At the beginning of February we had a surprise snow day! It came down in huge flakes and made for a fun day (most of it was fully melted within 24 hours!).
Max's pal Saskia turned seven in February and had a birthday party at a circus school. The kids had fun learning acrobatic tricks!
Do you think Saskia was happy about her cake? Haha!
The snow was unexpected and Max went to hang out with Denise while Ben was on run with the guys and I was getting my hair cut. With the snowy roads, Ben and Max ended up stuck at the Krueger's house for several hours. In addition to playing in the snow, Max was living his best life snuggled up in Walter and Denise's bed watching a science program on Netflix. I think he enjoyed the novelty of this experience almost as much as the snow!
The Krueger's blew up a pool float that Max used as a makeshift sled!
Once Ben and Max made it back home, Max and I had fun playing in the snow. Unfortunately Max's jacket and sneakers were still wet from when he played in the snow at the Krueger's house, so he didn't last very long. I ended up playing alone and building snowmen, etc. for almost another hour. Haha! We all warmed up with hot chocolate, popcorn, and a movie later on.
Max got a lizard at Dollar Tree and we put it in the tub for about a week and it grew to 1' 9"!
We redeemed the passes to Tiny Towne that Santa gave Max for Christmas!
Max went to a birthday party for his friend Rayden from Cub Scouts. Ben caught this funny photo of Max enjoying his pizza in a party hat!
Snuggled up in bed reading!
Max's teachers occasionally send us photos via an app that we use for check in/out, communication with teachers, etc. This is a photo of Max giving his first research presentation! He worked really hard putting it together, and practiced the presentation over and over. Max even worked up to being able to share some of the content without reading the poster. He did a great job!
