There is a whole lot of messy, dirty reality that doesn't often show up on the blog. So--here is some crazy reality!
1. Braxton was holding a water bottle while balancing on top of his toy cart. When he fell, he was very startled by the cold water pouring on him and his clothes got soaked....it was a cold, hard lesson.
2. This next photo happened when Brock and I took Braxton to the beach last month. We were swimming and smelled a horrible stench. Brock said, "geez, this beach smells terrible" and a few minutes later we realized that it was our kid's dirty diaper that smelled so nasty. Brock changed the diaper (Brock is really helpful with that!) and let him run free since no one else was around. Is our kid really naked at the beach AND peeing directly in the lake!!!???

3. Simple moments. Braxton learned to balance things on his head this week. Cute, eh?
4. Braxton normally loves to practice counting and saying abc's. He loves to say the numbers 13 and 14. His counting usually goes 1,2,3,4,5,8,9,10,13,14,15,16. However, on this particular day he had been counting really well and I ran to get the camera. Once I had the camera ready he was acting crazy and missing the numbers he normally says perfectly....and as we counted when we got to the number 13 he just started saying "pee-pee" over and over. Um, that's was not a good...nor was it good that I laughed out loud when he did it.
I love that you DO share the crazy reality. Since we don't get to see you all as much as we like, the "regular" days are neat to see. Won't he just be mortified when he is 15-17 about the "yellowing of the lake" picture. He,he, he! Gma Debbie
ReplyDeleteI've been waiting for a new post to get my Braxton Fix!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the pic with the cup on his head. Priceless. And you know, it's good you showed how things really are.....and they're not perfect all the time. It makes the perfect time more precious. I can't wait for your visit! But I cannot guarantee I won't laugh at "pee pee." :)
