Brayden is 15 months old today




I am both excited to see Brayden grow and sad that he is leaving the baby stage. Each day he does something new to show me how he is growing. He understands everything we say and ask of him and he can now climb the bar stools, turn on the water for the bath tub and he is trying to figure out how to turn the door knobs. He helps me dress him and when I am folding clothes he pulls his shirts down and tries to put them on. He is a brave little boy with not a whole lot of fear. He sees us walking down stairs and has now decided that he doesn't want to go down on his tummy anymore and he tries walking down which usually results in him falling. Thankfully he's a tough boy!

Hunter and Brayden are starting to play very well together. Granted there is the fighting but for the most part they are learning to share and that it is more fun playing together. This morning while I was vacuuming, Hunter was pulling Brayden on the blanket and I had to stop and get pictures. Hunter is also learning to comfort Brayden and it is such a sweet thing to watch. Brayden loves his big brother and is always looking for Hunter and wants to do everything that Hunter is doing. I definitely see how the 2nd and 3rd kids grow up faster.

We had a great day today and Katrina came over this afternoon to play with Hunter while I got outside to do some yard chores. I got a few plants planted, some weeds pulled, watered, cleaned the dog kennel, set up the tent to air it out and washed our sleeping bags. We are really looking forward to our camping trip next weekend. I hope the weather holds up.
