Main Street

After Max's appointment we decided to go to Main Street to enjoy the weather and have a picnic along the Riverfront. I also found a part time job at a new shoe boutique called Shoe La La and I start tomorrow! I can't wait it's been over two years since I worked last. J

2 Year Check Up

Max's official birthday was the 9th, so we took him for his checkup the following Monday. He's already 3 feet tall (88%) for his age and 30 lbs. Anyone want to start bets as of when Max will pass me up in height? ; ) J

Happy 2nd Birthday!

We celebrated Max and Scarlett's birthday on October 2nd. We had quite a large celebration! The entire Zimmermann clan was in town. Thanks to my parents for hosting the party and helping prepare the Italian feast. Also thanks to all my family and friends who were there to help us celebrate! J

Our Family Photo

This is our family photo we got done over a month ago. Ours turned out okay considering Max was tired, but most of the photos of Max, Scarlett and my parents were just BAD! We didn't even attempt to get one with both Max and Scarlett. Also notice the firm crotch grab I've got on Max : ) Haha! 

"If I had a million boogers, I'd still pick you."

He really wasn't picking his nose. He was just realizing he could fit his finger up there. So I snapped a photo and find it quite funny that the top portion of his shirt says GOOD.

Happy Easter

 We celebrated Easter at my parent's this year. The list of people who attended were Ronnie, Janet, Jackie, Greg, Jenifer, Jeanne, Jim, Johnny, Grandma Z, Marie, Tony my Mom's brother Ron and his wife Dawn, Zach, Allison, my parents and us three. So we had a full house with lots of good food. Check out my awesome Lemon-Raspberry cake, courtesy of Betty Crocker. We tried to let Max hunt for eggs but he wasn't to interested although he did collect a little garden gnome and put that in his basket. The weather was great so everyone spent most of their time sitting outside and relaxing. Jeanne took our family photo which turned out really nice.  J

I'm a Big Boy!!

So I've been wanting to give this potty training a try. I'm hoping if I start earlier it will be easier for him to get a hang of it. So we got Max his new potty chair on Saturday. We tried sitting him on it two different times, both attempts were unsuccessful but he sat on the potty for at least ten minutes each time which I thought was a great start. So on Easter Sunday before his bath I sat him on it and he went! Then later at my parents house he went again!! So far today we haven't had any successful attempts but we'll keep trying : )  J
