things i love lately.

and in no particular order, just things (mostly people) that make my heart smile 🙂 .

‘workin’ my ‘puter!’ max got this little leap pad computer for his birthday, and he has loved it! we have loved it too, now that we’ve figured out he knows all of his letters (most days ;))! this one- smart as a whip i tell ya!

‘push little basket, me!’ this has been a blessing and a curse… he love, loves it so that’s the good part. the not so good part? nearly running over other trader joe’s patrons, and not being able to fit all of our groceries inside. picture me with my 25 week baby belly trying to corral max while holding half the groceries…not pretty i’m sure.

max reading a story to our ‘honey bun.’ it is sort of a different experience this time around not finding out the gender. we’re really so excited for the surprise, but we really weren’t a fan of calling the baby ‘it.’ our dearest dani (who’s been through this before) said they would always think of an endearing name for their baby so it didn’t feel so ambiguous. we decided on honey bun for our little bun in the oven 🙂 . i kind of can’t believe we have only 15 weeks left, and if the doctor’s feelings are right, we could meet this baby before then. it feels a lifetime away but right around the corner at the same time.

max changing the oil in his ‘red truck.’ he is most definitely a truck guy!

max getting to fish for his very first time with ry and his dad. what a fun day we had celebrating Father’s Day!

celebrating 6 joy- filled years with this man. he is more than anything i could dream of- so thankful for our journey together! and thankful for a night out in Santa Fe while grandmom and grandpa stayed the night with our sweet.

max inherited the love of ‘pock-corn’ from his daddy! we were both so proud to see ry’s latest movie up on the big screen at the premiere for cast and crew. max stayed awake for the whole movie (until past 10- eek). when ry was talking after the movie max yelled out ‘yay daddy’ and started clapping. i know all of us were more than a little choked up, one of the sweetest moments ever.
