First week of May 2013

Yeah!  May is here!  May is a great month for us - (or me!)... Mother's Day...Anniversary...and Birthday!  We decided to take a long weekend and go to Florida over Mother's Day so we could take Max to the beach.  In preparation for the flights we bought some headphones so that Max could play on the iPad on the plane without disturbing anyone.

Max thought the headphones were pretty cool!

Hate myself in this picture but I love how he's looking at me, so because I love his sweet face so much I am posting this awful picture of me for all to see. (I hate my profile and always have)

It was a sad day, I had to get a new drivers license because mine was going to expire.  I finally had to give up my CA drivers license.  I loved this picture.  :(  I am now really a Texan.  :(  

It was another sad day.  When I drove home from work on 5/7 I had a surprise when I pulled up to our house.  They had begun construction on the empty lot next to us.  It's sure been nice having that space empty (even though it meant more weeds)!

Max really loves the iPad.  Thanks to the iPad he's now been exposed to Barney and Dora and asks to watch them.  Yuck!  I never thought I would let my kid watch that, but I do.  He also likes to play on our phones.  He can reach doorknobs but not completely turn them YET.  He now has started asking for the food that he wants during mealtimes.

I had to travel at the beginning of May for work and when I got back Max knew all kinds of new things thanks to his time with his daddy.  Peter taught Max how to ride his scooter down the driveway with his legs up.  (cute but I'm not a big fan of my child cruising down the driveway toward the street even though Peter catches him each time).  Peter also taught him how to run and kick a ball.  I guess while Momma's away, the boys will definitely play!
