Three and a Half

That line that every parent is told about kids growing up too fast is so true. Lately, Braden has been telling everyone that he's 3 and a half years old. When I correct him and remind him he's only 2 and a half, he says, "No, I want to be 3 and a half instead." He is focused on getting strong too. Every time he eats anything now, he flaunts his muscles to display how buff he's getting. We often remind him that if he eats, he will grow big and strong. This ploy is working for now!

Papa treated Braden to a calorie-laden "snowball" which surely helped with Braden's quest to get big and strong. This pink, coconut, marshmallow-filled, chocolate cake must have had Red Bull in it too. Bonkers is the only word to describe how he acted the whole day.
Braden was grunting and flexing his muscles to anyone who would watch. These girls really showed no interest, but that didn't stop Braden from showing off.
He knows Mommy will always give him the attention he's looking for....even with remnants of chocolate on his face and belly.
In between being extremely silly, Braden managed to pull off the whole "being cute" thing pretty well.
