Afternoon Birthday Fun
March 10, 2009
Afternoon
Max and Jay took me to "feed the ducks" this afternoon as part of our birthday celebrating. We had lots of fun. We took Max to "feed the ducks" last summer and he is now afraid of the ducks. Last year I thought it would be cool to let one of the geese eat from my hand and that got Max all upset. He hasn't feed them himself since that day. He enjoys watching us feed them. Today Jay had the seaguls (or creek-guls, I guess when you are at Drakes Creek) swooping in and catching the bread in midair. That was neat - o.
Lots of bread later, we headed over to the Kid's Kingdom to play. Max had a really good time and got really tired. He didn't even get upset when it was time to go. I had a wonderful birthday with all my family and friends but especially with my two boys. They really treat me like a Queen. I think that they must have sang "Happy Birthday Mommy" 3 dozen times today. Thank you! I love you LOTS!

Parsons 3-9 & 3-10 Birthdays
March 8, 2009
Tonight we celebrated Big Daddy's and my birthday at my parent's house. Mom fixed a feast of mashed potatoes with cheese, green beans, mac n cheese (by Jay), corn on the cob, grilled bbq pork chops (by Dad), cornbread & rolls, and of course fruit tea! It was so gooood. Then we topped it all off with a homemade cake by Mom. (Those are really rare these days, but we love it when we get one!) JP & Holly and Jon & Josie both got to make it home for the big event. Max taught them how he rides the back driveway hill on his big wheel and how to kick the soccer ball. It was a wonderful night of family time. I love it when we get to all be together. When I say all I mean it, we now collectively have 5 dogs when we are all home. Thanks for a spectacular evening.

Swimming Day 9
March 7, 2009
This is how we do it! Max had a better day today at swim school. Although . . . he has figured out the system. . . aprox 5 min into class he claims he "need to go poop". Well, he just went to the bathroom prior to entering the pool, but I motion to Jay and he comes in and takes him. Max sits on the pot for aprox 12 min of his 30 min class and hummm still can't go. Jay brings him back to the pool. Then his teacher tells me to stay for the first portion of the next class so that Max learns he is not escaping swim class. He went on to have a decent class. Yes, he still pitched a few fits, but those are a part of his everyday life now, so . . .

All in a Name

Jay helped me finish up my photo project this weekend. We got some molding pieces and then Mr. Chris cut it for me so that the angles would me right. Then Jay and I nailed them to the walls and now the project is complete. I have colorful 'whoville' painted frames, pictures that spell his name with objects dear to him, and then wood white borders to set the pictures. I am very pleased with the outcome. Max likes them too, I think, as least he shows it to anyone that comes in the house. So? What do you think?
