I was so proud of my little Max today. I was getting home from my mom's house and was following the same routine when coming home by myself. I got Max out of the car and told him to go inside as I went around the car and got Isaac. I then went to go inside and there was Max. He had opened the door and was holding it open for me. What a cute kid! I guess I will keep him. Lately I wasn't so sure. He just really knows how to get on my nerves. He is back in a throwing mood and thinks he has to throw everything at me. He throws something at me and then says "Good catch".
He also has an obsession with iphones. I got really tired of him changing all my settings so I broke down and bought him a leapster. It was the best thing I ever did. He plays with it all the time and rarely asks for my phone. He still takes the laptop, puts it on his lap and say "Max itunes". What two year old know what itunes is? Honestly! Ben is starting to get a little worried about him because he loves wearing my shoes and carrying my purse around. 9 times out of 10 when you ask him what his favorite color is he says pink. He is so funny.
Isaac is growing and growing. He still spits up all the time and now cries about 85% of the time. We are doing better. I am just really glad that he is sleeping through the night. When he is not crying he does have a really cute laugh. When he smiles he crinkles his nose. It is really cute. He loves holding his hands and eating his fingers. We recently tried putting him in his walker and he really liked it.We had a really good Christmas. Max did not like Santa at all. On Christmas morning I said, "Look at all the presents Santa brought us." Max went straight over to a 3 foot Santa we had by our fireplace, pushed it over and said "No Santa". He REALLY doesn't like Santa.
We have some really good news. We decided that we are not going to sell our house. We just thought we would see what happened, but we weren't really getting a lot of showings. We also didn't really like a lot of the houses out there. I am excited we are staying because I really like our ward and our neighborhood. School is finally over for Ben. He did really well. He now started a new job at the McKay Behavior Health Pediactrics department. He now has three jobs. He didn't like peds at first, but he is starting to get the hang of it. We don't see him very much, but when he is home he loves playing with his boys.
My card business is starting to pick up. I am just selling the cards on eBay. I just got an order for a girl's 16th birthday. Her birthday party will be on MTV's Sweet 16. I've never seen the show, but that is really cool! I am hoping that it will really help my business pick up. Tutoring is also going well. I just finished my new website if you want to check it out. It is http://www.eldertutoringworks.com/. I am totally full right now, which is great! I already have people signing up for summer tutoring as well. I never thought that I would be very adventurous and start my own businesses, but Ben has been really supportive. He has really given me courage to go out and do it. I am really grateful for all he does for our family. He works so much so I can stay home. I know that he would do anything for us. He is such a sweetheart. We couldn't love him more!
