Story Time

Last night Brian and I were able to sneak out for a 'date'. Nonna and Nonno came over the spend the evening with little bit. Within minutes of walking in the door Max was handing Nonna a book and climbing up in her lap for some story time. It was too cute.

Max will go to the doctor in a few weeks for his 18 month check up. We are a bit concerned about his speech and language development. He still doesn't use any real words consistently. I spoke to the parents as teachers director at school the other day and she had some great suggestions. I think I will be contacting First Steps in a couple weeks to see if I can get him evaluated. Maybe we are over-reacting, maybe it is just the teacher in me, but we want to make sure that if he needs help we get it for him as soon as possible.

Another First

Max has his first official skinned knee. We were playing in the front yard waiting for Brian to get home, and Max took a spill. I felt like it happened in slow motion. Based on his reaction, I was convinced he was going to be bloody from knee to ankle. Luckily that wasn't the case. It was just a bit of a scrape. He was fully recovered with just a little love, and of course a cold cup of milk.

I think it is obvious by my lack of posts, but I am officially back to work. We started last week and it feels like we never even left. . . I sure am glad that I love my job. If I didn't, I don't think I could leave my little man each day!
