Today

Beth was explaining that Cinqo De Mayo is the day that marks the mexican army defeat of the french invaders to Max. He got all excited that the mexican army defeated the french darth vader.

Max was spelling his name to me and announced that he has ball in his name and that was totally awesome (Hollenbaugh).

Mia can almost count to 5, which I find amazing. Sometimes she gets a little confused, but other times she gets almost the whole way all by herself. I'm amazed at her vocabulary too. She's so different from the boys. It's like she's on a personal mission just to make them look slow.

Wilson took a whole bunch of steps all by himself this evening. He had an adoring crowd of me, Beth, Max and Mia cheering him on. Max thought it was really cool and Mia just wanted to hug him. Everyone clapped for him. He thought he was pretty hot stuff and grinned and clapped too!
