The Joy of Art!

Maxwell has really become quite the artist lately. We have wondered why our printer is slowly losing paper and then we found his stash of fabulous artwork. We would like to expose all of you to his masterpieces since we have greatly appreciated them on our fridge for many months now. This piece is especially important as it is his first rendition of what people look like. Until now he has done a lot of lines and racetracks and he loves to write his letters. In this piece he has drawn a picture of his four favorite people. Going clockwise from the person on the top left corner--His cousin Jake who lives in Texas, Dad, Mom and of course himself. You will also notice some of his favorite words to write, actually they are the only words he knows how to write-- Mom, Dad, and Max. He is taking requests from his family and friends if there is anything you would like handpainted in the Maxwell style of art.

Also thanks to all of those who have voted for the our little baby girls name. We were surprised to see Mallory take the lead after Avery was ahead for the first few votes. I am actually going to change the amount of days left. I would like to have a name chosen by the fourth of July so that at our Mangum family reunion in Boston we won't call the baby her, it and she. I would like to refer to her by her name. With Maxwell we didn't have the name until the hospital and it always made it awkward when we would talk about him pre-birth. So keep up the voting, you have a few weeks left.

We wanted to give a shout out to all of the father's that we know. We hope you have a very Happy Father's Day. Especially to our fathers Doug and Don. We wish we could be with you on this very special holiday. I also want to thank Matt and wish him a very happy fathers day. Our litte guy loves his dad so much and is sad when he is away at work or school or church. He really enjoys the time they get to spend together. Especially when they play sports, even though Max doesn't really play the sport right, Matt tries hard to play by Maxwells rules. They are Best Buds! We love you Matt!
