Easter 2009

We had a great Easter this year. It was a bit bittersweet since it was Bryson's last "first" holiday. The easterbunny came to visit and the kids were very excited. We had a great morning at church. The easter egg hunt was moved indoors because of the weather, but I think it was better that way for Bryson. We feel so blessed with these two boys and are so thankful the Lord decided to share them with us.

Spring Soccer

This is Brayden's first year to play soccer. He has caught on so well and we are so proud of him. There have been some issues with the soccer program this year, which has us questioning whether or not he will play again next season. At this age though, the most important thing is that the kiddos are having fun.......I believe they are. It was soooo cold out one night, so Papa and Bry-Bry enjoyed the game from the car. I bet neither could tell you the score of that game.......Bryson was far too busy trying to drive...lol.

I love my brother!

There is no denying it, these boys love each other! The last picture is one Brayden took himself of his brother laughing at him. I think its one of the best one's we have of Bryson.

Valentine's Day Festivities

We had such a great Valentine's Day this year!! Hope everyone had a great one too!

"Daddy & Me" Night out

The other night Jimmy and Brayden participated in a Parents as Teachers event called "Daddy & Me". Parents as Teachers is a wonderful program for babies through preschool age children that gets the parents involved with activities to promote their overall development. We highly recommend it to all. This particular activity involved the kids and their Dads for a night full of games, sports, and crafts. Jimmy and Brayden had a great time!

I can eat Puffs Now!!

The other day I decided I would let Bryson try some of the "Puffs" for older babies. He only has two teeth, so I wasn't quite sure how he would do with them. I expected to have to put one in his mouth, then dig it out as fast as I could because he was choking on it. To my surprise......he picked it up himself with this finger and thumb, put it in his mouth, chewed and swallowed without hesitation. It was a bittersweet moment for me. I was so very proud of my big boy for his great fine motor skills and the fact that he knew to chew this new food. However, part of me wanted to rip the puff from his hand and demand he stay my sweet little baby forever. This growing up thing is happening far to fast for me. Look out world..........another Keirsey boy is on his way!!

Company Dinner Party

This past Sunday, Jimmy's company treated the store employees and their spouses to a dinner at Logan's. They had beat the store record for most volume in a single day. We are so proud of you Jimmy for all your hard work! The boys had a great time, too. Brayden loves to eat at places where they allow you to throw things on the floor......imagine that. I even let Bryson sit in the highchair instead of his carseat for the first time. I know he's been quite capable for awhile, but I refuse to let him grow up any fast than I have to. Dinner was so yummy. They had the best fried shrimp I have ever had........ever. I know what I'll be eating for Valentine's Day......lol.
