Drinks, Desserts and DIAPERS!

some of my closest friends and family threw me a small "diaper party" in celebration of the twins arrival.  I was in need of a night relaxing and laughing with the girls so it was really great.  One of my cousins also made the twins a diaper cake which was really special as I had received one for Brayden too. with all the diapers we have received we are off to a great start with keeping these babies "covered", i really appreciate the thoughtfulness of so many people.  blessed as always!



pregnant cousins!

2 1/2 ...every little bit counts!

Brayden turned 2 1/2! So we had fun celebrating with 1/2 a cake!
While we would not trade him for the world, this age is a bit of a challenge...he is very independent yet still needing a lot of attention and wanting it the minute he wants it.  He also is listening to what everyone is saying and picking up stuff you do not expect.  He also has the attitude and context to go along with it which takes you off guard..

Tell him to do something - "Okay!  Relax!"
He wants something - "I SAID!"

So we are doing our best to keep up on our manners and to talk nicely and he is still very much a loveable and outgoing active little boy who loves to be right in the middle helping!  and all boy!  Tractors, Motorcycles, wanting to drive, tools are still his passion.  

The other day he asked me if we could get a trailer to hook on to the car to put all his tools in.  I can't wait to see what the future holds for my handy little man!  

We love you Brayden!!!






Pregnancy & Picasso

Brayden's pregnancy fell during Halloween so we painted the bump a pumpkin.  So this time around with the twin's pregnancy, I thought it would be fun to let Brayden paint the bump!
