Another July Day

It has been around 45 degrees today and raining.


I would have not even have gotten out today, but Max had to go to the doctor. He has excessive ear drainage and bronchitis. His nose is running constantly and he sits around with his finger(s) shoved up there.

Ice Cream

We went to TCBY last night for a little ice cream. Max really enjoyed his Rainbow Cream.


Apparently so did Sheldon.


Today Max and I are off to the doctor. He is draining fluid from his ear and is constantly coughing.

Goodbye...

We met early for breakfast before Sheldon went to work.



After we ate, Sheldon left for work and we went to Wal-Mart for a few things. I had a doctors appointment and my mom went with me. Max and his bff stayed at our house and played. When we got home, it was time to say our goodbyes.
We had a great time and it was sad to see them go. My parents will be back in October and we are planning on going to Tennessee in December.

Sunday

We met my mom and aunt at their hotel for breakfast and then went to church. After church, we drove up the mountain.

Finally...

Saturday morning we woke up early, went to eat breakfast, and drove to the airport to pick up Sheldon.




We ate a quick lunch and then went to the mall.






After the mall, we hung out a while and then went to eat dinner.

On Our Way

We started our trip back to Wyoming last Thursday. We drove to Nashville and spent the night. After a long night of no sleep, we all got ready and left our hotel at 4:30 am. Our flight left Nashville at 7 am. Max did better on this flight than he ever has before. He took an hour nap and woke up confused, cried for about 5 minutes, and then played for the rest of the flight. We flew into Denver and picked up a rental car. Then, we went to Chick-fil-a to eat lunch. Max has become an expert on eating ketchup and drinking Sprite.



We got back in the car and headed to Wyoming. Max and his bff quickly fell asleep.




After about 5 hours, we arrived at our house. Max was really excited and did not know what to do first. He ran around getting up on the couch and playing with his toys.

We Are Home

We are all back in Wyoming and getting back into the groove of things. I have a lot to blog about, but here is a picture of Max. We were outside last night watching Sheldon mow the grass. Max had his mower out there and decided to take a little break. He sat down on the grass and his nose started bothering him.

Heading Home

Sheldon, Max, and I are all getting ready to head back to Wyoming. Sheldon leaves this afternoon and will finally make it home on Saturday. Max and I get back tomorrow evening. My mom and aunt are also coming to visit with Sheldon a few days before heading back.

This week, Max and I have been visiting our church friends, packing, and playing around.





The last time we flew, we took Max's car seat and he did 100 times better on the plane. The only downside was having to carry it all over the airport. We found this cart and Max really likes it. I am afraid after all of the riding he has done on it he will pitch one when we strap his carseat to it. We shall see.

One Year Ago

One year ago all my prayers were answered and it was the happiest day of my lfe.

Church Singing

Last night, we went to church. When Max was not running around with the other kids, he was singing songs with us out of his hymnal.

Monkeying Around

Max is all boy. He loves playing outside, running, and climbing all over everything.

Cheese

We have been working on smiling pretty for the camera. Obviously, Max needs more practice.

Happy Birthday Granny Kaye!!!

We had a little party today for Auntie Kaye's birthday. We grilled out and then went swimming. My dad got in with Max to play in the pool. Max had so much fun. He was jumping off the side and dunking his face under.
