My lil Heartbreaker

Braxton was so excited about going to "Big Boy" school today!!! He knew he was taking cupcakes to the Valentine's Day party and also he couldn't wait to give his teachers their presents! Braxton loves his teachers Ms. Audrey and Mrs. Landa. Look at these adorable frames Natalie put together for them.

Natalie, they were a huge hit and the teachers loved them!!!! Thank you!

One of our good friends, Earl came by the office last week to give Braxton a Valentine's Day gift. He was at "Big Boy school", but I made sure that I would give the gift to Brax right away when I picked him up and take a few pictures ;)!!! Earl, he loved the "duckers" (suckers) and the chocolates you gave him! Braxton says "Bank (thank) you Earl"! I know there is a Nestle Crunch heart missing, but I couldn't pass it up...it looked to good! Sorry Earl, I owe you a heart ;)

These suckers are sooo cute!

Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!!!!

Popcorn, Nachos, M&M's, Skittles, Dr.Pepper and Basketball

We have been trying to make it to one of Bradley Kifer's basketball games for weeks now. Well, finally last week we made it to a game. Braxton was sooo excited!!!! He sat there really still and watched Bradley play. He was mesmerized...I think I have a future ball player on my hands...:)Right now Braxton is all about basketball, football and baseball!!!! Brax also found the concession stand filled with every kids favorite foods and he was a happy camper. I think he could get use to this...lol!

Pray for Brayden

It is Friday and almost 5:00...YEAH!!! I finally got caught up on my work here at the office and decided to read some of my favorite blogs. Well, I came across this one blog and it touched my heart so much. I was balling my eyes out.......reading every post. Please click on the Team Brayden button on the right side and you will go to their family blog. Grab a kleenex before reading and then say a prayer for this sweet family. I have no idea who they are, but my prayers are with them. I couldn't imagine what they are going through, not being able to take their baby home, and seeing their baby fight for its life. Ok, so I am in tears writing this post...please read their story and pray for them!!!!!!! I am leaving the office now and going to give my son the biggest hug (even bigger than this morning) , kiss, and tell him how much I love him!!!

Morning Chao's

For all you Mom's out there, you know exactly where I am coming from on this....GETTING YOUR CHILD READY FOR SCHOOL. Getting everything ready for school somedays can run very smoothly, then somedays you are either pulling your hair out, or running around with your head chopped off. Well, this morning was kind of like me running around CRAZY! First of all, Brax did not want to get out of bed, then I am looking at the clock thinking you have got to eat breakfast (it takes him 30 mins sometimes, because it takes him awhile to wake up), then we have to get dressed, fix his lunch, brush teeth, try to use the potty, etc....Ahhhhhh!!!!! Well, we ended up making it to school 5 minutes early, how....I have no idea, but I was impressed with myself. But we forgot to fix something before we left the house, and um.....well, Braxton wanted to fix it himself!!!!!!! Look at this video and it will explain everything, the mood he woke up with, and showing his independency!!!

Future Businessman?

Braxton loves coming to my office to help me work. It was so cute this morning, a customer came in and Brax said "Sir, can I help you, I work on puter (computer)"!!! I loved how Brax was so polite :). The customer was so nice and patient. He would have rather have set there and had a conversation with Braxton than me take of his insurance...lol!!! Finally after about 30 mins of 2 year old conversation and taking care of insurance, it was time for the customer to leave. Brax said "bye come again, have a great day"!
