WHAT A BIRTHDAY!

Hey People,

Just wanted to let everyone know I had the best 2nd Birthday EVER!  First, a few days before the big day I got to go in my swimming pool for the very first time.  It turns out that the bath chair that Grandma Shay gave me works great to keep me sitting tall and enjoyin the water.  It was a blast!  And a great way to be able to be outside with all this crazy hot weather we have been having.

                                

Then, my Grandma and Grandpa Servais came to my house on my birthday.  My Aunt Kristi was there too.  I got to make a HUGE mess out of my birthday cake while everyone stood around and watched me.... boy did they miss out.   I even got a little bit in my mouth and I think I liked it. I know my dog had fun too because every little piece I threw on the ground he was there to scarf it up.   I got this really cool jumper thing as a gift that everyone pitched in for (even my uncle and aunt from Milwaukee) - I LOVE IT.  And my mom loves it because it is helping me learn to use my legs a little. 

And, to top it off......  after I went to sleep I guess my mom and dad decided they had to drive into La Crosse to get me a new baby sister - I think I heard them leave at 2am.  My grandparents took me in to see them on Friday.  I over heard them talking about this new sister of mine.  I guess Maggie Joanna Shay was born July 20th at 11:44am and weighed 8lbs 3oz.  I am still getting used to sharing my parents attention with her.  But she seems alright so far.  I think my parents are going to throw a little party sometime here to celebrate my 2nd birthday and my new sister.  I'll make sure they keep you all informed. 

Just Keep Waiting

Well, no new brother or sister yet. My mom's due date is this Sunday. Her doctor told her today if no baby by this time next week they are going to induce her. Guess there is still a chance that we could share a birthday. We'll see. Sooo..... I decided I am just gonna kick back and relax outside while I can. 

Not Always Smiles

As some of you may have heard - my mom finally caved in and joined the "cool phone" world.  She turned off the ol' flip phone that couldn't take or receive pictures and turned on a phone with apps, email, picture taking and receiving capabilities, and internet (I suppose she can use it for calling and texting too). Anywho, I happen to over hear my mom the day after she switched phones..... and I believe she was saying the darn thing wouldn't work, but she was using words I didn't recognize.  Now, with my new lil brother or sister coming any day now, I know she needs a phone to call my dad or whoever when the time comes.  Again, not sure why, cause my mom doesn't usually need to call anyone when people come over.  But, it must have been a big deal, because my dad came home for lunch that day - which he never does.  So I was a pretty happy camper to get to hang out with dad while he ate quick and left his personal phone for my mom to use until hers started working again.  I didn't realize his visit was going to be soo short, so when he had to leave this happy camper decided he wasn't gonna smile anymore (and of course my mom caught it on camera).  Thanks mom.
