Weekend Update

Following Max's swim success on Friday night we got up early on Saturday to head to the Zoo for their winter in July event. Now, I had very little expectations for this event because I am very aware that you cannot have snow here when it's 100 degrees outside. Plus, it seemed like an event with a cluster of people there...Max hates big crowds. Therefore he was not impressed with the piles of snow (aka ice) that children were climbing on and attempting to play in. He was so not interested in the chaos that I didn't even bother taking a photo. I knew this would be his reaction, so I didn't push this.

I did read though that there would be a fire truck for kids to see and play on. I told Max about this before we even left the house, so this kid had a one track mind to see the fire truck. After the epic fail of the piles of ice playing we headed over to the elephant so Max could see the fire truck. This was perfect! There was very little people there and Max could climb in and explore the fire truck. He was one very happy little boy.

On Saturday afternoon Max's friends, Briggs and Stella, came over for swimming and dinner. The kids had so much fun playing in the pool and going down the water slide. I had a lot of fun just watching them and therefore no pictures. Following dinner the kids got crazy together in the living room. I managed to snap a couple of pictures.

Besides that we HAD to get play-doh time in. Max now loves play-doh. He likes how he can make cupcakes, waffles, eggs and basically any kind of food. I love play-doh too because it gives Max a good solid hour of quiet time.
