So we decided to give Max his new big green truck as an early birthday present. We figured the weather is nice and what is the point of giving him a new truck to drive in the winter. We showed his a calendar and explained that this present was early. he kept saying..EARLY… EARLY  big geen (green)  car!!! SEvery day I would pick him up from school and he would ask me this and everyday he would tell me to call DAD and ask him about his new big green car. Max was constantly looking in the catalogs that got delivered to the house and almost had a heart attack when he saw the big green truck in the Toys R Us catalog. I know we are total consumers. So we gave it to him and he was so damn excited and I think Sam was excited as well because she can now join in on the fun.

We asked each of the family members to chip in on Max’s  birthday gift. This year we are trying to keep it all pretty low key, considering it is his birthday and Chanukah all rolled into one month. Generally I take half or more of  the gifts and out them away anyway for a rainy day or a time when he deserves a gift.

So check out Max and Sam having a blast together!!

There were so many pictures and videos documenting each moment and it made me think of what they are going to be like when  they are older. Sam was hanging her arm out of the car and Max was trying to adjust the radio and then sam would try and he would push her away and she would try again..and again..I swear I was watching them at 16 and 14..the day Max gets his license. It cracked me up and made me realize that we will be there before I know it. I just adore these kids and they are so funny together-just like an old married couple.
