Spring Break

How was your spring break?
Who is l-o-v-i-n-g this amazing weather we've had since spring break started?
Who's happy that the great outdoor weather coincided with Strong Start being closed so it wasn't a struggle to find something to do that didn't involve a million other parents and tots who had the same idea?
Me! Max! Gene!

our week started with Max randomly cleaning up after a spill he made after i gave him a paper towel. seriously, i didnt ask him to do it, he just bent down, connected the dots, and wiped it up. I wonder if he'll be the type to keep his room clean without my asking? Thanks baby!

after each work set (when i basically don't see him for 4 days in a row), Max always surprises me with a new skill. This week, he randomly climbed up this fence (look how high!) and held himself there in protest as i wouldnt let him walk up this sketchy looking stair case. Also, it appears husband has been teaching him some ninja moves as now he's randomly doing high kicks like this in the air on his own accord and on command. Hai ya!!

The more i react to a skill, the more Max seems to want to do it. In this case, the stairs. he wants to climb them all. the. time. At least 10 times a day up and down up and down. On this particular occasion, he found someone's TRASH to boot and wouldnt let go of it. Up and down, with this cup. Tears or play with the cup until he got tired of it? yep, cup. 

Did i mention he wants to go down the stairs too? This kid wants to go down the stairs on his own, i'm visualizing blood and broken bones, you can bet your life that my knuckles are white from my vice like grip!

Warm enough for multiple outdoor picnics and flowers of love from my sweetie! 

I hope your Spring break was just as fun filled as ours!
