Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
Tick tock, tick tock. Come on baby! It’s your DUE DATE today!!
While we wait, we sure are glad to have these people in town…
Bye bye GJ!
Waiting on GJ to come back!
Where’s GJ?
Lots of drawing and coloring going on…
and telling Daddo what to draw and color!
We’re keeping busy but sure are ready to meet #3!
First, no, I haven’t had the baby yet. Thanks for checking but I promise I’ll let you know when s/he gets here!
Second, we went to the circus! The strobe lights, the thrills, the stunts! It really is a fun show. The boys were excited and each got to pick out a treat…
Spencer did great and, honestly, was more into his light up toy than the show in front of him I think!
Maxwell was mesmerized.
We all loved the tight rope walkers…
and the elephants…
but, no surprise, the boys’ favorite part was the tigers! Roar!
Maxwell was disappointed that there were no lions but thought the clowns were his second favorite part. Spencer also kept talking about the camels. I could have done without the poodle bit but, all in all, another great show!
Circus last year, and the year before!
See you tomorrow!
TGIF! Today, 1.23, seems like a good day to have a baby, huh? Fingers crossed that actually comes true! In the meantime, we’ll be here on the couch…
and because it’s cute, here’s Maxwell explaining two of his recent drawings to Robert…
Can’t see the videos? click here and here. Make it a great weekend!
Around here this week? More time at the park enjoying the beautiful weather…
more time on the iPad – with buddies!…
more drawing…
and more cuteness in his new “army man” pants!
Mostly? More waiting on #3! Come on baby!
While Spencer’s way into the iPad these days, Maxwell is way into drawing. He’ll spend 2 hours in the afternoon at the table with plain paper and his markers just making picture after picture. I love it.
I love how creative he is. I never tell him what to draw or how to draw it and I love seeing what he comes up with. Considering he’s not quite 4.5, I think they’re pretty darn good! Some of his recent masterpieces…
A tiger – of course. We’re still pretty obsessed with big cats around here and he draws a lot of tigers, lions, jaguars, etc…
Our house – notice the garage! – with all of us inside…
A construction site complete with orange cones at the bottom and “asphalt”. I love how the hard hats sit up above the worker’s heads!…
A picture of himself and Robert…this obviously made Robert ridiculously happy!
A belated Christmas scene – note the chimney with Santa at the top. I love how he ran out of room to write his name so just wrote the “well” on top of the “max!”…
An “army man” complete with a hunting gun shooting a deer! eek! Notice the red spot on the deer’s leg where he shot him! Not really sure where this idea came from since Robert isn’t a hunter but…it’s still good regardless! I do like the green and gray camo clothes…
Him riding his blue and orange bike, complete with orange helmet…
Dinosaurs around an exploding volcano! That’s a “long-neck-a-saurus”, a T-Rex, and a “tromp-a-saurus!”…
He had told me he wanted pictures of “big cats” for his room so I looked and looked all over Etsy to find some that would work. I did order some but then decided that his “big cats” are better than any picture I could buy so I just hung two of his. I think he was pretty proud to see his own artwork on the wall!
Love my little artist!
