Photos by Maxwell

August 13, 2013

Apparently Maxwell has been working on mastering the art of the “selfie”…

While I do think he could have picked a slightly more flattering angle…

I do applaud his persistence in not stopping until he got the exact right pic.

I just never know what’s going to end up in my camera roll these days!  🙂

Bend it

August 12, 2013

We had a great weekend and, on Saturday, got Maxwell all signed up to play Sunday Soccer! It’s the Birmingham United Soccer Association and they have an “Under 4” division where they practice and then play on 5 different Sundays in the fall. 30 minutes of practice, 30 minutes of a little 4 on 4 game. I can’t wait to go watch…pretty sure it’s going to be hilarious!

You have to get a ball, some shinguards, dark colored shorts and cleats (optional). We stopped by Mountain Brook Sports after signing him up and got a size 3 soccer ball – gotta start practicing at home! We asked Maxwell if he wanted to play soccer and he didn’t even know what it was! ha! Nothing a few youtube videos and a little play in the backyard can’t fix!

Robert even signed up to be a coach. I think that will make it even more fun for Maxwell!

This one will be out there with his big brother soon enough…

He’s already pretty fast just on hands and knees!

(love that sunshine!)

I’ll be very interested to see how Maxwell does. He definitely has natural athletic ability…we’ll just have to wait and see how he acts in an organized game with other kids. Either way, we’re going to make it fun!

Goal!!

Super duper!

August 9, 2013

A few things of interest around here this week…

Spencer is getting a top tooth!  One of his front teeth is breaking through and he’s handled it like a champ.  I was totally surprised considering Maxwell didn’t get any teeth at all until 1 and Spencer is going to have bottom and top teeth by 10 months!

Spencer looooves watermelon.  He’s been eating it up all by himself at dinner the past few nights.  Wishing big brother would follow his lead!

We’re ready for the weekend and think it’s gonna be SUPER!

Standing

August 8, 2013

Spencer is getting really good at pulling all the way up to standing now.  The past 3 mornings when I’ve gone into his room he’s been standing up in his crib!  Go Spencey!

Here he is testing that balance by the couch last week…

Cute chunky monkey on his tip toes…

Of course he’s always being entertained…

Big Brother’s not chunky, but he definitely acts like a monkey sometimes!
