Braden Update

Braden turned 2 1/2 on the 6th! He's really growing into a very independent boy!  He's added only a few new words to his vocabulary, but going from not saying anything we're proud!!  No he says very clear now, Mom & Dad too.  He'll say me, ball, & is learning to mimick animal noises more now.  His speech pathologist doesn't have any real concerns for his progress; she assures this is highly common for boys & espeically the 2nd child.  He's essentially potty trained with #2 totally trained & his 15 minute reminders for going #1! His favorite toys are still trucks & trains & he likes to make the choo-choo sound now when he's pushing the train. He loves to play games & watch videos on the computer.   Elmo is still his favorite Sesame Street character, but The Cat in the Hat is in close 2nd!

We took the boys costume shopping to let them pick this year.  Braden picked a baby costume that really didn't fit (12-18 months), so after calling to the store's other locations to find this was the only one & Phil & I not wanting to deal with an all out fit, bought it.  He still looked cute but it kept coming unbuttoned; oh well, he didn't notice the difference.
Elmo!!
Braden loves animals, but dogs are by far his favorite!  He's always showing love to Bozlee & Hannah & will grab their leash to walk them around the house.

Braden came up with the idea to wear his Elmo slippers with the outfit.
