My baby boy turns 4...

There is just something about a momma and her boy...such a special relationship and I love my boy to death. It doesn't seem like it has been 4 years since he was born!  

Brayden at about 2 weeks old

Brayden-3rd birthday


Brayden today-turning FOUR!


Brayden at FOUR you....
  • nap just several times a week, not everyday anymore
  • love riding your bike, fishing with daddy, playing with leggos and your train set, playing ANY sport especially baseball, basketball and soccer, making tents with sissy, reading books, playing with anybody else's toys (it's greener on the other side right?), 
  • you love to eat cereal, popsicles, grilled cheese and tomato soup, chicken, spaghetti-o's, macaroni and cheese, lots of veggies including  turnip greens, green beans, lima beans, corn on the cob, grape tomatoes, sweet potatoes, lots of fruits including bananas, strawberries, blueberries, apples, oranges, cantaloupe, watermelon, pineapple, and of course you love candy (I mean what kid doesn't?).
  • you keep us on our toes and will test every limit; still get spankings/time out when needed (some days more often than others)
  • you have a fun little personality....you are very funny at times and put on a grand show but at times you can be shy too (it has to be on your terms).
  • at this point the foods you are allergic to are eggs and nuts (you now can eat strawberries and white potatoes that you were allergic to at age 2), you are still highly allergic to dogs and grass and trees
  • you love swimming (with floaties you can go all over the pool)...maybe next year when you are a little taller we will take those floaties off)
  • when you wake up in the mornings, you have a routine of getting in dad's chair and covering up, and then you want to watch cartoons and you want your coffee (oh yes every day asks for it and usually begs for a second cup, although you don't get it!).
  • you weigh approximately 28-30 lbs.
  • not really interested in learning to write your letters and numbers like your sister....would much rather be playing
  • can be very loving and sweet...often you will come up to me and say, "I love you mom." or  "You're the best mom in the world!"
  • you love to go to Dollar Tree and pick out a toy (you ask every time we go somewhere)
  • you are very loved and one of the lights of my life
  • you will always be my sweet baby boy no matter how old you get!
  • you bring so much joy to our lives!

Brayden we love you and look forward to celebrating many more years with you!  You are such a blessing and a gift from the Lord!  Happy 4th Birthday Brayden!

  1. Ok, Brayden looks EXACTLY the same at one year as he does today! That is funny. Abby doesn't really even look the same! ha! Can't believe our little ones are turning 4. That sounds way too grown up.
