Knowing how/WHEN to use the word YES

Not only does Braiden know about Starbucks,  now he is in the know about Sonic!  Watch as he know's how (I should say WHEN) to use the word YES by nodding his head up and down for a sip of

Sonic's Berry Lemon Slushy!

An impromtu photo session

Are you ready for my close up?

Today Braiden turned 19 months old...

hence our impromptu photo session.  He was just hanging out posing on his toy box as I was trying to get him ready to play outside.

Braiden's First Year - photo book

I have been sitting on this project for months now.... as a continuation to

Braiden's First Album, "The Trang Family + 1"

I am proud to say that I have completed

his second album up to his "First Year"!

Our blog serves us with it's great purpose of sharing and archiving but to put all of these memories in a physical album is precious. 

Attached is a link for everyone's viewing pleasure!

Here's to reminiscing!

Puzzles

Puzzles Puzzles Puzzles!!!

Puzzles are a staple in our house!  They provide hours of family fun,  not to mention a great developemental tool for children.  We introduced puzzles to all three kids at a young age and Braiden is no exception.  Since the beginning of this school year he has taken an interest in playing with puzzles.  The last few weeks he has been more independently putting the pieces together!  So PROUD of him!!!

This video of Braiden was about the fifth time

and 15 minutes into playing with this one puzzle.

A few puzzles we did over the summer

Pictures of Braiden that are guaranteed to put a smile on your face

and fill your hearts with love!

Daddy's Little Helper

Braiden is so curious as to what Daddy's tools are all about.  He tries to help him but obviously it's dangerous and not his size.  Thank goodness for having a big brother with cool life like toys!  We kept Matthew's tool bench set that is paying off and coming in handy! 

Daddy has a little helper to build our new mini deck!

*LOVE the way Braiden is squatting!!!

Box O' Fun

Knock Knock

I took a picture of him through a peep hole.

Braiden figured out that he was strong enough to knock the box down.

This was just as much fun rolling around in it!

Hailey was squished :P

I'll help you sissy... Baby Honu Makoa to the rescue!!!

I remember having TONS of FUN playing in bigger than me - sized boxes when we were growing up.  That is what Braiden and Hailey experienced tonight!  They had TONS of FUN and I'm sure are looking forward to finding another bigger than me-sized box to have hours (I mean MINUTES) of playtime!
