The Braydn Update

So I figure I would let you know how Braydn is doing because every time I post He has changed. We will start will the worst story I think. This morning as I was posting the Easter info, he came running at me pretty much at his full speed(which is pretty quick I must say) and he ran straight into my computer desk face first. It was a hard hit so I picked him up and realized he had a mouth full of blood. I took him in the the bathroom to find out that he had seriously bitten his tongue close to all the way through. Needless to say he has had a rough day. If it was a cut anywhere other then his tongue, it would probably need stitches, but they can't stitch a tongue. So instead he gets a lot of comfort and back to the soupy baby foods. It has also been a struggle getting him to drink since if he sucks on his sippy cup, the cut breaks open and he has a mouth full of blood again. Well, at least tongues heal quickly(I sure hope!!).

On more positive news... Braydn will turn 1 year old in 3 weeks. Where does time fly to? We are going to put something together for him although I not sure what yet. He now has 7 teeth that were a serious help in the above injury. He says the normal "mama" and "dada", but he also learned a new word. Tickle. He said it constantly for like a week and now he won't do it very often anymore, but we still consider it his 1st real word. He learned something else in the last week or so that makes me very happy. He will throw his dirty diapers away. After we change him, we hand him the diaper and tell him to throw it away and he walks into the bathroom and puts it in the garbage. YES!! It works!! The next thing we will work on is putting his toys away... Same kind of concept. Anyway that is about all for now.

My happy Boy


I walk in his room one day and had done this, but his drawers apart and threw clothes everywhere.


Ike put together the timeout chair since it will be needed soon. Braydn was learning the tricks of the trade and decided he deserved credit for all of Dad's hard work.


This is what happens when we pack at our house. Braydn wants to make sure that he is coming with us.
