Wonderful day for the Beach

We had a great day at the beach. Aunty Amy took us to her favorite spot. Max was happy to be hanging out with his buddy, and that he could travel in style with Aunty Amy carrying him on the difficult parts. Lucky boy!



Max LOVES to throw rocks! He spent the majority of his time tossing the rocks into the surf. He's a little afraid of the waves and runs away from them, but the beach is true bliss for him. You can tell he's Tommy's boy!



Thank you Amy for coming and visiting us today; it was really wonderful. I love this picure, just think it's so sweet and tender. I figure Amy will have Max trained for find sea glass before we know it.

Max and Jax ... farewell Idaho!

Before we left Idaho, we were lucky enough to have Jackie of Jax Creations come to our house for another shoot with Max. Jackie has done all his photos since he was born ... now little mister is 3!! Even though Jackie is very pregnant and supposed to be being very mellow, she was generous enough to visit us. Everyone knows what a fan I am of her work. If you're in the Sandpoint area, she is, undoubtedly the BEST!

Thank you for being so wonderful to our family Jackie! So glad we have FB to keep us close. God bless you and the new bundle of joy you're carrying.



Max LOVES his slide and playhouse Grandpa got for him. He would want to have lunch in his house all the time. You can just see pure joy on his face.


My sweet Max! Couldn't you just eat him up?

This series really shows the bliss that Max has with his playhouse.

July 4th, 2011

Independence Day already?? Where is 2011 going? I guess with all the changes going on in the Rowell family, it's expected for time to be going quickly.

We had to move into a hotel for the long weekend; our temp housing was booked. So we spent a lot of time packing and unpacking. Sure do carry a lot of stuff when you have a 3 year old.

The hotel had a pool, which made Max so very happy. He was like a fish, didn't want to get out of the water. I reminded Tommy that we have a pool at our new pad at Willow Springs. Max will be in his glory! Thank God we get to move in 2 weeks. We're ready to settle!

Good sign that Max will a better swimmer than Mama.
