This one is blurry because everytime Brayden sees me, he starts flapping his arms up & down like a bird!! Cute little feet. They are almost always crossed like this :) His new thing...holding on when the handle is up on the carseat. The daycare teachers said that he does it in the swing & bouncy seat too. Too funny! We finally got him to leave the sunglasses on long enough to take a photo! New favorite toy (it's an old remote)! I'm Flying!! How's this thing work??
Matt's 31st Birthday was on Sunday as well as it being Father's Day! To celebrate, TR came over & keep Brayden so that Matt & I could go to dinner for his birthday. TR always gets some great photos so I left the camera out for her to play around with. Unfortunately, Brayden was a bit fussy, but she still got a few great shots.
We had a great dinner and Matt's mom had made 3 cakes. One for each occasion that we were celebrating! Close up of Matt's Birthday Cake Close up of Benny & Teresa's Anniversary Cake Close up of the Father's Day Cake
Brayden enjoyed playing the piano for the first time...maybe he is going to take after most of Matt's family and be a great musician :)
Brayden also got to spend some quality time with his dad, BB, and Paw.
Today we took Brayden swimming at our friend Missy's house! Even though the water was a little chilly at first, Brayden seemed to enjoy floating in the water & eventually decided to splash & kick some. We are looking forward to many more swimming adventures this summer at our community pool & at the beach!!!
Really not sure about this....
This is LOTS of fun, even though I am a little bit cold!
Last weekend we went to Grammy & Paw's house. They had 2 surprises for Brayden when we arrived!!
1) They had gotten out my old rocking horse (the kind with the springs) for Brayden to ride. 2) They had bought him a swing & had it ready to go in the back yard for Saturday.
Brayden had a blast Friday night riding the horse! He was still a bit small to ride by himself, so someone had to hold onto him the entire time, but he laughed & giggled & squealed the entire time!
Look Mommy...NO HANDS!!!!
Ok Grammy, I am tried of hiding this horse.
On Saturday, Brayden enjoyed the swing for a while. This was really his first experience in a swing (he sat in a swing at the park about 2 months ago, but we didn't really push him much). At first, Brayden wasn't very sure about the swing,
but after a few minutes he really warmed up to it & ended up LOVING it!
A couple of things to note before watching this video...1) I am no good at actually recording videos and 2) this is my first time editing, adding text, music etc to a video. Hopefully, I will improve in both areas.
On Saturday, Brayden & I went to visit Julie, Steve, & Wesley. Wesley is 6 weeks old today and is growing so fast! Of course, the first time we meet Wesley, neither Julie nor I remembered to take any pictures of the boys together. This time...we remembered!
Brayden is our sports loving son. This kid has amazing football, baseball, soccer, and basketball skills! He loves trains, cars, sports, firetrucks, and has recently developed a love for drawing :) He also really loves his little sister!!

Lilly is our sweet, cuddly, sassy daughter. She loves to follow her big brother around, that is when she isn't following Mommy around :) She loves to eat, dance, and be silly!
