My Crazy Husband

Andrew grew a beard at the end of December. Lots of people liked it, but honestly, I wasn't the biggest fan. I tried really hard not to bug him about it, but he shaved it to surprise me for Valentine's Day. He actually said it had started to bug him. Andrew shaved it in stages throughout the day at school. Here are pictures of the progress. He provided great entertainment for the office staff. He even did bus duty that afternoon looking like he did in the last picture!

February

Here are some random pictures of The Maxeys during February. I already feel less stressed, having given up my Wellpoint job. My Friday's off are actually days off now to get errands done and have a little down time for me. It's good. Katherine's vocabulary continues to expand, and she makes us laugh constantly. Yesterday she said to me, "Thanks, Mama. 'Preciate it!"We've started using the hair dryer on Katherine's hair.

Playing outside on a sunny day.

Big, cheezy grin!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Here's the biggest news from February... Katherine's going to love me when she's older for posting this picture... This week, she has started using the potty at night before her bath. She somehow knew what to do the very first time, and is doing great! The big issue is getting her off the potty - she wants to stay on it. They don't start taking the kids to the bathroom during the day at school until August, so we're not going to push potty training. But if she wants to use it at home, we'll definitely let her!

A Sunny Day

We finally had a sunny day in the 70s, so Katherine could play outside. Keep watching until the end. She can say her name pretty clearly now. Just this week, it's evolved from "Kassie" to "Katherine."
