Growing Up!


Braxton is officially 2 1/2 as of today! Everyone has been telling me that when the baby comes Braxton will all of a sudden seem so grown up and it's happening already! I can't believe the things he comes up with lately. Today we went fishing at Boulevard with his new fishing pool that Jeff bought him Tuesday. He can already cast it all by himself. Then we went to lunch at my favorite spot, Avenue Bread, and we just sat there and ate and talked about our fishing adventure. He is so much company and so fun to spend my days with. Jeff was all worried last night because he has been telling Braxton that they are going to go fishing on Saturday and now Jeff has to work. He is really bummed about having to cancel the trip but we both decided that Braxton is way more understanding and forgiving than either of us when it comes to breaking plans. Kids are so great that way!

We are trying to prep him into "big brotherhood" by reading lots of books about babies and about being a big brother. He's not at all into feeling the baby move in my tummy but he knows something is in there as his sitting space is shrinking!

I love the little suit, he looks so cute!
I know what you mean about him growing up, I love Paden's age he is so much fun to be around. I think about when he was a newborn and can't believe how time has flown by and he's a little man now. I was holding a 4 week old baby a few days ago and realized even my one year old isn't a baby any more!

He is such a sweetheart, I really don't know how you got him to be so caring of others, I know you both are, but he is such so sweet and kind to everyone. I loved watching him fish, what a fun age.

Braxton sure is a cutie and you're lucky he is such a great kid. Keep us updated when that little girl arrives.
