Family Love Part 1


We've been so lucky to have extended family time this month (and more coming up - Aunt Tina, we're ready!). First, Grammy visited us for a wonderful week...Unfortunately, she saw a true Florida summer (sunny mornings, rainy afternoons), but of course the Energizer bunny didn't let it get her down ;)
Max had so much fun and of course especially enjoyed getting SPOILED with gifts. He is now obsessed with his truck (below), sprinkler, and water table. We haven't had much time with the sand box yet, as we always have rain warnings, but I'm sure when we break it out there will be another round of obsession! And the daily baseball practice was unforgettable.
Wish I had taken more pics, but the joy is quite evident below and thank gosh we had Grammy to "kid-ize" our new yard...

Artist in Residence

We are so lucky to have our new babysitter - Amanda. She is great with Max, connects with him, plays with him, and even likes Lincoln.

As an added bonus, she is an artist and photographer. She sent me a bunch of Max pictures over the weekend that she took and edited. I thought they were pretty darn cute!
