Its that time again.

I am late again and again, this might very well be the way the rest of my life goes!! It has been a WINDY day here today, had to stay inside all day its soooo nasty and cold too. Brayden seems to have been ok with that agenda today. Daddy was off installing a kitchen, so it was just two of us for the day. Brayden continues to grow in things he can do and things he is interested in. The refrig is the latest thing he likes to open and get stuff out and put it back in. He also stands on the bottom of the frig, its cute, but not a good idea. :-) He also is enamored with the computer chair. Its a tall bar stool type chair that spins. I now keep it tucked in under the desk to limit his access. He gets up there and rearranges my papers and stuff. He also has discovered that the camera bag when put in his car trunk makes a neat seat belt of sorts. :-) The imagination of a child is wonderful and seems to grow with time.

I took his height measurement the other day just for fun, the last time was Jan 2, 2007, so from then till April 2, 2007, he has gained an inch in height. He is weighing about 28 lbs now, don't know that there is much change there, but many that pick him up comment that he is heavier. Roger notices this when he is walking around Walmart!!! I really don't pay any attention. I am trying to build upper body muscles, this is helping!!! :-)

Won't be long and it will be mosquito season, we have already killed a few here, they are pretty wimpy, but here none the less. We got our sprayer and the spray for it, and mosquito repellent clothes so we are getting ready. Hope it works good so we can enjoy our yard this summer.

Just a few pics to show his activites of late. He is getting to be quite acrobatic, don't know that its a good thing, but he isn't afraid of very much!!

I went back today and read my diary from the second trip. Was good to be reminded of all the happenings of that trip, how it went and then see the changes in our little boy since then. I am very glad that I took that notebook and used it, its great reading now! Mostly its good for Roger and I, brings things back to our memories that we have forgotten in a measure. It also makes us so very grateful that we are in a wonderful country with freedoms others don't know, and we have the awesome privalege of raising this little boy. We hope to do the very best job possible recognizing that the challenges will get us down some days and other days will be a piece of cake!! Here's to more cake days than hard ones!!
