I am amazed. Just a few months ago I was wondering if Max would ever talk... wow, give him time. Just a minute ago he walks up to me out of nowhere and says, "nana peash", he wanted to eat a banana! His all time favorite food! I am amazed at how his vocabulary is expanding and that he is starting to put words together. Some of the words he uses the most are:
shoe (he loves to wear shoes)
bye-bye
cow
read (we read about 20 books a day!)
please
And honestly he probably has about 50 more. Now we just need to get him talking more in front of people! He is such a people person but he can still be a little shy at first! We go to Story Time at the library once a week and I never hear a word from him the whole time because there are so many people around. But, he will get there!
I am just so amazed at how much he is learning and growing. He is such a cool little guy!

Time really seems to fly by lately! I am about 1/2 way through this pregnancy which is super exciting and crazy at the same time. I can't believe in just a few months our little girl will be here!
Right now we are in the middle of arranging the kids rooms. Max is moving into his new "toddler room" which is a sports theme and then we are going to put the new baby in the nursery. We are keeping the Classic Pooh theme that we love so much and adding a few pink touches! We painted Max's new room this weekend and I really like it. We will post pictures of both rooms when we get finished!
We had a really fun night tonight. My old college roomie, Meghan and her boyfriend Danny came and had dinner with us which was so much fun! I love Meghan and she and Danny are such a fun couple! I wish she didn't live in Oklahoma! Max loved showing off for them! He loves having people over.
Anyway, I better finish getting the kitchen cleaned up and then head to bed! Have a good night!

It is a girl... we think! Nick and I went to our first ultrasound this morning and they said they are pretty sure we are having a girl! It was kind of a weird angle so they said they couldn't say for certain. So, for now we are thinking pink and keeping the receipts! We are super excited! We were really thinking it was going to be another boy but we really couldn't be happier. And, as our tradition goes Nick took the day off of work and I got to buy a few girlie things as my reward for having so much self-control and not buying any baby stuff until we found out for sure what the gender was! Here are a few things we bought! My absolute favorite... leopard print shoes!! I have a pair just like them!

I took Max to get his picture taken with a bunny for Easter. He had so much fun and thought the bunnies were great! He was so sweet and gentle with them. I was so proud!
