keeping busy and having fun...therapy, photo shoot and shopping!

Last night Mommy went to bed with a horrible headache, and unfortunately it was even worse this morning. (She never gets headaches, so she has complete empathy now for her friends who regularly suffer from migraines!)

So she thought the best way to deal with it was for us to keep busy and have lots of fun! Good idea! :)

We played in the bathtub this morning (super cute photos in separate post), and then we had a Valentine's Day photo shoot at Picture People. They know us by name there...perhaps because we go for every single holiday Mommy? She insisted it is because I am so adorable. :) One of the ladies even gave us a few extra photo sheets because she said they were too cute to not have copies! How nice was that?

We then had my physical therapy appointment, and this is something we were looking forward to all week. I have really improved my strength and reached some new milestones. We wanted to show off to my wonderful PT, Jill...and she was certainly impressed! I climbed over all kinds of things and rolled down a big wedge over and over again. She couldn't believe how much I enjoyed playing tough! Mom told her this is my new favorite thing...the faster and wilder...the better!

After PT, we headed to Treasury of Memories...my mommy's favorite store. (This is Aunt Elizabeth's scrapbooking store...such a fabulous place! Plus my friend Stephanie works there!)

I have gone to TOM before, but today was the first time I actually wanted to play with everything. I climbed up on some racks of paper and drooled...and then of course Mom used this excuse to buy the entire line. As they say, "you drool it, you buy it." :)

I was being very funny the whole time, so of course Mom took a million photos of me being silly! Enjoy!


WOW! Look at all this ribbon!
















I like these ones Mommy! And they smell nice too.

















Oh wait, there's more! I wonder how big of a mess I can make?



















Now back to my favorite activity...YOGA!

Are you almost done here Mommy?

Souds like a great day (except for the headache) I use to be the assistant manager at the picture people here. They also donated to Eva's fundraiser so they are always going to have me as a customer. I do go to a lot of other places too just for different types if photos.
I also love your pictures Max as always you are super cute!!

Oh, how cute. It is okay to make a mess when you are having fun - huh????

Hope your headache is better Amy. Take care - both of you.

Love,

Amy--If you still have your headache (or for next time)--I have three words for you: IV Fluids and Reglan. That's what they gave me in the ER last week, and my headache was MUCH better in about 30 minutes (went from a 7-8 out of 10 to about a 3).

Max...you and your antics!

Nothing warms my heart more than seeing Max playing in a scrapbook store! Love it! And, from the pics - looks like a store I'd have fun in for hours.
