What are you looking at? Lol.

Mommy's not paying attention and Michael swooped in for a drink. Lol.Life has been speeding by and super crazy the last few weeks. We've been able to see my grandma and grandpa Button (Michael's great grandparents) from South Dakota, we celebrated Michael's second birthday with them while they were here, Michael and I took a road trip to visit my mom overnight last week, Mike's sister had her baby boy on Wednesday and my brother Blase and his fiancee Marissa had their baby Friday, and we've been super spring cleaning!
Michael got a hair cut (much needed) and I was SO proud of him, he still had to sit on my lap facing me, but he let the stylist finish his hair cut without screaming and throwing a fit. He looks so big now! He's been absolutely adorable! With the addition of new babies, he's been oohing and aahing over them (telling us "sshhh, baby sleeping" and telling them "night night" when he walks away). He's been super sweet lately and wanting to cuddle and hug all day (I love those moments). He's been getting really good at counting and can count to 6 on his own and 10 with help. He's also showing signs of being ready for potty training soon and asking to sit on the potty (he just hasn't pottied in the potty yet or really connected those dots yet).
We went to the zoo last weekend with my dad and the rest of the family and had a blast. Grandpa took Michael down the big giraffe slide and then he got Uncle Blase to do it with him also. Grandpa also bought food for Michael to feed to some goats and sheep and Michael kissed one of the sheep on the cheek (he is such a stinkin cutie). Michael was hilarious too, we'd be pointing out an animal and he would yell "a tree" or "a rock". He gets so excited about everything.
Mike got his stitches removed and is on his way to finally healing all the way. After removing two of the screws from his leg, it has already moved his bones a few millimeters closer together and his doctor expects a full recovery within 6 weeks. He is finally off light duty and able to keep active. He still gets sore, but he's good. :)
It was an exciting week in the world of babies. Mike's sister was due on May 10th and was induced on May 19th. After a C-section, she delivered an adorable 6lb 12oz baby boy they named Aiden. My brother Blase and his fiancee Marissa were due to have their baby boy on May 23, but she had him on Friday morning, May 21st. He was 6lbs 5oz and they named him Matix Anthony. He's is a cutie too. All these babies, it's hard to believe Michael was their size just a couple of years ago.
I finally passed my last math class and I only have 4 classes left in my associate degree career. I'm super excited to be close to reaching my first milestone. I started right after Michael was born and I wish I had gone right after high school because it's been hard, but it's going well and I'm on track. I won't be done for a while though, I'm going to get my Bachelor's and Master's as well. But I'm taking it one step at a time for now. :)
Yep, life is good. :) I am super blessed, having fun, and living the dream.
