Easter!

We had a simple but good Easter this year. We had a nice church service and then just chilled here at home together as a family. The weather was nice and breezy, so Braxton and I spent alot of time outside. Justin hid some eggs for him in the backyard and we had a little Easter egg hunt. B-rax loved it! He is a great egg-finder, and even after we told him that he found them all, he kept walking around the yard looking for more. We had a roast for dinner and just enjoyed being together.

He is off!

Where are they?

He found some!



B-rax is such a big boy. He suprises me every day with how much he understands and how smart he is. He still isn't saying too many actual words, but just recently his noises have started to sound more like words. He says "more" and "drink" and "ball" really well, and he has his certain sounds for "fishies" (gold fish crackers) and "shoes" that sounds alot like the actual words. He loves reading books and can point to pretty much any animal or object I say in his books.
He is the best little helper, too! He loves vacuuming with mom and always pulls his little toy one out to help me when I vacuum. He loves sweeping, and makes messes purposefully sometimes just to be able to use the broom to sweep it up! Any trash bag I set out he immediately picks up and drags it to the bin on the side of the house. My favorite so far was just the other day when he found a plastic grocery bag and took it out back. I looked outside a few minutes later to find him picking up doggie poop WITH HIS BARE HANDS and putting it in the bag to throw away! It was gross, but cute. I couldn't help but laugh. He is such a sweetie.
