Max is Two!

Well, the first boy of August had his birthday on Sunday. He had a blast opening presents and eating cake! He got the traditional underwear to kick off the idea of potty training. He got cars which he LOVES and a cute outfit. Just enough for a two year old. Walker (and I as managing baker) baked him a butterscotch cake (recipe courtesy of Mrs. Wendy Rathje). While we are not really butterscotch people, this cake is yummy and a family hit! We had pizza for dinner which is Max's fave dinner. Walker and Lauren helped wrap presents. They loved putting on a birthday for him. All in all it was a nice day.
Brady will have his on the 25th, but he is running out of patience for it. I do have good news on the Brady front. He went to school today in his shirt that looks like daddy (a long sleeve oxford type shirt Doug got him on clearance at Walmart, on a 90 degree day) and didn't cry AT ALL! What a major improvement from last week! Whew! The catch is that he says he will only go two more days then he is done. We'll see about that.
We also got cards today from grandpa that make music when you open them. What a good idea! The boys loved them!
Here's hoping tomorrow goes as well as today for the drop off!
