Mino's Day!

Here is a full recap of Max's birthday activities, complete with about 50 pictures (you wouldn't expect any less from me right?)

Requirements for a successful 2nd birthday...


1. Lots of unwrapping presents

2. New tee-ball equipment


3. New truck, equipped with sippy cup holder and musical steering wheel.

4. Falling out of new truck (not really a requirement but I do you expect anything else from Maxi?)

5. Lunch with Isabel, Grandma Jackie and mom at Kneaders. I can't fail to mention the 5 dollar sucker he's eating! Good thing it was his birthday.

6. Enjoying a football shaped sugar cookie at Kneaders...yummy!

7. Having Hank home from Blanding a day early! Hank's sweatshirt says "watch your back" and he is looking the part.

8. Looking adorable with brother and your twiner "hawks".

9. Not cooperating with my photo shoot!


10. Enduring 5,000 kisses from me! He likes it...really.


11. Curious George cake and sugar cookies thanks to Flour Girls and Dough Boys Bakery.

12. Dancing with Elmo!

13. Being the MC for his own party...thanks to new keyboard and mic.


14. Jack came to the party, even after a long day at Primary Children's Hospital. Max loves all his cousins but he seems to be utterly obsessed with Jack at the moment. So glad he came!


15. A wrestling match with Dyson and Hank.

16. Singing Happy Birthday with the whole family.

17. Making a wish.



18. Customary photos with the grandparents. Grandpa Curt was REALLY happy!

Max wouldn't cooperate in any more pictures but thank you so much to everyone who made an effort to see him on his birthday. I am blown away by all the love that surrounds this little boy! I am so blessed and grateful to be his mother.

Where's the picture of me passed out in fetal position?
I'll let you pass this time because of the picture you posted of dad...w.o.w!
I think we need a re-do of Max's birthday... I was a bit preoccupied and need some Mino time.
