Our Thanksgiving

This year, Chris and I made our own Thanksgiving dinner. It actually turned out edible!! Here are some pics of Braden eating some mashed potatoes. He loved them! I was trying to teach him to use the spoon but it wasn't the most successful attempt. He had fun with it but I couldn't actually say he ever got the potatoes into his mouth without a little help. :) The bottom pictures are after his nap. I heard him wake up and then it was quiet for awhile. I thought he fell back asleep so I went to peek and there he was standing in his crib. Once they figure it all out, it's over!!

Braden got his first haircut last week. It was getting very long and shaggy. Chris said he was looking like "Joe DIrt" not to mention he was starting a mini mullet in the back. Chris' mom, Cindy cuts hair so she got to do his first haircut. He did pretty good. He looks MUCH better now, but even more like a little boy. What happened to my baby? Tear!

Ball Pit!

Braden got a chance to play in a ball pit at my friend's preschool on Friday. He absolutely loved it! We were already thinking about getting him a ball pit for Christmas and now I think we'll get it for sure! I mean we are going to ask Santa to bring Braden his ball pit!

Being Goofy

Braden loves being goofy in the basement. He has a "ball" with my exercise ball. I'm glad someone is using it! Ha! He also loves to climb in his chair and fall out of it. He is ALL BOY, that's for sure!

GO COLTS!

Braden is ready for the game today! He looks so cute in his Colts jersey...notice how it's getting a little snug around the belly! :)

Our monthly picture

It is getting extremely hard to get Braden's "monthly picture" with the bear. I take his picture each month on his birthday (today is the 4th) with this bear on the couch to show how much he has grown. As you can see, he has more fun flipping the bear and making mommy laugh!
