Big girl bed

March 14, 2018

As I mentioned last week, there have been some big changes for Samantha around here! After a looong construction process, we finally had Samantha’s “big girl” room to a place where she could move in! Even though we’ve been planning to move her for months, it happened quickly and I’m so glad I snapped these pictures 2 days before we moved her…

My sweet baby in her final days in her crib. Sniff sniff. I told my mom it was kind of sad to be packing up her crib after having one in my house for 7.5 years. She told me I could always have another! Yeah….I wasn’t quite THAT sad! ha!

Samantha is 3 years and 1 month and was more than ready for her big girl bed. She was so excited to be there and looks so cozy piled up in between all of those pillows…

She’s slept great. We’re working through leaving the hallway or bathroom light on, but overall I can’t complain at all. She sleeps all night, takes great naps, and absolutely loves her wonderful big girl room! I’m still waiting on a few things to come in and then will share all the pics!

Leader of the Week

March 13, 2018

Maxwell is leader of the week in his class this week! I got to go read some of his favorite books to the class and Maxwell picked If I Built a House, If I Built a Car, and The Chupacabra Ate the Candelabra. All three were a hit! I then got to have lunch with him where the conversations are always interesting….and Maxwell basically ignores me but I know he’s actually really glad I’m there. πŸ™‚

Yesterday he took the poster he made about himself to school. He did a fantastic job as always!

Go Speed Racer!

March 8, 2018

Being a Tiger Scout, Maxwell got to participate in the Pinewood Derby for his troop.

He and Robert worked hard on the car – Maxwell painted every bit of it! He even free-handed that Alabama A on top and the numbers on the side!

We went to the derby on Tuesday night and it was great! They have a fancy digital track and it really was fun for the whole family. There were some pretty impressive looking cars too! The boys were pretty proud when they got their car weighed – it has to be 5 oz or less and Maxwell’s car “The Crimson Tide” weighed in at exactly 5 oz! Score!

After dinner and plenty of goofing around by the scouts, the races started.

Even more excited when he won his second heat!

He lost his third heat – but pretty funny that he lost it to The Auburn Attacker! ha!

Everyone had fun and behaved so nicely – especially these two…
