Here is Brayden's camera smile.

Brayden has learned to climb out of his crib. After I put the boys to bed I will hear him climb around sometimes. After I know they are both asleep I will go back in there to make sure they are covered up. A couple of nights in a row I found Brayden had fallen asleep somewhere other than his bed. Here he fell asleep in Conner's bed with him. Doesn't look quite comfortable, does it?

Here he fell asleep in his dirty clothes basket.

Brayden is enthralled by the mirror. He loves watching himself brush his teeth.

Conner found this tree branch in the back yard and came in to tell me he had found antlers. So we had him hold them up to show them off.

Here is Lance getting Conner ready for Halloween. He wanted to be The Incredible Hulk, but we couldn't find any customes that would work, so we bought a rock man costume from the Fabulous 4 (it looked like muscles) and bought this green sweatshirt and painted his face and hair green. He looked great.

Here is Brayden the Green Dragon. He is actually getting into his candy, but it kind of looks like he's giving us a growl.

Here is Conner showing off his muscles. He decided he didn't want to wear the green sweatshirt.

Both of the boys.

This is my friend Kacy from high school. I actually went to high school with her husband also. They moved here to Utah last year, so the boys and I went down to visit them.

Savannah, Brayden, and Conner.

Kacy and her husband Doug and their daughter, Savannah.

Brayden is quite the mess maker. He has to get the food all over the place. He was very proud of this yogurt mess.

With a peanut butter sandwich.

Lance and the boys going for a ride on the 4-wheeler.

You can barely see him, but Conner is under the car with "his tools" (a little plastic set) helping Lance fix his brother's car. Both of the boys were right there the whole time helping.

Here is Brayden handing Lance a tool.

Here is Conner with his war wound. He was playing with a stick over at Grandma Kitchen's house with his new friend Joshua and fell onthe stick. We were lucky this is all that happened. It didn't go in the eye at all.

Here is Lance taking the boys for a "horsy" ride. They love this.

Here is Conner talking to Grandma Kitchen on the phone. He loves to talk on the phone. Doesn't he loos so grown up?

Brayden has become quite the poser for the camera. He loves to smile for the picture and then run to the camera to see the picture that was taken.

Brayden playing peek-a-boo with Lance. If you look at his right hand you can see the bruise from the IV from when he got his Tonsils taken out last week. He was very brave.

Here is Conner helping Grandpa make salsa. Conner is in motion to chop the peppers with the food chopper. He really did most of the chopping.

My cousins Michael, Liz, Jill and Suzanne and my Aunt Patsy at my Grandpa's 80th birthday party.

These next few pictures were taken at my Grandpa's 80th birthday party. Here is my uncle Doug and cousins Wade and Jolene (Jolene's husband).

My cousins Liz, Michael, and Katie (Michael's wife).

Here is Brian (my cousin Emily's son) and Conner taking turns teaching the lesson. It is Brian's turn right now. They kept themselves entertained for quite a while "teaching" each other. They were even the ones that set up the chairs. I had to make sure they didn't see me to get the picture. Conner is barely in the picture sitting to the left of the stuff on the table.

Brian and Conner enjoying the food.

The birthday boy.

Braden with Grandpa Kitchen.

Nadine's boys (Nathan is on a mission). From left to right: Braden, Dallin, Justin.

Here we are at Hyrum Reservoir. Lance put his glasses on Brayden. Doesn't he look good?

Here is dad on the tube with Brayden. Brayden was very brave. He didn't cry or act scared at all.

Dad is trying to stand on the tube. He actually did pretty good.
