Halloween, Ethan's Birthday and Brayden's Birthday

Yes, I'm a little behind on the times. And I'm trying to catch up before tomorrow. Hopefully I'll get to that before the baby comes :) Anyway, our fall and winter are crazy busy with all the holidays, birthdays and parties we go to. Halloween this year was so much fun. Ethan was really into going to every house and saying Trick or Treat and thank you. Brayden was more content with the first candy he got (sucker) and sticking with that. Abi was here for Halloween so they were able to go together. It was such a fun night!

Ethan's birthday happened to fall on one of the days that I was gone on my sibling vacation in Mexico so we celebrated when I got home. He begged for a VERY long time to go bowling for his birthday so we did. He was really good and beat me! He had so much fun and Brayden had so much fun just cheering everyone on. He tried a bowl or two but wasn't too into it. Then we came home and opened presents and did cake and ice cream. It was so nice to be with my little family and celebrate my handsome boy's birthday! I can't believe he is 4 already. He is so incredibly smart and sensitive. He is always concerned about my feelings and how I'm doing physically, especially being pregnant. He will randomly tell me he loves me so much, melts my heart. I just love this kid so much!

Brayden's birthday was a fun day too. We celebrated on the 21st due to Christmas stuff going on and it was just easier. We had cake and ice cream with both grandparents and Tara and Taylor. It was so fun. He got spoiled rotten and loved every minute! Thank you everyone for coming and for the gifts! On his actual birthday, we took the boys to see Rise Of The Guardians, which they loved! They both couldn't take their eyes off the screen. That was the first movie we have taken Brayden to and he loved it! SO fun. We sure love this little bug. He adds so much personality and joy to our family. He is always so happy and fun loving. He does NOT like getting into trouble, takes it so hard! He hates seeing anyone sad and wants to make you feel better if you are. He is a super cheese ball and wants his picture taken all the time. He is learning new words everyday and surprises me with how smart he is. We love you so much, Bray!
