So last Sunday we celebrated my nephew, Braden's fourth birthday. He is soo dang cute, but it breaks my heart how big he's gotten. He's really into Spiderman, and cars right now...so one of the presents he got from my little sister was a Spiderman thing that goes on his wrist, and he "slings" little red chips at bad guys.
Paeton and Braden spent a lot of time playing with it. Then Braden got the bright idea to try and shoot my dogs, but I put a stop to that REAL quick.
For his birthday lunch, we had corndogs and soda at his request. I wasn't pleased with that, but hey, it wasn't my birthday.
He also got a couple presents from Bevan and I, and then from Grandma April.
Grandma Aprils present ( Ahem-which I picked out) was ALL THE RAGE. Seriously. Both Paeton and Braden really liked it. It was this Disney floor book that has all these learning puzzles and games in it. It also has games where he can practice writting his letters, and numbers. The cool thing about it though is that its like a dry erase board, so he can erase everything and do it all over again.
They are both soo dang cute. They were both sitting on the floor writing in the book, and Braden turned the page because he wanted to draw on the Cars page- but Paeton, who is a very strong willed little girl- started being bossy and telling him to turn it back. After a mintute- Bradens response was " Ok Paeton. Me turn it back just for you. Whatevah."
I just started laughing because he can't pronounce his "R's", and he was acting really exasperated by Paeton being bossy. But he's the most giving and caring little boy you will ever meet. I think he's had a rough time with his dad not being in his life, and his mom not really being around-but I just hope he keeps his personality as he gets older. He really is the best little boy a person could ask for.
