A Love For Water

Both boys get so excited every night when I ask them if they are ready to go upstairs for a bath; Brayden starts taking his clothes of right when he walks into our bathroom & Colton just starts smiling & screaming.........they love the water so much!!

Our Turkey Day........

Thanksgiving was full of yummy food, family, & of course the kids had to play ball outside too.  It was a great time but it really made me miss my side of the family & really realize that we won't see them AGAIN this year for Christmas.  Before I married Lance there were Christmas' that I missed & I was OK with it (I guess) but now that the boys are here I really hate that they don't get their Christmas with their Grams, Puddy & Aunt Mammie.......... 

Colton meeting his 2nd cousin Peyton; they are only 2 weeks apart & Colton is twice her size.




Brayden stayed outside most of the afternoon playing ball with the big kids; he thinks he is their size!  He did a great job running after them & even throwing the ball a few times.  






I know this is really late but as I said before I am behind & just trying to play catch up.  I hope everyone's Thanksgiving was as good as ours was!!

Still Trying For That Christmas Photo......

Outside Fun Times

The weather has been so crazy here lately; last week it was between 60 & 70 degrees & now it is 50 during the day & in the 30's over night.  Since it was nice we took full advantage of the weather & spent as much time outside as we could..........the boys couldn't have had more fun & of course I took advantage of some photo opportunities!

Just Gimmie That Wink.........

Brayden has been trying to wink for a while now & he is getting so close!!


Fallen Behind Yet Again.........

Where in the hell does the time go; I feel like yesterday was just November 1st & we were just starting to get ready for the holidays BUT Thanksgiving has past & Christmas is creeping up pretty fast!!  Oh wait I have a 2 year old & a now 7 month old............that is where my time goes :)  We have been keeping very busy & I am going to do my best to post in the order of things happening but I might get jumbled up here & there.

I have been trying since we put up the downstairs tree to get a great Christmas photo of the boys together BUT in the weeks that I have been trying I haven't been successful.  Brayden doesn't want to sit still at all & when I try to make him (Christmas pj's or not he is on the run 24/7) this is what I get; LOTS OF TEARS.


So I bribed him with his new found favorite candy; a Kit Kat & he calms down but he chocolate gets everywhere but at this point I don't care & just try to get at least one good one.






They don't completely suck but they won't be on our Christmas card either.........they will be good to look back at one day.  Colton is good at "posing" for momma though.



I am dreading B's reaction to Santa but I have been reading him tons & tons about him & am hoping that we get a good photo BUT if we don't again it will be a good photo to look back at!
