Kids Carnival

Fun afternoon at the Kids Carnival at the mall today...I was afraid it would be geared towards bigger kids, but these games were perfect for Braden's age!





Braden was the orange car...

He won! His first medal!

Potty Time

I've been wanting to get Braden potty trained for MONTHS...but he was fighting me for so long, and the doctor said to take a long break and maybe he was responding negatively to the pressure I was putting on him (he has to be potty trained to start preschool). But now we're home and spending a lot of time indoors with the freezing weather, so a few weeks ago I suggested "big boy undies" again, and this time it was a go! Every day we have many successes...and a few accidents...but he's very proud of himself and I'm very happy this is finally happening!
PS. Pat--Braden loves the Highlights magazines you ordered...prefect bathroom reading!

Walking

Carter's been walking for about three weeks now, and in those three weeks he's really gotten good!

Tiny Tumbler's Open Gym

After boys' haircuts and a date out to lunch w/ my boys, we went to the Green Mountain Gymnastics open gym for the first time...and hour and a half of constant fun!

Braden midair! Little daredevil..seriously, a little scary!:

Carter loved to practice somersaults!
Swinging on the rings:

Braden's School Work

Braden is proud to show off the preschool work he's doing at Christy's (and we're proud of him too)!



My new flip camera is awesome, but Braden doesn't push down on the pencil very hard... so it might be difficult to see, but he definitely gets it!

Our first Snowman!

Funny, I lived in Colorado for four years and now Vermont for two, and this is my/our first snowman! I guess I was never interested before, but with a three year old, everything is fun!
