Happy Easter!

Sorry for all those who don't like long posts, I seem to be very good at doing that. But this one is huge! After all it is a holiday though.

COLORING EGGS!

When we sat down to the table Brax automatically folded his arms thinking that we needed to pray.

Showing him how to dip the egg...

Trying it by himself

I was terrified he was going to tip the cup over, but he didn't!

Silly Daddy with brax and their first egg.

Drawing on the egg with a crayon before coloring

Putting the egg in the color...

And "WOW!" He was so proud of his egg.

Then he realized his fingers were blue... and couldn't quite figure it out.

And of course, what would life be like if Dad didn't tease him at least once.

this time it was stickers on Brax's face.

Coloring an egg with mom

Braxton's easter basket

His first time seeing the basket, he ran right past it the first time and we had to show him.

A cute smile with his new sword or little did he know Bubble sword!

And the scary evil smile!

emptying all his eggs from his basket

reading his new book

Bubbles!

Oh yeah baby, it's bubble time!

Once we showing him that his sword made bubbles we were doomed, that was all he wanted do after that. We had to hide it and take the screaming just to get him to take a nap.

He's gonna get it!

Whoo Hooo! I love this picture!

Oh sweet little Cooper, He was so scared of the bubbles.

And Lucky Loved the bubbles!

HaHa! He looks like a little fairy or something silly.

He was getting ready to take off running for the bubbles...

and he ate it!

he was fine, he jumped right back up and kept on chasing those bubbles.

Munching on a gummy shark

Pennies! Braxton's Favorite! He will carry a penny in his pocket all day long. You wouldn't believe how much money I find in the washer after doing his laundry.

Coloring with his new chalk! He loved it and every time he would finish a line or "picture" he would stand up and say "TADA"

EASTER EGG HUNT

LET THE HUNT BEGIN!

He couldn't see anymore eggs and started to get a little disappointed that it was over.

Jaden shouted out " Mom, Braxton and I are winning!"

And then he saw another piece of candy!

When they were all found, he sat down and emptied all his eggs to see what he had got

and little Zoe kept trying to steal it, and he kept slapping her hands away and yelling "no, no, no"

Finally they sat down together once Zoe's mouth was full and ate some candy.

These are our next door neighbors "The Cullens" ( and no they're not vampires, for those obsessed twilight fans. haha) This is the mother Jodi and her daughter Skieler.

and the Grandma (Donna) is in the pink and black, She refused to have her picture taken so I sneakily got one with out her knowing. This is the second time we have invited them over for dinner and they refused again, so I asked why. They told me that they had never been invited to anything anywhere ever! and they even have family an hour away! That's so sad! I almost started crying, then I told them that that was the reason that they needed to come. Donna's response was that they wouldn't know what to do? I was like well, you come, eat and have some fun. Well they stayed for dinner and a little talking then they went home. But Skieler stayed and I did a special easter egg hunt for her with money and some of my old but still nice jewelry that I never where anymore.

He was going so high I was afraid he was going to topple out head first, he was actually kicking the fence and pushing himself.

His first time on the teeter totter with a little friend...

and this also was his very first time ever riding this swing with someone other than his mom, I think he like it a lot more.

OUCH! Head Bonk!

They both leaned back at the same time and knocked heads together

Making sure his friend was okay...
Then he had to rub his head again

Skieler also babysits Braxton from time to time and he adores her! She will pop up over the fence to say hi to him almost every afternoon and he crys every time she gets down or has to leave our house. He loves to play with her and his friend Jaden

Emptying the camera, so this is a long one.

To Start off this post, we have now had our sweet little cooper for 1 month exactly today! We are so happy we got him and Lucky could learn a few things from him, like not barking and he can and will learn a few things from lucky, like go to bed when told and not to beg and snatch food from your hands. And the best thing of all is that neither of them potty in the HOUSE!! I think that we have two of the best dogs!

PILLOW FIGHT!

Braxton loves to have pillow fights with dad! I video taped them and then took some pics from the videos, so here they are. I love it, there so funny. Even if Brandon misses him, Brax will throw himself on the ground/bed and scream. haha

Brax has such a serious face in this one

Bam! In the Face!

Yay! He got Dad!

In the Face again! Brax thought this one was funny.

Rocket Power!

Daddy built a launch tower for Braxton's race track launcher and put some extra rubber bands in it so it was more powerful. then continued to shoot cars, legos, etc. from the launcher.

More water fun, he was jumping over the sprinkler once I got some pants on him he stopped jumping as much and I couldn't get a picture of him in the air like I did when well... you'll see.

He learned to step on the sprinkler and spray the water higher and it spray him right in the face!

Good thing he thought it was funny

I was putting some candy in a few eggs then letting him open them to show him that he will get candy if he gets eggs.

Spring Homemade Oreos! They were so yummy

I seriously found him like this... luckily the camera was right next to me

I turned my back for 2 seconds while we were making cookies, and he did this with the chocolate chips. Don't ya just love the smug little smirk on his face.

Having fun with mom building and destroying lego castles

Brax and I built a chair with all his legos...

but He liked it better as a garage for his monster truck.

I walked in and found him hiding in the tote, when I found him he jumped up and yelled ROAR!

of course i acted surprised and screamed a little then grabbed him and had some tickle time.

We took Braxton to "How to train your Dragon" in the theater this past Monday for FHE, he loved it and so did Brandon and I. it will be one that we buy. Brax was Roaring and yelling at the Dragons, giggling, etc. I was really hoping he would take a short nap on the way there, as you can see he was very very tired.

On the way out of the Theater Brax saw all the games and really really wanted to play on them so we let him for a few minutes. I should of payed more attention when we were walking by them and averted his attention elsewhere. It was a screaming fight to get him to leave, he was so exhausted.

Silly Cooper, I find him asleep in the strangest places. If you can't tell, his body is on the chair and his head is on the table.

For some odd reason he likes to sit and lay on this small hard glass table,

when Lucky is smart enough to lay on the pillow.
