I think he can dance! Do you?

I am amazed by people that can do things like this....I love this show!!!

Lunchtime...

Yesterday Max has his first "big boy" lunch. I decided that instead of making and/or buying jars of food I would just start making regular meals for him. Sooooo....today he had his very 1st grilled cheese. And he loved it!

I of course forgot to grab the camera but he was so cute. I just cut it up into tiny little pieces and he chowed down. He at most of it, probably a little more than 1/2, which was much more than I was expecting him too....

My little boy is growing up!!! :)

Playing In The Dirt...

It must be a genetic trait. Karl loves to play in the dirt and so does Max. :)

Tuesday night I had a hair appointment and Robert (Shannon's son - Shannon works with Karl) was going to baby-sit Max....since I was only going to be gone for a little while we decided to just have Max stay at Shannon's house and then Karl or I could come get him, depending on whomever got done first....

Well Max was a big help because Shannon had some trees that needs to be planted....it looks like they all had a horrible time...he he! Thanks for the great pics Shannon!!!

More Pics From the Hand State....

Because my Mom Oh so sweetly asked for them, here they are....

Here is Max and Auntie Jill....


Here is Mackenzie, Tess, and Max. Mackenzie was cheese balling it up. Every time Jill would say "show us your teeth" she would get this huge grin on her face....HILARIOUS!

Here is Max and Uncle Carl. You can see that this was the beginning of the end for any smiles. He was getting to the point that nothing was pleasing him!


Ok. I guess I was wrong. We got one more out of him!

Here is Beautiful Miss Ava! You can see her along with her Mom & Dad (Ken & Jodi) on their McClouth Montage Blog to the right....Just gorgeous!

Here is Max and Aunt Tree...Max was getting treated like a King and Aunt Tree was giving him water from her water bottle...Hmmmm, do you think he liked it! Check out the water drooling from his chin. Too Cute!

Here is Max & Nana playing outside....looks like he is eating your hair Nana!!! LOL!

You can almost see that big ole' grin he is giving....

There it is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SlideShow...

Ok I tried to be all technical and upload all the pics of our trip to Michigan, and I thought I was all cool and had it working....I was wrong.

I went back to my page and when I looked at my blog I realized that only a few pics came up?? Then I tried to add the slide show to the side of my blog and again realized that didn't work either. Sooooo....Since I am not technically inclined I will just be adding pics the old fashioned way....:) I am not going to post them all but I will do a few at a time! Enjoy....

Max was obsessed with Camerin...I swear that kid was trying to eat his face off. It was hilarious!

The look on Max's face is hysterical! I was crying when I saw this!!!

Here are all three boys...they were watching Sponge Bob and you can clearly see Max was fascinated!

Here is Papa Lee with all three boys, Papa Lee was having a hard time keeping Max on his lap....it was soo cute!

The boys were sharing their bubbles with Max and he was loving it!! You can actually see his hair starting to come in here.... :)

Here is Max with his Great-Great Grandma Reid....he was a little zoned out by this point.

I am not sure how this picture was taken but I love it!!!!

Here is Max and his Great Grandma Russ....again you can tell he is about pictured out!

Here is Papa Jim with "The Black Tornado"....that is what we call Magoo and Izzaboo. It's hard to tell but they are both on the couch with him acting like fools...check out the teeth on Izzaboo!!! Hilarious! Poor Jim!

Our Trip to Michigan...

Beauty That Counts...

This month I am featuring one of our amazing lipstick colors - Apple Berry.

Make a beautiful difference for women and children around the world. True beauty. It begins inside and grows from a spark of generosity. It can light up a child's love of learning. Or help a victim find hope inside the arms of a safety shelter.

Introducing a first of it's kind global campaign to benefit women and children everywhere. From May 1 to Dec. 31, 2008, Mary Kay will donate 100 percent of it's profits from the sale of Mary Kay Creme Lipstick in Apple Berry to charitable organizations that support women and children. With Apple Berry's universal appeal, it's symbolic of the unity and strength it requires to truly make a difference.

As a bonus, anyone that purchases the Apple Berry Lipstick from my website will receive a special little gift with their purchase!

Back In Action....

I am back. At least in the sense that I am back in New Jersey!

Max, Magoo, and I had a great trip in Michigan, but I have to say I am glad to be back at home. All three of us are completely out of sync and are in desperate need of our routines - especially poor little Max. He did exceptional on the ride to Michigan and back to New Jersey so I can't complain!

I have a ton of pictures that I will do my best to get up as soon as possible so please be patient!! Well I have about 30 loads of laundry that I have to get started on....Ciao!

Ellen with her Hawaii Chair

OMG. This was absolutely hilarious!!!! Val had this posted on her blog and I just couldn't help but not put it on mine!

The Countdown Is On....

I am sooooo excited! I am going home for a visit next week. Tuesday to be exact and I am just about to burst!



My mom and sister are flying out Monday and Tuesday we are loading up the van...including Max & Magoo. Yes I am crazy, but Karl is going to be so busy at work I just couldn't leave her shut up in the pen all day. Could you say no to that face!

Anyway. I am hoping to see all of my "peeps" while I am home and of course all of my family! Tuesday couldn't not come soon enough!!!
