Let me start this post by saying WHO KNEW a 15 month old could do a system restore on a laptop and delete EVERYTHING! AHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Okay, so it all started last night. I was working on our desktop computer and Max and daddy were sitting in the floor playing on the laptop. I hear Max crying and I asked Craig what was wrong. Craig said the computer was doing some kind of restore and he wasn't going to let Max touch it....so therefore he was crying. While this was going on neither of us have any idea what it is doing because we had never seen the screen before. I start freaking out because I read in the manual that he has somehow done a system restore which deletes everything off the hard drive and puts it back to the original condition. So I then turn off the computer hoping that when I restarted it it would be back to normal. Well....lets just say it wasn't back to normal... I immediately called my computer wiz brother and had a complete meltdown on the phone. I was so upset because all my pictures and little videos of Max were on the laptop. I do have backups of most of my pictures on shutterfly but no backups of videos. I have just been devastated that I may never get to watch those sweet little videos of the first rolling over, eating cereal for the first time, first crawl, first mama, first dada, etc. Needless to say I was emotional. (You have to know too that on Mondays I have been up since 3-4pm on Sunday...worked 7p-7a Sunday night...get 1-2hr nap with Max....and up till bedtime Monday night...so just imagine how tired I was on top of being emotional....lets just say I was pretty ridiculous last night.) My brother and husband deserve a big award for dealing with me last night!
The good and the bad news! I went to Best Buy first thing this morning and they said they may be able to get all personal data off and put it on an external hard drive before completing the system restore. Lets just pray that this is possible. It cost $100 if they can get the info off and nothing if they can't. I will know in the next 2-3 days. So no picture updates on the blog until I get my laptop back up and running.
And just want to let everyone out there know.....please please please get an external hard drive and backup all your precious memories!!!Oh on a funny note.....(well not that any of this is really that funny...but)...the guy at best buy said that there is a 3 sec window during startup to push F11 to do system restore...he said it was pretty freaking impressive that a 15 month old did that! Like I said in the beginning....who knew...
Got Max's first pair of tennis shoes this week! He really looks like a BIG kid now! We went to have him sized and he is now a size 6 1/2! Can you believe that. I think he was a size 5 like a month ago! I felt like a bad mom because his crocs he has been wearing are 5-6. I had no idea they were too small! Poor little guy! So I bought a size 7 in hopes he has a little growing room! We shall see....
Just chilling!
Just looks like a pouty little boy!
Max wore this shirt last weekend when the TN VOLS put a smackdown on Georgia! The score ended up being 45 to 19! Looks like this might be a LUCKY shirt for our Big Orange!
Just thought these pictures of him in footed pjs were so adorable! 
Big blue eyes! Don't you just want to kiss that sweet face!
This is only the 2nd time we have come to the Zoo. Max went right up and started petting the sheep at the petting farm! I couldn't believe it! He knew exactly what to do!
He wanted to pet the chickens.....some how I don't think that would be as fun as petting the sheep! LOL!
Playing with all the buttons that make animal sounds!
Leaving Once Upon A Farm! So much fun!
Panda time! The sweet pandas were both sleeping when we went to visit them!
Checking out the elephants!
We got to watch the feeding time with the giraffes! It was quite interesting. I never knew how LONG a giraffes tongue was....
One of my favorites! The polar bears!
Love how the polar bear looks like he was trying to get the little girl's water bottle!
We stopped in the polar bear and sea lions exhibit to eat some lunch!
It was nice and cool!
This pic looks like Hannah was telling Max something very interesting!
We left shortly after lunch to get the kiddos home for their naps! They were so sweet in the car with their pacifiers and blankets! Max reached over and grabbed Hannah's hand....SO SWEET!
They actually held hands for like 5 minutes!
Max is really going to miss his Hannah!
We love you Hannah and Charity! Glad we got to go to the Zoo with you both!
Notice these are Daddy's TWO favorite teams being represented Cowboys and Memphis Tigers!
Max got the recliner as a Christmas gift last year from Grandma Helen and Grandpa Mickey. He is really starting to use it now.
Tried taking the pacifier away to get a cute close up and in went the B in his mouth. Can't wait till this teething stuff is past us!
Once again these pictures are from last week. Just going to get you all caught up with everything that went on!
Love the chocolate smile!
Haven't updated in a while because I didn't have access to pics. I am slowly getting everything back in order! These pictures were taken last Monday Oct. 5th! These were actually taken right before Max erased my hard drive! LOL....well we can laugh about it now that I have my pictures and videos back...
Uncle Michael and Max having a good ole time on the swings!
Max loved this slide! He would crawl up and slide down with the help of mommy of course!
Hannah was swinging in the swing and I stuck Max in with her....Hannah was not too happy that Max was squeezed in next to her....but I thought it would be a good pic! LOL!
Max trying to walk up a tunnel slide!
So sweet on the tire swing!
Love Hannah's expressions in this picture! 
We stayed out there for a good hour or more! The weather was so beautiful that we could not resist being outside this past week! We are LOVING the FALL weather!
