Random Pictures

Here are some more random pictures off my Cell Phone,
I need to get better at carrying my regular camera!
Jayden absolutely loves the Slip'n'Slide!
Brady loves being outside!
So, we are working on, "Using Our Words" with Jayden. I had Brady sitting in the activity chair below (the one Jayden is in), and Jayden was getting frustrated. He started "crying" his fake fuss and I knew he wanted to use that specific seat. I told him to "Stop crying and use your words." He stopped fussing right away, turned to me and said, "I dump Brady out, Okay Mama?" LOL! I was happy he used his words, but not exactly what I had in mind. I had to stop and laugh though. He keeps me on my toes. That's for sure!
He is a GREAT big brother!
When we are in Brady's room playing, Jayden takes out Brady's toys and brings them over to "show" Brady how they work. He also says, "Thanks for sharing Bray-ee!" I love having two boys! They are going to be the best of buds.
For now...Mickey is Jayden's best bud!
When it's too hot outside,
bring the fun inside, right?
Our "little" guy now weighs 20 pounds!
Yep...20 pounds! =)
He loves tummy time and checking out
the different colors...
He's developing his own little personality. He's very cuddling and loves to be held. That might be an understatement! Since he was carried upright the first 3 months of his life, he feels the need for it to be that way ALL the time. Can you say spoiled? I love it though. They're only little once and the time goes by so quickly.
Football season is on it's way! Jamie's Godparents sent these outfits to the boys. Thank you Dave and Joan! (and to Gma and Gpa for the hat!)
Proud Dada!
The next morning, Jayden woke up and told me he needed his "Daddy shirt." It took me a while, but he was talking about his Viking's jersey. He wore it over his pajamas all morning!
This is just for laughs. I was cleaning out our Halloween Costumes and found this one my sister gave me. It obviously is WAY too small for Jayden, but he was so excited to be a "LION" that he wanted to wear it.
Look at the feet...they go up to his knees!
SO MUCH FUN!
I love my boys!

Those boys are soooo adorable! And we love J's comment when he used his words (blatantly honest, huh?) Lots of work with the little ones when they are young, but they will be such good buddies growing up. thanks for the fun post and pics!
