Max and Wyatt had a great time during their summer visit to Missouri. Their Papa, who had open-heart surgery just two months prior, was doing amazingly well. Enough to go for walks with Max, take him for another haircut at Donnie's, and give tractor rides. What more could a two and a half year old want?? Oh, that would be blowing bubbles and making cupcakes with Mama. (Max's new thing is saying "two and half" to every question, even if it isn't about his age. He's quite the jokester.) And of course, lil' Wyatt got in on the fun too, partaking in bubble-blowing and tractor rides (much to Max's chargin - when he saw Wyatt in the tractor once, he proclaimed, "No, MY tractor!").
