Bad Catch-up

So here is the problem with playing catch-up...I don't remember if I have blogged certain things or not.  So, if you have seen these pictures before, sorry.  I just want to capture as much as I can.  In the middle of August, Shane learned that he would be able to go to Germany and I could go with him.  We had about 3 weeks to get everything planned.  The same day, I learned that my co-worker would be quitting and I would need to temporarily go full-time to fill in and to train the new hire.  This all hit at a crazy busy time with Max's baptism, school starting, etc.  It threw our entire family for a loop!  So, my good intentions of blogging more regularly, were thrown out the window because I was just trying to survive.  So, here is a mishmash of a few things and then I will for sure blog about our trip to Germany.

London Swimming Lessons

Max at Swimming Lessons

Playing at the splash pad at the Riverwoods

Shopping fun

Picnic at Sundance

3K Run at the end of the school year, yes this is very late!

Max's buddy, Slade, who stuck out the whole race with Max.

Max with his rooster.  He brought this home from school and it turned out to be a rooster.  The day after this we had to take the rooster to a farm.

Bath time with cousin Addy

If I have posted this, sorry, but this is Max's favorite teacher, Mrs. Madsen.  She is phenomenal and Max grew leaps and bounds in her class.

Playing in the rain!

Andrew helping the kids to make an army of water balloons.  Glad I wasn't on the receiving end of these.

London at the dentist before a filling.  She was so nervous and with the gas she was SO agreeable.  I need to get some of this for at home.

Max's swollen ear after being stung by 2 wasps.

Football Buddies!

Max's first day as a cub scout!  Thanks, Grandma for the picture as I was working full-time that day and didn't get to send him off.  I was so sad, but at least my Mom was on the ball.
