All smiles

brayden is smiling alot recently and smiles best when we tell him what a handsome boy he is!

Gingerbread house

Bryce and dad made a gingerbread house together this year. Bryce was glad to eat the frosting off of the mixer and was excited to find all the candy to put on the house.

Shopping

Bryce was pretending to go grocery shopping and I heard him say, "thank you for shopping at Giant, you come back later!"

More of bryce

Bryce loves Kung Fu Panda these days and will sing, "Kung Fu Panda, legends of awesomeness, sweet!" many times throughout the course of the day. He actually wanted to sing it for the camera today so I took the opportunity while I had the chance. Since he was so willing to perform for the camera I decided to add another slogan he came up and announced to me the other day while feeding Brayden..."lowes, lets build something together." I wonder what slogan he will come out with next?!

smiling and cooing

Bryaden is smiling and cooing more every day. We love talking to him and watching him study you with his bright blue eyes. He's such a happy baby:)

Brayden is 2 months

Brayden had his 2 month checkup at the doctors today. He is 24 1/4 inches tall and 13 lb 1 0z...very healthy and happy!

Bryce knows his slogans

While eating dinner one night with Papa Putzke Bryce grabbed a subway napkin and said, "subway, eat fresh!" a few weeks later Bryce asked dad if he wanted to go to olive garden...dad asked him why and he said, "when you're there, you're family!"

Picture time

Bryce is never very thrilled when we want to take a picture from him and usually tries to avoid getting his picture taken. I was taking pictures of Brayden this morning and Bryce decided to sneak into the picture and get in on the fun!

Football

Bryce loves playing football...he told us, "football is my favorite!"

Sleeping

Bryaden is a very happy baby just like Bryce was. He is now sleeping 10 hours at night and staying awake more during the day to watch Bryce play...that makes Bryce pretty happy!

Tummy time

Cookie pizzas

bryce found this recipe for cookie pizzas and wanted to test them out. he helped me mix up the cookies and bake them. When the cookies were in the oven he sat down in front of the oven and said, "okay, I will watch them for 10 minutes!" When it was time to frost and decorate he did a great job. His pizzas were topped with raisins, coconut, peanut butter chips, and sprinkles. He really enjoyed his pizza when all the hard work was done!

Christmas lights

We got the boys ready to take a walk to see all the Christmas lights around our neighborhood. Bryce was very excited

Christmas

Just like dad

Bryce got this cars 2 guitar from Uncle Scott and Aunt Beth for his bday. he loved being able to play just like dad.

smiles

Brayden is smiling more often these days. I found Bryce one morning standing over Brayden saying, "smile Brayden, smile for Bryce!" bryce said he wants Brayden to smile all the time :)

Decorating the tree

Bryce had fun helping us decorate the Christmas tree this year. he was very excited to see we had cookie cutter ornaments to hang...some being trains and gingerbread men! I found Bryce one day sitting by the tree looking at the presents. He touched one and said..."Is that for me?" I said yes and he said okay and started to open it. I stopped him and explained that we had to wait 25 days for Christmas. He said okay and then told me " I think you want to get a drink of water in the kitchen mom" I told him that's smart thinking until mom would come and find the open present.

Reading to Brayden

Bryce loves reading to Brayden. Today he decided to read his animal sounds book to Brayden...he was somewhat interested and maybe somewhat frightened when Bryce made all the animal sounds with enthusiasm :)

growing, growing!

Brayden is nearing 2 months old and is growing quick. He is getting very tall and has outgrown his 3 month clothing already!

Bryce's tree

Bryce got this tree from Nana Ensign 2 years ago and loves to have it in his room. He carefully put ornaments on it and now enjoys having it in his room.
