Happenings

June 5, 2015

What’s been going on around here the past week or so? Lots!

Poor Samantha is learning the realities of having 2 older brothers and that it means having to wear things like boy pjs…

and a boy sleep sack. At least she’s surrounded by pink lovies! Β πŸ™‚

Thanks to the space in our new driveway, the boys have been loving getting out the fire truck! It’s even reignited Maxwell’s love of all things firemen and he’s been wearing his firetruck t-shirts all week! Hooray!

Last weekend we went over to Jessica and Watson’s house for a little bbq with friends. It was great – good food, a sprinkler for the kids, and popsicles for all!

The boys have been thoroughly enjoying the nice weather and playing outside. As I mentioned last week, we got Maxwell a new orange scooter. It was a 2 wheel one and, while he was doing pretty good with it, it was a little difficult for him to ride so I got him another one with 3 wheels and he’s been zipping all around on that thing! Well, Spencer decided he needed a scooter too and kept trying to take Maxwell’s so I went over to Wal-Mart and got him one of his own – a RadioFlyer “My First Scooter”…

He was happy with that for about 5 minutes then just wanted Maxwell’s scooter again. Lesson learned – I should have just gotten them the same thing from the beginning. So, after asking Spencer over and over that he was sure he wanted “geen” and not orange like Maxwell, I ordered him his own big boy scooter.

He could not be happier! It came on Wednesday afternoon and they immediately took off on those things…

and were back at it by 8:00 Friday morning!

I have to say, it was the right decision. These scooters are great and after just one day of practice, Spencer is zipping around on that thing with no problems. Maxwell is a speed demon on his! The scooters are these – Micro Mini. Highly recommend!

Finally, Robert had to travel for work this week which meant dinner at the Mexaurant for me and the kids…
