Happy Birthday to my accident prone, driven, perfectionistic, snuggly boy! This little man is constantly fighting to keep up with his older brother and he's quite successful at it. He was swimming at 2 1/2 yrs, riding a bike without training wheels at 3 and writing his name long before he started preschool this year. The boys is on an accelerated track through life! Unfortunately his fast pace brings a lot of bumps, scrapes, and bruises his way but all in all he brushes them off with ease and keeps up the momentum.
I LOVE him fiercely :)
Funny Max story:
This happened in October of last year. We were sitting in church and Max leaned over and said, "Mom, why does my sum (thumb) smells like poop?"
I leaned over, examined his "sum" and replied,
"Probably because there's poop on it!"
Favorite Max words of the past:
Pocket=Fawkeeit
Marshmellow=Smosh-shmello
I think I can, I think I can=I see see san, I see see san
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MR. MAXWELL!

I took these three cuties to see:
We came back to the house to have cookie-cake and ice cream and open presents.
Ummm, the "4" candle is backward?! ha.
We kept the gifts simple this year. James gave Max The Lion King, Aspen bought him his trusty "life saver" (I will not be the one to tell him it is a light saber--sp? b/c life saver is far too cute), the boxing gloves are from Daddy, and the backpack and lunch box are from me.
A Happy Birthday to my cousin, Helen (same bday as Max) who is one of my very favorite people on earth! She is the big 3-0! When she asked Max how old he thinks she is he is said, "Ummm, 9?"
I spent SO much of my childhood with her she feels like a sister to me.
I LOVE YOU, HELLIE!
