It's fun to be one!!!
Last friday November 14th Braxton turned one. we had a big party saturday for him, with family, fun and friends. This was so fun for Mike and I, we blew up a ton of balloons and decorated the whole house. Having childred defintaly brings out the kid in you. He wasn't sure what was going on but he knew it was all about him. The balloons were the best, he loved them. Even when daddy popped them he was such a big boy and didn't even cry.
We gave him his own little chocolate cake. He looked at it at first, then stuck one finger in to taste the chocolate. So we helped him along a little and stuck one of his hands in it and it was all over from there on out. He knew to make a mess and eat a little also. What a little hoot he is. When he realized everyone was watching him he really hammed it up.
Then we did presents. How fun is that. As all parents with little ones know you have to be speedy and hurry things along, so we jumped into the presents. He got some cute stuff and was very pleased with everything. Granmap and Grandpa Hanks gave him the cutest little brown rocking chair. They have a white one at there house for him and he just loves it. Now he has is own he can rock in anytime. Thanks to everyone who came and helped out with the party and for all you gifts. We appreciate all of you.
One of the gifts was a tent with balls in it. If you know Brax he loves any kind of ball. So things got a little crazy throwing balls and of course it was Mr. Mike who started it. It was a good time until one of our lamp shades got broke and Zack cut his hand. So needless to say we were done. Zack was ok and now i get to find a new lamp shade. If your going to allow that to happen you can't be upset if something gets broken and it's just materalistic. It can be replaced. It was a great 1st Birthday for Braxton.

Being mischevious
Our mischevious little Braxton loves to help mommy do the laundry a little too much. He loves to take everything out of the dryer and throw it on the floor and then he laughes, as if he knows mommy has to pick it back up. So this time I turned around and the little stinker was climbing into the dryer. Mike was in the kitchen so I yelled to him to grab the camera. So we were able to watch this little goof ball climb into the dryer and then sat down like he was suppose to me in there.

Braxton's first Halloween
This was Braxton's first Halloween and he was the cutest spider ever. Lol!! Every mom says that about their kidos. We had a great day, it started out by stopping over at Grandma Kay's house, then over to mommy's work, to show my little spider off. One more stop, off to daddy's work and to do a littlt trick or treating. we walked around the hospital gathering candy. Everyone was so suprised to see how big he was and how well he was walking. What a great Halloween!!
Halloween tradition
Our tradition is to meet downtown for Halloween and take the kids trick or treating to all the business. Sondi and Breson always come up and go with us. I have always gone to watch the kids. It's so fun to see them dressed up and get so excited. So needless to say this year was even better cause I had my own little spider to take trick or treating. Grandma Nancy's always comes to help out with the kids and be apart of the fun. This year we were lucky enough to have little Lucis and Eric (Jake my brother's kidos) come along with us. We were only missing the newest addition, Wesley (Dubs kido, my other brother) they live in Arizona. So they weren't able to be there.
We had so much fun and the kids were so excited. We went down to the machine shop after. They had a carnival. It was te first year they have done it. It was so great. I hope they do it again next year. There was a big blow-up slide and trampoline for the little kids. Braxton and Lucis had so much fun, they didn't want to get out. Tayler was a night fairy, Eric was a Denver Bronco football player, Breson and Carter were Optimus prime, Lucis was tigger and our little Braxter was a spider. What a great Halloween it was. We hope you all had a wonderful and safe one.
