Saturday Events

I thought I'd better throw in a picture from Easter. Grandma got each of the boys their own Easter basket filled with candy and a little gift...as you can see from the picture Bradyn got a new pair of shoes!! Grandma even hid some easter eggs around the basement and Tyler found them all with a few surprises in them!!

This has become Bradyn's new favorite thing...riding his bike on the deck. Luckily the bugs aren't out in full force yet so I can leave the slider door open for him to come in and out on his own (and leave the screen door open so he doesn't break it down!!) Dragging him inside at night is like torture and he go through about 15 minutes of a screaming/crying tantrum!!

Today in Zeeland it was "The Day of the Young Child". It was a pretty neat event and the weather was absolutly perfect! There was a firetruck, tow truck, police car & boat, school bus and some other events outside. Tyler loves monster trucks so he was pretty excited when he got to sit inside of it.

Inside of the school, the gym was filled with different booths of information and activities and crafts. Tyler made a visor and stamped/painted a gift bag. Bradyn got a balloon which made him pretty happy the rest of the day and Alex refused to even get near one. It was a great afternoon and I would definitely recommend it to anyone with young kids if they have it next year!!

Oh...I can't forget to add how excited I am that the garage sales have started. I went to a big subdivision sale in Zeeland and scored some pretty good loot!! Yeah for garage sales and the season has just begun!!!! If anyone hears about good ones make sure to let me know!

What we've been up to

Sorry for the lack of posts lately but I have been locked out of my own site for some reason and it just decided to work tonight! So anyway....here's a just a quick update on what's new around our house. We (actually my mom) have painted the living room area in my house, it's about time I got some more color on the walls!! It turned out awesome! Just like everyone else it seems, we've been battling colds over here but hopefully the germs are out of the house now. Bradyn is growing and learning new things everyday...especially the whole climbing thing. As you can see on the pictures below he climbs on just about anything, and yes he has fallen many times but just keeps at it. The newest trick happened this evening in the tub when he decided to stick his face under the water - and kept doing it over and over without getting any water up his nose!! I think we're going to have water rat on our hands which will be a little scary when we go to the lake this summer!! I've added just a few pics of my little monster!!

Aunt Amber & Bradyn

The first thing he learned to climb up on was the kitchen chair!

Last night he discovered how to get on top of his activity table and completely stand up straight - and he didn't even fall!!
