Max David

I haven't written a post about Max in quite awhile so it's definitely time for an update! As I go through the pictures on my camera and my phone I realize I don't have too many of him. With him gone every day I take most of my pictures of the girls! How sad...it's going to be hard having two kiddos gone all day next year.

Kindergarten is coming to an end...he loves it, but is really ready to be done. Since they got to the 100th day of school, they have been counting backwards to the end. It's down to 12 now. He is doing really well...is quite the little participator, loves reading and math, favorite times of the day are centers, specials (art, music and PE) and recess! He loves his reading group (could be because it's with 5 other girls and him) and the other day he came home and told me that Emma (a girl in his group) asked Ms. O'hare why they had to read all of the hard books. Ms. O'hare said it was because they were so smart. Max thought it was pretty funny to tell me that.

For awhile he was taking his lunch from home about 50% of the time. Then, a couple of weeks ago when the weather finally started being decent, he was taking lunch at school every day. After an entire school year of packing lunch on the "pancake on a stick" day, he chose to take it at school. I asked him why and he responded that if you eat lunch at school you sit in a different table and that table is dismissed for recess first:) He's a smart boy! We looked ahead at next week's lunch and he's back to taking it from home. I think a couple weeks of not eating much for lunch has changed his mind about the 1 extra minute of recess!

He is on his 3rd pair of tennis shoes and backpack for the year. He grew out of one pair and ruined the other one. Both zippers on the backpacks have broken. I think I'll spend more than $10 on next year's backpack! Max loves to go out to the bus stop really early and set his backpack down to save his spot in line. He runs home after he gets off the bus in the afternoon and can't wait to get his drink of orange juice and tell me about his day. His top teeth are gone right now which brings his total to 6 teeth lost. His other two top teeth are currently loose so I'm guessing they'll be out soon.



Here's Max and his friend Mylee after their performance of "The Cow who Clucked" at the Bell Tower Theater. He had a great time with this theater class this spring.


Love this little guy...can't wait to have him home all summer!
