Bronx Zoo (April 2011)

We went to the Bronz Zoo on a bus trip in April. I forgot my camera so I don't have many pictures but here's what I have. Max really enjoyed the trip, the bus and the zoo.

Greek Fest May 2011

We like to go to Greek Fest at St. Sophia’s each spring. This year Max had fun with his cousin Michael….

Easter 2011

Max decorated his first Easter eggs this year. I think he had fun. We went to church and after he took part in an egg hunt and got to pet a lamb. He was very cautious about the it though.

 Buzz was the star of the basket this year. The Easter Bunny did good.

 Max also really liked the phone and other toys in the basket as well as the shark towel.

Max loved to decorate the eggs this year.

Here are the final products.

This as close as Max would get to the lamb.

Random Cuteness (March 2011)

Backgammon anyone? ….but we can only play on one side of the board.

DeeJay Max in da house!

So glad the weather warmed up so we can get outside and play!

Take me out to the ball game! At cousin Vincent’s baseball game.

Potty Time (February 2011)

Max will probably not like this post when he gets older but a mom’s gotta do what a mom’s gotta do!! Max started using the potty in February, not consistently but it's a start.

Sesame Street Live (February 2011)

We went to see Sesame Street Live because Max loves Elmo!! It was a great show and he loved it!

Chuck E. Cheese (January 2011)

We took Max to Chuck E. Cheese for the first time and he loved it. I like that they have rides and games for little kids.

Catch Up!!

So I’m obviously very behind in blogging but I really want to keep it up so that our family and friends that live faraway can see Max as he grows and see his experiences. I also like to use this blog as part of Max’s keep sake for memories. So first I’m going to catch up and then I will hopefully find the time to keep up….remember I have a two year old!! So here goes…..catching up since January 2011.

SoccerTots (Winter 2011)

Max started Soccertots at Afrim’s soccer complex (why didn’t I think of starting this? They are always so busy that I’m sure they’re making a lot of money) in January (on his birthday to be exact) and he loves it. It’s not so much about soccer as it is about getting them used to the environment and having a coach.. They mostly run around a play with such things as hulahoops, noodles, balloons, cones, parachute etc. and the parents participate. He did learn his “soccer stance” (standing with one foot resting on the ball) and they learn to kick the ball down the field and into the goal.
