Cute photo of Father and son

I have been so slack about the blog, seems the older Max gets the less and less we post. I do have some photos to post of our growing boy as he gets bigger and bigger. His vocabulary seems to have exploded. My current favorite is when he says, thru laughing, "your funny daddy/mommy" it melts my heart.

Max is going to have a slumber party with Grama & Grampa Olsen this Friday and coming home Sat. All the mothers out there can understand how excited Ben and I are about that. Funny a year ago I would have been sad. I don't think I can fit in all the thing I want to do while he is gone but I'm going to try!

I've been working on a portrait of my niece Reece in her fluffy birthday dress I'd like to show everyone. I'm not sure if it's finished yet. I paint here and there when I can between daily duties. Nice thing about oils is they don't dry up so I can do 10 min. here and there. I really like painting and would love to take a class because I really don't have any idea what I'm doing. Ron (Ben's dad) has taken some really beautiful portraits I would like to paint. You can check them out at his flicker page.

More interesting stuff soon I promise!

Love you all so much! Give yourself a Big hug for me!
