Birthday Bash Coming Up
As one of my favorite Dr. Seuss books go...
"today you are you! that is truer than true! there is no one alive who is you-er than you"
 |
| In our "birthday suits" to tell you about our birthday par-tay! |
Those of you who know me, know that I love me some Dr. Seuss, but I though the timing was right for the words above, they come from Happy Birthday to You. That's right people, my birthday is coming up... which means Maggie's birthday is coming up too. Now, there is something else big happening with my family (besides the fact that Maggie is walking), we are moving to La Crescent - and the move happens to take place on our birthday weekend. Because of this, my folks have been forced to bump up the festivities.
Soooo, come one/come all... catch a flight, drive, bike or run and help us celebrate turning 3 and 1.
Me and Maggie are gonna throw a co-bday party on Saturday, July 6th 12-3 at our house in Caledonia. It will not only be our birthday parties but it will be the last party that we throw here. There will be food, it will be fun, and there will be a lotta Dr. Seuss stuff around. Come watch us demolish some cake! Please let my mom know - either email: ljserva@hotmail.com ; facebook message ; comment on here ; or even do it the ol' fashion way and give her a phone call - so she knows roughly how many people are coming so we can prepare. Can't wait to see you!

I want to ride my bicycle
All this cold and rainy weather can kiss my diaper; I want to go outside and play....
I want to ride my bicycle
I want to ride my bike
I want to ride my bicycle
I want to ride it where I like
I want to ride my bike
I want to ride my bicycle
I want to ride it where I like
All it took was 2 hand wraps, pink trunk support, black hip helper shorts, 2 shoes duct tapped to the pedals, and a modified seat belt system - along with a jealous lil sister - and I was able to ride my bike inside for a lil bit today.

Maggie took it one step further....
Hello Sunday,
Now, don't get me wrong, I kinda like going to church. I like the singing and the music and the people (most of the time). But this morning, when my mom said we better get ready for church..... I kinda wanted to stay in my pj's and listen to Dr. Seuss. So, when we were all ready and everyone was in the car, I decided to puke.... all over..... everything in the car (and I also left a lil surprise in my diaper too, just in case the puke wasn't enough). I figured this was enough to get us out of church today. But I was wrong. My folks cleaned me, my car seat, and the car itself up while Maggie downed a bottle and we were off. We were only a few mins late. My plan had failed. However, Maggie decided to take it one step further. We are usually pretty good kids in church, people have even commented on it. Today was no such day. Maggie did not sleep during church. Instead she yelled, she got really loudly excited, she squirmed and jumped, she was exchanged between mom and dad, she cried, she said hi to everyone and everything, she insisted on being on the ground at times, and she even had to be taken out by my mom at one time - not sure where they went but they eventually came back. I think Maggie thought that she was going to get us to leave by misbehaving. Her plan failed too. I was about to finish with "chalk one up for mom and dad" but now that I think about it, no one really one. Yes we did end up going to church and yes we did make it through the service, but I am pretty sure mom and dad are exhausted from the ordeal. We'll call it a tie.
And as long as I am on the topic of Church, our lil couzin Zoey Kaylee Servais got Baptised last weekend. We got to drive down to Milwaukee and hang out with her for the whole weekend. It was a good time. My mom tired to get a good group shot, but Maggie once again had a different plan. She only sat still for this one. But we did get a good one of each of us along with her. I heard the adults talking about my mom being Zoey's Godmom. I guess that is fitting since Zoey's parents are my Godparents. Anywho, congrats Zoey and welcome to the Baptised world.

Conner & Kaylee's Crew Returns
Hey All,
My mom finally got around to registering our team for the Little Miracles 5K and Family Fun Fest in Rochester. I know she isn't very good at asking people to do stuff so I thought I would share the info for her. I know the run/walk is on Aug 3rd - the same day as our family's Servais Open..... so maybe you non-golfers would like to just me, Maggie, and mom. Dad is gonna golf (have to represent the fam). Anywho, it should be really fun this year. Last year was awesome. Our team "Conner & Kaylee's Crew" came in second place for fundraising - we lost to a bunch of richy doctors who started a team. But that part doesn't matter, because all the money (100%) goes to helping families that went through what we did a few years ago. So if you wanna joing our team you have to register under the team registration and look for our team name "Conner & Kaylee's Crew", if you would rather just donate to the team you can go to the website below. We are looking forward to it, and Maggie may even be able to walk a little with the grown ups. We have been working on taking steps - yep again I am working my big bro magic and teaching Maggie something I haven't master yet myself. Just a couple weeks ago and Grandma and Grandpa Servais', Maggie took 4 steps.... by Aug she will be runnin all over the place. Anywho, here's the links, do what you will with them. And thanks for considering.

Keeping it Short But Sweet
Since my mom has been soo busy, she hasn't had time to log me onto the computer. Now that I got the chance, there has been so much that has happend that I am gonna keep this short but sweet (bullet style)
- I have been handeling my eye patch for 2 hrs a day like a champ
- I went to my first dentis appointment last week and it didn't go that bad
- I am lovin the water so much my folks started putting me in every night so I can get some exercise, and Maggie has been helpin me splash!
- I have my CP clinic in Rochester next week (stay tuned for info on that)
- My awesome PT student babysitters are done for the year, now Grandma is steppin up to the plate. It will be fun. My mom says "Grandma doesn't spoil us, she is just very very accomidating!"
- My mom said I should let people know how Maggie is doing too.... soo she recently got her top 4 teeth (boy was she a crab during that); she just crawled up the stairs the other day by herself (I am a lil jealous about that); she likes to stand and balance and dance at the same time (she cracks me up) but has not taken any steps yet; and last but not least.... she says "HI" all the time now (she's a bit of a show off, especially in front of my speech therapist).
And, we went and got some fam pics taken... they turned out awesome. Thought I would share a few on here. We will definately be going back to this lady, she did a nice job :) Enjoy!

In The News
Couple things to update you peeps on....
2. My mom (and us kids) survived driving up to the cities and back for my eye appointment yesterday all by ourselved! It was a long day in the car - just short of 3 hours up and 3 hours back and only one wrong turn. We had to sit around Children's Eye Clinic in the cities for a couple hours while they looked at my eyes. Good new, the doc still says she would hold off on surgery. In fact, she thinks I may not need surgery at all. She says my numbers are looking better - this is good new - and that now she is having my mom patch one of my eyes for 2 hours a day to see if it helps strengthen my other eye. I still have to wear my glasses and we have to go back in 3 more months. Maggie actually slept a majority of the car travel time - she only was "a bugger" as my mom puts it, the last 15 mins of the drive home. I'll take that I guess. I even got in a little nap, and I hardly ever nap in the car.
3. Just wanted to share another pic :)
1. The magazine "Coulee Parenting Connection" did an article on my mom's group Our Miracle Babies. It's out this month. It may even have a family pic of us to go along with the write up. If anyone is interested in looking at it, you can find it at:
