Braydon is 20 months old and we are celebrating 3 years of marriage




Today is mine and Craig's 3rd wedding Anniversary and our little man is 20 months old. We are so blessed to have such a fun loving son. He brightens our lives and fills our home with so much love and laughter. I feel so fortunate to have two incredible boys in my life and another little peanut on the way.

Braydon is a major ham! He loves socializing. Whenever we go anywhere he waves and smiles at everyone and will randomly start playing tag with kids in stores or restaurants. He makes these impish faces when he knows he's about to do something I might not approve of. He'll test his boundaries as much as possible. He'll start walking off and slyly wave to me while shrugging his shoulders saying "Buh bye!" and I'll say, "No Braydon, stay here" and he'll stop for a moment. Then he'll slowly side step away and say "Buh Bye" and I'll say "No Braydon, stay here!" and it will continue on and on that way as if one of these times I'll change my mind. He's a persuasive little bugger.

He also loves to go potty on his little toilet trainer seat. He will ask me to take off all his clothes while he says "pee, pee, co,co" and will get completely naked and sit on his seat and pee. The toilet makes a cheering noise when he goes and he'll get really excited and claps.

He loves to tickle and be tickled. He'll raise his hands up in front of his face and wiggle his fingers and run up to you and tickle you. He's a crack up!

Big Brother Braydon!



Braydon is going to be a big brother! We found out about a month ago and an ultrasound confirmed a healthy baby. I am 9 weeks pregnant today. The baby is expected on March 22, 2012. They will be 27 months apart. We are so happy about our growing family! Braydon is going to be the best big brother ever!

Lake Tahoe August 2011














Braydon and I flew to Tahoe to meet up with Mimi and Grampy Wilder, Jesse and Wendy and Dylan on August 6th. On the following Thursday Craig flew up to meet us and Kim, Rick and Jake came as well. We had so much fun!! Braydon was in heaven up there. He and Dylan were hilarious together. Braydon is 19 months old and Dylan is almost 15 months. Bray would try and hug her and tickle her and I think she would get irritated which made it that much more funny. Jesse and Jake were sooo cute with the little cousins, they played with them all day, taking them to the pool, playing ball and just running around.

Braydon went Kayaking a bunch which he LOVED. He would point and say "Boat!" and then run over to it and climb in until someone took him. He would chat the whole time he was in the Kayak pointing to the water saying "Fish!" and "Duck!" Bray and Dylan also went on a couple bike rides with us in the carrier behind the bike. They hated their helmets but overall had a good time.

We went sailing a couple times too which of course Braydon had a blast doing as well. We played music on the boat and Bray and Dylan would dance. Dylan does this dip thing with her body and Bray points his fingers and moves his arms up and down. They both have very serious dancing faces like they are concentrating on their moves.
