Friends and Visitors



We've been lucky to have two special visitors with us these past few days. Jenny was here on Friday and Saturday and she worked her butt off helping me fix up the yard. Scott, conveniently, missed out on this project because he was in Las Vegas for an annual live fantasty football draft with his buddies. Yes, you heard me right. Scott did, indeed, fly across the country for the weekend to play pretend football with his friends. Oh the crazy hobbies men have!

Grandma Rhona arrived on Saturday night and she will be staying with us all this week. She has been a great help already watching the boys so that I can get things done. She and Max have built MANY a tower out of blocks and legos. She also managed to teach Max how to spell his name -- "M-A-X". Pretty cool!

Today Max got a much-needed haircut (compare first and last photos above). He actually didn't cry this time which is a first, and he was quite excited to receive a grape lollypop upon the succesful completion of the event. What a big boy he is becoming!

What a slick haircut, Max. And Henry, you have the biggest blue eyes and biggest bald head Auntie has ever seen!

Is that post-bath Max at the bottom? The combed-down hair is a pretty cute look for him. :)

Just to let everyone know I had the best week with Max and Henry and then went to Boston to spend time with Benjy. What more can a grandma ask for. The three cutest, smartest, happiest grandsons in creation.
