    Maximus vs The Pencil

    2014-0923_MaxPencilEar_002

    At 2:30 today I was the fortunate recipient of a phone call from the nurse at Lowell Elementary in Wheaton, telling me that Max got the bad end of a fight with a pencil. He had stuck a pencil into his ear canal and when he pulled it out it was pretty bloody.

    My guess is he was trying to scratch an itch inside his ear since he does have ear wax issues but he never did give me a straight answer.

    I left work and picked him (and Andrew) up an hour after the call and took him to the pediatrician where he confirmed that his ear drum was just fine but he dug a nice gouge into his canal.

    So he’s just fine but maybe we will clean his ears a bit more often now.

    Spring Concerts 2014 – Maximus

    Max has come such a long way in so many different ways.

    During the winter concert of  Kindergarden Max was nervous and scared and started crying during the show. He didn’t really sing at all and looked like he just hated the whole experience. It was heartbreaking to see as his father. I was there to video tape it like I had already done for the other two but what I ended up with was so bad that I just never did anything with it.

    But in contrast this year he looked to be so proud to be up there on the stage, he knew most if not all the songs and he was excited to give us a tour of his classroom when the show was over. It was such a great day for him.

    We are so proud of you Maximus!!

    This Easter we did our very first Egg Hunt at Cantigny Park in Wheaton IL. It was probably the first really good warm weekend this year and nobody appreciates warm weather like people in the midwest.

    An Awesome Sunday With The Mini’s

    Pure joy these kids are. They are just so fascinating and entertaining to watch.

    They are so well brainwashed that they’re excited about peas and cucumbers. Literally, excited! You would think it was a happy meal.
