Boozers Board

I loved the pictures form his Birthday Post so I started playing around with a board & came up with this:) I think I like:) My room is green, I just may frame it in there. His Blue Eyes I tell ya they melt my heart.

Who is 3.......

My Little Boo, My Little Braiden Boo..............

Who is 3!!!!

WoW!

I can not believe my sweet sweet little boy is 3 years old today:)

Braiden was due on November 14, but he decided he wanted to make his entrance early!!

He was born on 10*29*05 @ 6:11am

He weighed 7 lbs 10 oz & was 19 inches long.

He came into this world screaming & crying & continued with this for about the 1st 6 months.

When you ask him what he did when he was a baby he'll say, "me just cried & cried & cried."

Yep, that was about it!!

He has more than made up for the first 6 months with the last 2 1/2, he is such a fun loving, care free, easy going toddler.

Really he has never even thrown a "real" temper tantrum.

Our little Braiden Paul is so full of life & energy. He is all boy, he loves anything with a superhero & "bad guy" 

Right now his favorites our Spiderman & Incredible Hulk.

He continues to keep us all laughing & goes through life with such a care free attitude. He really doesn't care if you are upset with him or if he is in trouble, there isn't a lot that gets to him, which is good for him, as his parents, not so much:)

The things this little boy comes up with, he is contstantly making us laugh.

His latest was the other morning when I was telling him to get up to the table & eat before the fly gets it. He looks over at his breakfast, looks at the fly, and responds, "It's Ok Mommy, cause flies don't eat to much."

Like always, is all I could do was laugh.

I am so excited to get to experience so many more things with our sweet little boy, it is so bitter sweet, because he is so much fun as he is growing up, but he is no longer my "Baby Braiden"

He is my big boy, my sweet sweet boy.

Happily I can say I think he is more a "Mama's Boy" Most days anyway:)

He can melt my heart with those big blue eyes, most days they get him whatever he wants:) 

Braiden Paul you have brought so much laughter & fun to our family, I love you little boy all the way to the moon & back.

My Dad Always Says.......

"What do you tell the girl with 2 black eyes?

Nothing because you already told her twice."

So, really I was trying to teach my daughter some "soccer" moves, and I ran right in to the goal post. Yep, it is true. If you ever wonder where my kids got their clumsiness from, it isn't Brad:)

It started out looking pretty bad. As each day goes on it seems to get uglier, if that's possible.

Saturday there were probably around 40 people here, & they all got to see me at my best:) Sorry for those who had to miss it, it really was a sight. Brad said I should just paint my whole face green & be the goblin! I had only 1 black eye then, I've kicked it up a notch since the party. Now there are 2.

Oh, by the way My Baby is 1

& Braiden Boo will be 3 in 2 days.....

Where does the time go????

The top is the original injury, & below is how it looks now!

5a.m.

A year ago today we were taking the kids to my Aunts house to head to the hospital to meet our sweet baby boy Carter Bradley. I remember feeling so nervous on the drive in, it was so different than the other 2, because with them I did not know I was going to have them that day. There was a chance we would be sent home with them, but not with our little Carter Bug, we were on our way to have our little sweet. I knew in just a couple of hours we would meet our new little one, such a different feeling to know this was it. He was on his way to us.

He was born at 5:00am weighing 8lbs 4 oz, & 20 1/2 inches long..... he was absolutely perfect. It was love at first sight. I can''t believe tomorrow we will be having a GIANT birthday bash for my baby. He. Will. Be. 1. At. 5a.m. I love you my sweet sweet little boy. You have made our family complete.

There will be plenty more 1 year talk, for now I just wanted to remember the night leading up to the day I met my boy.

Vampire Bites

Mr Boo is all ready for Halloween:)

He found the bag of Halloween goodies & just had to get into it. He pulled out the scary vampire teeth & crazy glasses! Silly boy. It fits his personality well. The other day my Sister Ange told me he is going to be the class clown.

It is true, he probably will. he is always coming up with something to make us laugh!

After he put everything on he came up & said, "Mommy, me gonna bite you but it not hurt."

StoryBoards

I am sure most of you know I have been quite addicted to My Lovely New Camera, Mac, & PS. So, I had to do it, I had to learn how to make a storyboard!! I needed 3 for a wall in the playroom, my Guru Photographer Queen PSer Sister Lesley normally does them for me, but I figured what the hey, I can learn how so I can quit buggin her:)  So, I did the 2 boys' & Lesley did Alexee's. Hers is much more fun, with much more detail, I will have to pick her brain on improving, but for now I'm havin fun:)

Little Red Flag

Yes, Alexee had her 1st Crazy Hair Day! 

She had the idea that she wanted to wear the American Flag in her hair, I was afraid she would take some ones eye out with the pole, so we came up with this instead. There was a contest & she was so set on being the "Winner" I had all the Mommy talks with her, like it isn't just about winning, & you need to be happy for whoever wins, it just matters that you tried your hardest & had fun. Ya, whatever Mom, she wanted to win & that was all she could talk about.

Well, she pulled it off, she was the winner for the Craziest Hair for her grade!

Good Job Sis, you really know how to pull off a crazy head of hair:) 

Fair Days

We went to the fair a couple weeks ago & the kids had a blast!! 

They were so brave! Alexee wanted to ride everything, stuff I wouldn't even ride! So we talked Amber into riding one of the big scary rides with her & half way through it Amber was getting sick so she screamed for them to stop the ride. Well, Alexee didn't want to get off, so Amber took anther one for the team & kept going! Before long the ride flipped into reverse mode & that was the end of that. Both of them started feeling sick, the ride had to come to a stop & poor Amber got sick & Alexee was not feeling so good herself. Later we talked Pat into taking them on the big pirate ship that goes way up in the air, because again Mommy was being a chicken butt:) They rode all the rides, we grubbed on the delicious Funnel Fair Cakes, Bradley tested his strength at the Bam O Meter & won some prizes, faces were painted,  practiced walking, we successfully wore them out, so home to bed we went!!
