Christmas 2008

How cute is she?

Braedyn is 4!

On Braedyn actual birthday we took him out to dinner at Red Robin (his choice) and he got a BIG birthday Icecream Sunday! We were able to get a few bites out of it before he devoured the entire thing! Then we went home and he got to open his present from us.

Bubblebee Transformer and the Transformers Movie.

Ages 5 and up?? Ya right!!! It took Brandyn about 20min to turn it from the car into the transformer. but the best part was when Braedyn piped up and said "but I want it to be a car!" haha

Then on Monday, the 15th, we had all the family over to celebrate with cake and icecream. Gramma made the pirate hat cake and he loved it!

SANTA!

Mom & I took the boys to see Santa and they did GREAT!!!!! We went in the middle of the day so there was noone there. I was expecting to have to sit on Santa's lap with them like I do every other year. They both ran right up to him and started talking to him about his reindeer and snow and Christmas. It was great.
It probably helps that I pulled out all the Christmas movies and cartoons about a week ago and have been letting them watch them and see how unscary Santa is.

Just because....

someone asked if I was ever going to let Brandyn be in a picture on the blog.....

....freezing our butts off (litterly) at the AFA vs BYU game about a month ago.

SNOW!!!!!

This is what we woke up to Sunday morning.....about 6-8inches.



Knee deep snow for Prestyn



Sledding!! Braedyn LOVED it!!!



Prestyn....HATED it!

Daddy & Boe sledding down the hill.

Boe!

Mommy & Boe Sledding



Prestyn decided it was more fun to scoot on his bum down the hill. And he did not like that there was snow on his boots. Poor kid.




And.....another attept at a decent picture of the two of them.....

Preschool Thanksgiving Program

I didn't have the right setting on the camera...but this one was too cute to not share. The little girl is LaLa (yes...like la la la la) but as far as we could tell her mom is not a hippie! I am pretty sure he has a crush on her...shes the same one I caught flirting with him in class one day.

Singing "Ten Big Turkeys" and "Mr Turkey"

It hard to tell what they are singing but they sure would good at the part where they gobbles like turkeys. And they all had costumes. His class was all Turkeys. some of the other classes were Indians and Pilgrims

There you can kinda see the turkey costume.

THE FEAST!

Note: he is sitting next to LaLa

His class's "Feast Table" They have Turkey, applesauce, bread, carrots, Pumpkin pie pudding and juice.

better view of the back of the costumes

Brandyn & Braedyn with their goofy Cheeses for the camera.

Braedyn and his friend Joshua who lives on our street.

Pal's

As much as I dislike this darn dog, (he is a clumsy 90lb bucking horse with a weak stomach that barks if you put him out side) he is Braedyn's "Pal" (like Pluto is Mickey's Pal) and I don't have the heart to get rid of him.

Prestyn- The Time-Out Kid

This kid is definitly a perfect example of a 2 year old.
These two are him practicing his time out faces

Throwing a fit on top of the table....

Time out....

There is a time out spot just about every house we go to and he knows exactly where its at.

This one cracked me up. I told him to stop hitting his brother or he's going to time out...so he grabbed his pillow and decided to just camp out there.

He can also be fun too...definitly a ham.

He LOVES Mickey...can you tell?

Watching the numbers in the elevator.

Just dropped Braedyn at school and he was sad that he couldn't stay.

And did I mention he is an awesome sleeper! he will sleep 12-14 hour nights and take a 3 hour afternoon nap!
