Max's little words

He has really began speaking so much. He loves to go down into the culdesac to ride his plasma car. He rides it a top speed acroos the circle and smashes into the curb. Even when he flies off and lands on his head he says "I fall off" and gets back on. There is a cute 3 yr. old boy who moved in in the circle. He has a BMX bike with training wheels. He calls it a cycle-motor and love to pretend to ride it like a motorcycle. He has also developed a love for bulldozers and big trucks! I think Max and ryder will stay good buds. As well as Ada- she really like ryder too. He isa cute kid. Today we hiked in Emigration canyon and Ada wal;ed the entire way- almost 4 miles. We were so proud of her. Her B'day is approaching and she got a razor scooter for her birthday. She got her early and is riding it well down in the circle. Max also says things like "dump it", Thank you- Your welcome. Bless you. He got a haircut this past week and really is well behaved for the cut. He has become really easy to put to sleep. Only with dad though. With mom he is a molester. He loves to cuddle and has to keep a boob in his hand! It is soo annoying. I try to get him to stop and he just cries. He also loves his friend Charlie and can't wait to get to play at his house. Ada starts kindergarden this fall and is so happy about the chance to learn. I hope she will do well. max also starts school this year and hopefully his experience will be successful also.

 
 

Max celebrated his 2 yr. old party MArch 17. Grandma was in town and made eggrolls and flank steak. she also made home-ade cupcakes. Her visit flew by. We started the visit with a trax ride down to Gateway. max loves trains and he was so ecstatic to get on the train. He just stared out the window. Grandma read plenty of books to Max and they played cars and blocks. Max was so happy she was here. I worked a few hours while I had free babysitter. Soren, Charlie, Tristan, and Oscar, Sara Grace Lily Azia were all in attendance for the party. It was crazy. Next year I will take it out of the house. How do you really entertain 2 yr.olds?
Now that the weather is nice Max loves being outside. He plays from dawn to dusk outside. He loves his new water table and digging in the dirt. Ada and Max both got a haircut. They look adorable. Ada had her first recital. She played Song of the Wind. She is liking violin and has been motivated to practice. I will keep on her. We also bought a zoo membership for max's b day present. Hopefully we get alot of use of it. Aspen has been great. She will hang out front while we work in teh flower beds. I also got a neighbor girl on board for the summer to watch the kids so i can mountain bike ride. Life is good.

Our visit with the Fendler cousins

Well the Frank Fendler gang skis...They ski from dawn til dusk. Tommy and Danny can ski through anything. They had a blast playing together and it was sad to seethem leave. Ada loved every minute and Max finally hugged Frank by the end of the trip. We are excited to see them this summer.

Update on the kids milestones

So Max is officially a toddler. 22mo and still nursing! Ahhh! But he is so cute I just can't say no. His favorite words are "look", Book, shoe, "there it is", mamamamam forever. He loves helicopters and airplanes. One night while he was sleeping he awoke, sat straight up and said, look" then laid down and went back to sleep. He is particular about his shoes and his coat. He is breaking out of his shell and likes to play at Christy's house. He doesn't have very many friends hisown age. He is usually forced to play with the girls. Charlie and Soren are his friends too. He is not a great eater. Can't seem to get many veggies down him, but he will eat fruit. He is a rather plesant personality, except when he hits and kicks. He is a bit possesive of me and hits Ada often when she is trying to get my attention. He can ride his plasma car and almost peddle hi bike. He loves the pool and goes down the small froggy slide by himself at the Cottonwood pool. Definitely not afraid of water in his eyes. He will start a preschool program in fall and swim lessons! Yeah...
Ada is 41/2 and is quite mature at times. She really loves craft and projects at this age. Tonight she wrote her own story about a horse. She is graduating from twinkle variations on the violin and still fights me about practicing. She is now working on Song of the Wind. She is jut slowly thinking about llearning to read. She can id all her letters and numbers up to 10. She has great friends and is very social. Her eating habits have slipped and now she protests lots of veggies also. I think she likes to control us at dinner. Dessert is soon to dissappear. She loves her dance pre-school and will start kindergarden in fall. Sshe is kind and compassionate to animals and misses Darby dog everyday when she becomes tired. She is learning to navigate the computer and loves her ski lessons. She is going down the water slide by herself at Fairmont and still love sthe water and swimming. She really could care less about TV shows at this age and Max likes Sid the Science Kid, trains and trucks. That is all for now.
