Braddock's 4th Birthday

HappY BiRthDay to our Braddock. I can't believe he is 4. He is no longer our little boy, well he hasn't been for a while, but I think I just noticed. He really wanted friends over this year, so he invited a few neighbor kids and had a party in the back yard. Braddock wanted the party to be Cars theme, and he got to go to the new "Cars 2" movie with his dad.

Preparing for the party.

The kids made their own pizzas.

The Cars pinata we made as a family.

The craft table ready to go to make their own license plates.

Braddock's friends singing "Happy Birthday" to him.

Getting ready for the pinata.

The first swing of the party.

Bayes enjoying a popsicle and her new chair from her Uncle Thane.

Had to get a pic with the birthday boy. Beginning to open presents, we didn't get to the presents till around 7 that night, poor boy.

The boys enjoying the new toys.

You know its been a long day, if your child ends up outside looking like this.

The end to a great 4th Birthday. By the way he tells me he is almost 5 now. Where does the year go!

Everyday Moments:

If Bayes throws herself down 8 times today in a fit of rage it is a normal day. (18 months)

Bayes started nursery, thank goodness. (18 months)

Braddock had his first talk in primary and his first primary program this last month. He is amazing at memorizing so he had both parts done after a few runs at it. We had to help him when he got up to do is talk but he flew solo during the primary program which made us proud. I can't believe how big he is. (age 4)

Braddock really had to go the bathroom on the way home from preschool. I told him that we were almost home and he would have to wait. He was silent for a moment and then asked, "Is it ok to toot in the car?" I told him that would be ok. (age 4)

Just jokingly I told Bayes to go get the Book of Mormon from the drawer because I was too lazy to get it. Next thing I know she crawls over, opens the drawer, and gets the Book of Mormon. They know more than we give them credit for.

(13 months)

Braddock has won both the coloring contest that he has entered. Maybe he is the only 3 year old that enters? (age 3)

Bayes had to have surgery and get tubes placed in her ears.

(12 months)

Bayes got her ears pierced. (12 months)

Braddock cried yesterday when he saw that it snowed on our

flowers. He must get that from his mom, because I felt like crying. (age 3)

Uncle Mel came over today with his dog to visit mom and dad. Whenever the dog moved, Bayes would shake and start screaming. She was so scared. (age 10 months)

"I really had a fun day with you today." (Braddock age 3)

Bayes finally decided that she would start crawling forward. (age 10 months)

Braddock came in our room in the middle of the night last night and said, "I think there is poop in my pants." I don't know how he slept through that one? (age 3)

Every time we get Bayes out of bed, she leans over us to see her rocking horse. We go over and say hi and pet the horse, and than we can leave her room. (Bayes 9 months)

"I really want to go the the temple when I grow up"
(Braddock age 3)

I told Braddock that Jesus lives in heaven and his response was, "I think he lives down because the tooth fairy lives up."
(Braddock age 3)

"I want to stay with you forever, I don't want to go anywhere else" (Braddock age 3)

When I do something that Braddock approves of, he tells me, "good mom good". I guess I've done good when I have received multiply good moms in a day. (Braddock age 3)

Braddock loves to learn, hiding from his mom, building things, and doing whatever his dad is doing. (Braddock age 3)

Bayes loves to wave, getting attention from everyone, and her pink polka dot blanket. ( Bayes 8 months)
