Saturday in the Park

This morning we decided to load up and head to a different park that we haven't been to before. They had a dirt pile with tons of dump trucks. A little boys heaven!! Braylen LOVED it! Here are a few pictures....

Birmingham Zoo




We love going to the Birmingham Zoo!!! Last Friday we took Braylen and Sarah and my sweet friend Kristen met us there. It was so good to get to spend some time with her since we don't get to see her that much. Braylen had a blast!! We just let him tell us where to go. He would say "This way! This way!" We looked at all the animals, rode the train then had a picnic lunch and let Braylen play in the water. He loved it! I think we might have to take him every time we visit Mimi and Gregpa.
*Sarah has now taken 5 steps at one time!!! I think she will be walking REALLY soon!!!!


On Thursday we went to a church close by that was showing the movie CARS. I haven't ever taken Braylen to a movie so I was not sure how he would do. But he loved it! Maybe it was the popcorn, juice box, Chick-fil-A nuggets, chips, cookies and crackers. Not really sure?!?!?! We stayed the whole movie and then he lost it on the way home. He didn't want to leave. We had a great time and will be trying more movies soon!

*This a picture of Braylen and one of his friends excited to see Lightening McQueen!!

What's been going on...

I know that I have been an awful blogger the past couple of months. It has been crazy around here. I have got to get some pictures downloaded to the computer and I promise I will have a better blog. I have a few updates.....
*Sarah has gotten another tooth (that makes 5)!!
*She is taking 3 steps at a time now!! I can't believe it!
*Braylen slept in his bed ALL NIGHT LONG last night!!!! This is huge because he slept with us then we got him to fall asleep in his bed, but he would always come to our room around 12 or so.
*We are working on Sarah's birthday party! I still can't believe that in less than 2 weeks she will be 1!
*I have started a new hobby! (kind of) I have made curtains for our living room and kitchen! I will put up pictures of them soon. They definitely aren't perfect but they do their job.
*I have been cleaning out EVERYTHING!!!! Closets, garage, drawers, pantry, etc. I feel so much better!

I think that is about all that is going on with us right now! We are loving this cool weather and trying to spend as much time as possible playing outside.

Braylen and Sarah's first baseball game

We decided that it might be time for Braylen to go to his very first baseball game. We went last Tuesday to watch the Nashville Sounds play ball. He was so excited before we went!! He did like it a lot at first but then didn't understand why he couldn't go out on the field and play with them. Sarah really enjoyed all the yummy food!!!!







Aunt Caroline came to visit!

Aunt Caroline came to visit last week and we did lots of exciting things. We went to jump zone on Monday and Braylen is really starting to really get good at playing on all those things. We went to the park and had a picnic. While at the park Braylen saw the baseball fields. So we just had to let him go check it out!!
Thank you Caroline for coming to visit. You were so much help and we miss you already!!! Love you!
