow for his birthday! </div>
<br />
He did get to open a few small things this morning before preschool. He was really very excited. OH! And this 4 year old loves Mater! (Check out the slippers)<br />

It was so fun. They had turkey (lunchmeat), homemade applesauce that they made themselves, snackmix with popcorn, Bugles, M&Ms and Rasins. The kids were all pretty cute too...wanna see?<br />
