My Beautiful Birthday Flowers

Thanks Babe!

Our Sweet Paityn joined our family

Tuesday 5/8/12

Bringing our Baby Girl Home

Braxton checking out his new baby sister

(at this point in time Braxton was obsessed with tissues. He had to have one in his hand all of the time to wipe his nose when ever he had a "booger". Most of the time he didn't actually have a messy nose - but he liked to wipe it anyway!

After coming home Brax was aching for attention

so

Me and Him went in the back yard and colored with chalk.



By the end it was just HIM! Whenever I would pick up a color he would decide that he wanted that color too. After 3 or 4 times of giving him the chalk color I decided it would be eaiser to just let him have all of them!

After the chalk got old he found a metal magnet thing

and decided it was time to "fight" 

Braxton, we love you so much! We are so proud of you and the great Big Brother that you are already - and to see how much you love her. Paity is to lucky to be your little sister.

Braxton has so many little cousins his age on Nate's side of the family.

There were 3 missing from this picture between the ages of 8 months and 3 years old!

 Our "happy" family

It had been a really long day

and

Brax was showing how we all were really feeling

What a special Mother's day - getting to spend it with our families and especially our amazing mom's!

I am so blessed to be the mother of 2 adorable and oh so special kiddos.

I love them both so much and am so grateful for the joy they bring to my life and to our family.

Not only was it Mother's Day but Paityn turned 1 week old!

What a wonderful 1st week it has been~

-1 week old-

Braxton and Paityn love to watch each other

Brax loves to do whatever Paityn is doing

Braxton Loves Play Dough

His imagination with it is AMAZING!!

-2 weeks old-

For Memeorial Day this year

(after getting Paityn's new born pictures taken)

we went to Lagoon with Nate's Family

What a fun Day it was!

Braxton LOVED the Mary-go-Round,

the TERROR RIDE

and

the Sky Ride!!

He couldn't go on the Bigger Little Kids rides because he was 1 1/2 inches to short

(they were rediculously strict)

and the little kid rides we got him on

were not a hit - he cried the whole time the ride was going.

Yes, we were "those parents"

and Braxton was

"that kid"

as he was hystarically crying throught the ride!
