Christmas Tree

Brock and Braxton put up the Christmas tree last night.  Braxton did help put ornaments on the tree but also took several breaks to dance to the Christmas music (video below).

Holiday Questions

This week Braxton was asked two holiday questions at school:

1) What are you thankful for?  

Braxton said "my mommy, my daddy, and my Halloween candy"

2) What do you want for Christmas?  

Braxton said "a toy car, a boy gun, and some plastic stuff for mommy and daddy so they will have toys to play with too"

Hanging out with Grandma

Grandma spent the last 4 days with us.  Grandma made Braxton a cool new hat, we played the game Cooties together, and we played with a glove balloon.  Fun times!  

Hospital Visit

I spent 3 days in the hospital over the weekend because my liver enzymes continue to be elevated.  I'm very thankful to be home now.  I'm still pregnant (31 weeks) and doctors estimate that our baby is now 3 pounds 12 ounces.

Ultrasound Photo

We had an ultrasound today and got a new baby photo.  Here's the baby with his fist in the air and his foot next to his head.  

Halloween 2012

For Halloween this year Braxton had a weekend sleepover with Avery and Isla - highlights included painting pumpkins and attending a kids Halloween event with them (Braxton was a fireman, Avery was a beautiful princess, and Isla was an Oompa Loompa).  On Halloween night Braxton went Trick-or-Treating through our neighborhood with daddy.
