Waiting for 2010!

This picture was taken a little after 8:00 p.m. on New Year's Eve. It was definitely Braiden's bed time. He couldn't wait for the end of 2009 and the beginning of 2010. ~yawnnn !!!

Before our long drive tomorrow morning to Sacramento where we will be spending the holidays at Grandpa Dale's house, we decided to take Braiden out on a test drive in his new carseat. As soon as he was buckled in, he passed right out!

Perfect fit!

Now let's take this new ride on a test drive!

Amongst all the hustle and bustle of deliveries going on here for the holidays, there was one delivery that came today coinsiding with Braiden's 8 month birthday. He got his new BIG Boy carseat. Being that he is out growing his baby carseat, Michael convinced me that it was time to order Braiden a new one. It also comes at a good time when we plan to travel to Grandpa's house in Sacramento for the holidays.

These pictures were taken when all three kids were around the same age -about 4 months old.

Yes! This floaty lasted all these years until Matthew blew it up for Braiden's Big Picture and popped it. Luckily it made it through another few minutes for us to capture a few shots!
Can you guess which picture is

Matthew? Hailey? Braiden?

My Reflection

Braiden has discovered his reflection! I say that with an exclamation point because it buys us a few minutes of enjoyment. We can be doing something and out of the blue we hear this uncontrollable laughter and sometimes screaming noises! To our surprise we see Braiden entertaining himself through his own reflection!
