Brayden loves to help Daddy fix things. He has his own electric screwdriver and uses my head light to help out.Brayden counted from 1-13 for the first time tonight, all by himself. Daddy and I were blown away.
I drew a triangle the other day and asked him what it was. He said "triangle", of course, but then added, "3 sides" and traced the outline of the sides with his finger. Wow!
I got Brayden sorting cups with teddy bears at the used store. He has been matching colors on his ball game so, I thought he just might be challenged by it. He got it the first time I showed him what to do. He would even say, "Red cup, red bear. Blue cup, blue bear." I only showed him what to do I did not used color words like he did. He is amazing!
The other night at dinner we forgot to say our prayers. Brayden ate a few bits and stopped, putting his hands together and said his own prayer. It went like this: "Thank you God, for our food, ate our food, a great day, bears. Amen." I thought it was a beautiful prayer, especially for his first prayer by himself.
We are having regular give and take conversations every day now. He helps sing songs and read stories with me. I am starting to give him some choices and he is able to pick between two things he wants sometimes. We are having more fun than ever. I am loving this stage.
Here are some of his funny looks as he says, "Broken Daddy!"
Brayden loves to make noises in cups and bowls and hear his voice sound funny.
Here is Brayden playing fall on the bed.
Here is Brayden waking up.
He loves his baby!
Mommy used to sleep like this all the time as a child.
Brayden loves to make faces. He can make a happy face, which you see here, an angry face, and a scared face.
And, of course, a silly face!
Brayden plays is the snow every day. We made a BIG snowman today.
This is his scared face.
Gramma and Grampa Overly and Auntie E come in 4 days. We are so excited!
