Dylan Has a 2nd Birthday Party!

On December 12th, Dylan had his 2nd birthday party at Gymboree in the Woodlands. With a train theme, it was a choo choo good time with some of his family and friends. Thanks to all who could attend. I can't believe he will be 2 on December 19th.

Brayden Turns 6 Months!

At 6 months Brayden is 20 pounds, 6 ounces and 28 inches tall. A big boy! The poor baby had to get 5 shots during his check-up but, did great. He is sitting up great, making a lot of noise, and starting to eat solids on his own.

The Boys See Santa!

Today, Dylan and Brayden went to see Santa and lets just say both attempts Brayden just loved it but, Dylan was a different story. He screamed his head off at the sight of Santa and the only way we got this picture was with me sitting there with them. Yes, I am in the picture!! The photographer draped the Christmas cloth over my knees and Dylan is sitting on me lap. I am bent over in the chair. For a split second I was horrified at the idea. Would Santa's rear end be in my face? Then I thought anything for family memories.. right?! But, that chair was so big and he was sitting on the edge of it that it actually worked!

A little closer would be nice.

Brayden Turns 5 Months!

At 5 months Brayden is growing like a weed and rolling over on his tummy. He is eating his green veggies and likes being in his Exersaucer and jumper seat. But, still the best entertainment for him is his big brother.

Happy Halloween!

Pictures with the Pumpkins!

Last Sunday after church we went to the pumpkin patch to take some pictures.

Brayden is 4 Months!

At 4 months Brayden is a big 17 pounds and 6 ounces. I think he is trying to catch up with his big brother! Brayden is smiling, cooing, sitting up with support, and starting to roll over. He is a super sweet baby. Boy, the second sure does grow up fast.

The two stinkers!

Fun at Old McDonald's Farm!

This past Saturday we took the boys to Old McDonald's Farm where they really enjoyed themselves. Dylan loved chasing the turkey, feeding the bunnies, petting the deer and baby

goats, and riding the train. Also, he especially loved taking his first horse ride. He wanted to go again and again. Brayden enjoyed watching everything.

Old McDonald had a farm and on that farm he had a rooster named Dylan!

Dylan's First Masterpiece!

The other day I decided to give Dylan his own art supplies drawer in the kitchen. Well, the first day of art class and this is what he created besides a big mess! I think if you squint really hard it might be confused with a Monet...hehe.

Of course it's on the refrigerator any mother would.

Dylan getting acquainted with his medium.

Well, no posting is complete without cute pictures of Brayden.

The Boys Get a Swing!

Dylan loves to roll his trucks and cars down the slide.

Dylan climbs right up the ladder himself and down the slide. What a big boy!

Brayden loves his little swing. He fell asleep in it after 2 minutes of swing!

Dylan loves his car swing. I hope he will learn to share with brother when he gets older!

Dylan loves gliding with Mommy!

Brayden Turns 2 Months!

At two months, Brayden is growing fast and gaining much better neck control. His checkup went great. He weighs a big 13 pounds and 3 ounces! He starting to smile and likes being on his tummy.
