Decorating

Me and grandma decorated the house one night after Braylen went to bed. It was easier that way. So we decorated the tree and I decorated some of the house. Braylen loves the tree. Everyday he turns on the lights and if there is a new ornament he puts it on. When the tree was first put up he would touch it and I even found one of the candy canes on the coat hook. Next year he's going to love decorating the tree with us.



My Artest


I bought Braylen some finger paints one day thinking that he would love it but mommy was wrong. He was excited when he first saw the bottles of paint. I put some of each color on a plate for him but then he touched the paint. "Ew sticky," was the first thing he said. I thought it was funny. Then he understood you paint on the paper but he still didn't like it.

Mmmmm



When our family bakes the is no such thing as boxes. So everything even to the frosting is homemade. I made a cake one night and the frosting. the cake I made was my GG grandma's 3 hole cake. Then I made a pudding frosting. When I was done it was Braylen's bed time and he wanted a snack so I gave him the mixer. He licked it clean and got messy.

The Teaman's Farm


I took Braylen over to the Teaman's house one day because they have a little farm. They own a few hourses some chickens and dogs. I originally took him to ride the little pony but that totally changed when we got there. Sister Teaman's daughter and her family are living with her so when we got there he just wanted to play with the boys.


He jumped on there tramp-o-lean and was a pro. Then he ran around and tried climbing the dog and climbed all of the swing set. They also got into the toys in the garage. They had balls, trucks, skate bourds and a four wheeler for a kid. As soos as he found the four wheeler he got on it an was trying to get to to go. after he couldn't get thet working he took the skate bourd and started riding that.


The horses were out in the pastures and the little girl brought out apples to feed the horses so braylen threw the apples at the horses to feed them. It was really funny because he kept doing everything that the older boys were. Braylen then found the chicken coup and loved it. As soon as he saw it he sai, "OOO chicken!" I love it. We went in to the barn to put the horses away and Sister Teaman filled up a bucket for the dog to drink. Braylen was watching the dog a little to closely. When I wasn't watching he dunk his face into the bucket to drink like the dog. I only realized it when I saw water dripping from his nose. then he turned and did it again.
It was dinner time when we left so Braylen was cold, hungry and tired all not good mixed together.

Grandma and Grandpa


Grandma and grandpa or as Braylen calls then mama and papa are his world (after me of course). Every night he has to give grandma and grandpa night night kisses or he has a fit. His face lights up around them. He loves to dance with papa when ever music comes on any music on the tv or radio. And grandma he loves to cuddle with.


One night grandpa was out working on the car and Braylen was mad that he couldn't find him from any windows he could reach so I put him on grandpa's chair to look out the window above and he stood their watching grandpa work. after that when he couldn't find grandpa he would climb the chair to look out that window.

He Loves His Hats


Braylen loves his hats. If there's a hat around he wants to wear it. He has a baseball cap then he has Grandpa's who he calls papa. And More recently he has the winter hat. when he finds a hat he puts it on. It's really cute because the baseball caps he can only put on himself when he puts them on backwards. Since he's a big boy he always puts on his hats himself. the winter hat he has a bill like a baseball cap so the hat he puts on side ways and if i fix his hats he gets really mad and takes it off to put on again his way.

Fall!


So Braylen loves to play outside and I thought that he would love to play in the leaves. He didn't really care for the leaves he just wanted to swing. He did run around and throw leaves or kick them at me and he thought it was hilarious when I kicked them at him.



My dad and I a couple days later were outside raking up the leaves and Braylen of course was outside playing. He milks being outside whenever he can. It took us a while to rake up all the leaves but when we were done the pile ran the length of our house from the beginning of the dinning room to the end of the kitchen. We have one tree in our yard so all the leaves are not ours which really irritates us. And of course after raking up leaves you have to jump in them. So I threw Braylen into the pile not thinking it was that deep and he freaked out. I had to dig him out because it was deeper then I realized. He thought it was funny when me and Grandpa got the leaves though.
