Wow, I cannot believe it has been six years since our little boy came into our lives. On this day, six years ago, the weather was very similar. We hit the snow covered roads around 7:30am after my water broke to make the short trek to the hospital, which on a normal day would take about 5 minutes. Since I was having contractions and a bit uncomfortable the drive seemed to take forever (maybe an extra 5 or 10 minutes) which feels like eternity when in labor. Maxwell Steven entered the world at 2:29pm, we were the proud parents of a 7lb 7oz little boy. By the time we were released from the hospital 2 days later, the snow had already started to melt and the sun was shining so bright we needed our sun glasses for the drive home.
Today, 2-26-08 school was cancelled so the kids and I loaded up and headed for the YMCA. After my normal morning workout we all went swimming for an hour or so. The kids enjoyed their swim and I got to swim laps with Ava on my back. She thought this was really fun and I enjoyed getting more exercise time in! Max tried his new Heely's out in the gym, we learned he has some practicing to do. Now we are home and he is playing his new Super Mario Brothers game on his Nintendo DS. Later we will celebrate with cake and candles. Poor Ava has been asking all day when her birthday is.....Thank goodness Grammy brought her some new lip gloss and finger nail polish.
