Way Back When-esday...Beach Bums

I finally printed out some pictures a few weeks ago when Snapfish had 100 prints for $5-such a great deal I couldn't pass it up! I am so far behind, but I did January-June 2009. I came across this pic and it is one of my all time favorites of my sweet babies. We had such an awesome time at the beach at Longboat Key--even though I put Summer on the pic, I think it was actually our Spring Break. I'm too lazy and tired to go back and fix it now. I love how Emma and Max hold hands!(even without us asking during picture time) She may "mother" him and boss him around a little, but they love each other so much. We are heading to the beach this weekend to stay with our friends Jon and Cathy and I'm looking forward to a fun weekend!

The Clayhouse

My sister and I took the kids to a local paint your own pottery place called The Clayhouse. They had a blast and even better we were the only ones there! Max chose an Elephant--of course-- that is his all-time favorite animal. Emma was very indecisive on her choice of pottery. She really wanted to paint a teapot. The only one they had was a little too pricey(and big) for my taste. After much deliberation she chose a cute little bunny for Easter. My niece Allie chose a ballerina slipper. Adorable! Brooke painted baby Noah's footprints on a plate too. I can't wait to see how everything turned out after being glazed!

Tales of a Three Year Old

This kid cracks me up...Tonight he wanted to wrestle with me. So I picked him up and started to tickle his belly and his laughs were so hilarious we were both rolling on the floor laughing. He was so happy to be back in school today. He definitely missed his little buddies. He had almost a two week hiatus after spending some time with Aunt Brooke, Gram, and his cousins(and being sick with strep throat & a double ear infection) and then Spring Break last week with Mommy & Emma. The only downside was the amount of rain we had today...it was insane. It also meant no playground time for my very active little boy. He played some indoor gator golf and got some of that energy out though. He kept asking me if it was bedtime--starting at 6pm--I think he was confused because it was so dark outside. It's going to be a long week with all of the rain that's expected. I guess I'll have to bust out our craft supplies and make some spring crafts this week. I just love this sweet face...I really can't get enough of it! We did get his hair cut over the weekend.Finally, no more fluff!
