I've mentioned that Max loves yellow. The other day when we were getting him dressed for a doctor appointment, I asked him what shirt he wanted to wear, and he told me "ehlllllllllyo!". I told him he didn't have a yellow shirt, so we put on a green shirt...because green has blue AND yellow. ;)
The next day I found this one in his dresser, that I forgot we bought for the warmer weather...he was a happy guy, and told us all afternoon long about his ehllllllllyo shirt!
When we were turning up the soil in our garden, I noticed Olive had dug quite a hole. We pulled it all up and leveled it out. A few days later, we noticed the hole was back...only Olive hadn't been in the back to dig it!
Somebunny's making a nest...
We're trying to keep Olive away...because how sweet will it be to see baby bunnies!?
Olive got her hair cut...
On to Grasshopper Max. He's a kicker. And for the first time, he's injured himself with his kicking. On his padded, protected wheelchair. He cut his heel on a piece on his chair that wasn't covered. It bled all over the place...and we had to wrap it up. I have to remind myself if he was running around being a rambunctious 6 year old, he would have a lot more scrapes and bruises and bumps.
Aaaaaand...time to move him away from the window. I told you he was a kicker! I guess he was trying to make his escape!
I just have to remind him we can escape without trying to knock the window out! Our landlords approved a ramp for us to be able to get in and out of the house with Max in his chair, instead of having to carry him down stairs! I'm so happy, because now I can take him out of the house without Steve's help!
And finally...snoozin' boy. Max took a very rare afternoon nap today. He worked really hard in therapy today, add that to the cool wind blowing through the house, and having a few rough nights of seizures, and I think he was fine with losing the fight for a nap. Not that it's a fight I try to win...but one he has with himself. He slept for almost an hour, then woke up cold from the wind! I fed him while he slept on a slow drip...then I sat down and did NOTHING!
There we are...all caught up! Thanks for coming along!

I can't believe how old he is looking! I'm glad you caught a bit of a break while he napped.
Love that first photo of Max!
He is getting so big...and really trying to hold himself up a lot more. I think he looks like he's sitting up totally unassisted in the first photo.
