Fun Pics

Not too much going on... just some fun pictures. Here are Silly Faces (I love Zoey in this one):


And then Max has a great one in this picture (of course, the cute one of each kid is in a different picture):


And here is the ultimate piggy back ride!!


Zoey has a "Responsibility Chart" And if she gets a certain number of smileys each week, she gets to pick a ticket for various things. This week she earned a "night out with Daddy!" Here they are before going out on their date of dinner and ice cream at "Berskin Robbins" (that is how Zoey said it at first. I just had to record it for my own memory!)
They had a good time. She looks forward to her end of the week reward:) Another sweet story of Zoey...
She went to a birthday party this weekend at an Adventure Plex where they had a huge indoor maze (think McDonald's playland, but way, way bigger and cooler and not as snotty and gross) Anyway, this type of thing is her thing. She loves to climb and slide and explore. So she ran right into the huge contraption without a second thought. If any of the other girls in her class were a little timid, she looked out for them. And then Max came at the end (he knew Zoey was going to a party and kept bugging Ross about cupcakes). This place was a little big for a three year old. Even one as big as Max. He was a little afraid at first because it was so big and tall and big kids were zooming by. We asked Zoey to help him and watch out for him. She was so, so sweet. It was definitely a proud moment for me and Ross. She led him through the whole thing, held his hand down the slide if he wanted, and if she got too far ahead, she was aware of it, and went back to get him to make sure he was fine. Even as her friends zoomed by, she didn't rush to join them. She stayed by him the whole time. He was so excited when he got there that he didn't eat his cake, and it got thrown out while he was playing! So he didn't give up on the quest for cupcakes. We had to make some at home. Yum!
