Daddy's home for R&R!


Daddy arrives at the Killeen airport.  We were so excited and Adam couldn't stop smiling after Braedon!
Putting Brae on ski's.  He loved going down the hill, but not much else.  
Here Daddy is putting Brae's house together.

Bye Daddy, I'm sad to see you go!!!!  :o(

     We were so excited for Adam to come home for R&R.  We had a ski trip planned and then just some hanging out around the house family time.  Braedon had fun running around the airport waiting for "daddy's plane" and went up and hugged Adam when he finally came out.
     The very next day after Adam came in we were off and driving to Colorado for our ski trip.  We stayed out somewhere in west Texas the first night, and then in Colorado Springs the second.  I was so excited to see Sarah and Eve during our stop in Colorado.  Braedon and Eve ran after each other and it was totally cute!  
     The next day we made it to Copper Mountain.  We explored the first day and Adam and I skied the next day.  I was pretty nervous because it had been over 2 years since the last time, but I eventually calmed down.  Adam and I had a blast and Braedon truly had a lot of fun in the childcare.  We tried putting Braedon on ski's, but Adam and I think it he was a smidge too young.  He enjoyed skiing down with Adam, but he hated wearing the boots and having the skis on and just standing there.  Needless to say it was a very short day of skiing.  Adam and I skied one more day and headed out.  We definitely enjoyed our ski trip and can't wait to go back to Copper Mountain!
     When we were back in Texas Adam put together Brae's birthday present from Mimi and Poppy.  Brae was climbing through it the whole time and loves playing in his house.  :o)  
     The morning that Adam left was pretty hard.  Brae looked so cute in his Daddy's hat.  Now it's just a few more months until we see him again.  Let's get this summer started!

 

Brae's 2nd Birthday

Okay so I wrote a brief paragraph before I tried to let me say, for the second time, put pictures in this blog.  For some reason the pictures kept wanting to go before my writing, why?  Sarah, you need to help me figure all this out the next time we're together because it drives me crazy.  It certainly isn't user friendly if you ask me.  Anyway, here are some pictures of around Brae's Birthday.  Aunt Char came into town for a few days, we went to the Waco zoo, and just hung out.  On his birthday, Brae had a pretty high fever.  We still had some neighbors over for pizza and cake, but Brae didn't want any.  I know he wasn't feeling very well, but he still seemed to have a fun day!

Looking at a card and about to blow out his candles.  He's very good at blowing them out by the way.  He doesn't need any help!  
Opening up some presents the neighbors gave him.
Winding down from a long Birthday.

He was all tuckered out.  I got this because he looked so darn cute.  I love how he's started putting his hands behind his head when he's sleeping.  Cutie pie!  

Adam and I can't believe it's been two years already.  Time sure flies and we look forward to many more memories with this little stinker.  One of these days we'll have to add another to our mix.  :o)
