Halloween Night - 90 degrees outside

Halloween this year was 90 degrees and hot. Brayden's costume however was meant for 50 degree weather. We opted to put him in a "Little Devil" onesie for the beginning of the night and then forgot the camera for the second party. We did get a couple of him with pizza all over his face though. He wouldn't stay in the picture with all the neighbor children, but I thought it was too cute not to include.

First Day of School

Brayden started school today at OH United Methodist Church. He is one of 8 kids and 2 teachers in the class and goes on MW from 9-1. The first week went better than I expected and on Wed. he was ready to go back and have more fun with his friends. I am really happy with the program so far and so excited that we made it in.I'm ready!Let's go to school.Walking in with my cup.After a long day at school, he was super tired.

Don't take my Longhorn

Nanny and I went to the UT store at the mall today and Brayden picked up this stuffed longhorn. There was something about this particular longhorn that got him hooked and he wouldn't give it up. We tried many distractions but there was no giving in on Brayden's part. Nanny finally gave in and bought it for him and it turns out he STILL won't let go. It is his new sleeping friend and he carries it around with him like his blanket. It's a good thing his mom and dad approve.the death grip

don't take him please!

can I get anything else in this swing with me?

"dee" - Brayden's word for deer. He gets so excited to see them at Nanny and G-Daddy's house. I think it was the first time he sat still all day.

POWER TOOLS!!

Brayden is such a big boy these days. Here he is helping daddy with the fence.

Hear me ROAR!

Brayden is going to be a lion this year for Halloween so we decided to make a dry run in the costume. He doesn't really like wearing it and frankly I don't blame him since it is 95 degrees outside and the costume is furry fleece. He looks so cute it in though and hopefully it will get colder soon.

Pumpkin patch

We took Brayden to the pumpkin patch today. The pictures didn't turn out nearly as cute as they did last year. This year he wanted to throw the pumpkins instead of pose cutely by them. I managed to get a few pictures and Brayden managed to have a blast as usual. We went to Central Market afterwards for lunch and he played so well with Rylie on the playground. I was very impressed since I am normally having to leave early for behavior issues. I guess he is getting old enough and finally understanding or Rylie is a good influence :)

Driving Mr. Brayden

Brayden likes to drive the car these days and he especially likes to press all the buttons. This can keep us busy for hours.
