MUMMY TO THE MAX

This week Maxwell had his last day of preschool. Maxwell has made a great start to his first term and he is looking forward to going back in September. In September Maxwell will be attending preschool 2 mornings a week instead of just the one. Maxwell seems to be more confident since attending and I think his speech has slightly improved. On the last day of term Maxwell enjoyed meeting a clown which I thought he may be scared of and loved eating lots of cake. Maxwell was very happy due to the clown making him a balloon dog.

In August Maxwell and I are going to carry out 31 days of fun. Essentially it is a small bucket list of things that we wanted to do together. We have come up with some exciting ideas and we are really looking forward to sharing them with everyone. Our 31 days of fun has cost us pence to do so we are hoping to show our readers you can have fun on all sorts of budgets.

With the weather being so hot, Maxwell has ended up getting hot and sticky. This has resulted in me giving Maxwell a lot of baths. Maxwell seems to love having baths in this weather and is having up to 2 a day. I am hoping to get the paddling pool out for Maxwell over the weekend so he can enjoy the pool through out the day and then enjoy a bath at night. Maxwell is also enjoying lots of ice lollies and is eating his way through a load of boxes which I won earlier on this month. We have 8 boxes left so I am hoping they will last us all summer.

As many of my readers know, we have tried to start Maxwell off with using a potty however Maxwell is more interested in the toilet. Maxwell likes to slide up and down the room on his potty and then pee on the floor however if we take him to the toilet he shows much more of a interest. We are hoping to buy him a toilet step this week and we are looking forward to seeing how he gets on.

Yesterday A.Rachel visited us as she is going away for a few days, much to Maxwell's horror. A.Rachel was in a rush so she could not stay long which Maxwell fussed over. As soon as it was time for her to leave Maxwell decided he would ignore her and slam the door in her face as she left. Maxwell then decided he would slam the window on her as she decided that she would try and talk to him through it. Luckily Maxwell said goodbye in the end however it was funny to see him in a little strop about his favorite aunt leaving.
