Braxton's Birthday

 

Can you believe it Braxton is 6 years old!! It seems like yesterday that Andria placed him in our arms and we knew we were the luckiest parents alive. We are so grateful to her for being so amazing. We love her and her family so much!!He is such a sweet boy.
We were really excited when we found out one of our houseboat weeks was over his birthday!! The lake is his favorite place ever. Since his birthday was in the middle of the week we couldn't keep a cake cool for that long, so we improvised with a muffin and a candle. He was a good sport about it and had such a great day!! He got pancakes, bacon, and eggs for breakfast and a big ol' steak for dinner (his favorites). We had a game of baseball parents against Maycee and Braxton. They beat us 10-8. We almost won, but Grandpa started pitching for them and mom ended up striking out!! Thanks a lot Grandpa....did you really think we weren't gonna let them win? OK, maybe we wouldn't have :) He got some fly wheels and a Leapster. He was SSOOO excited. He loved the Leapster and he kept disappearing into the houseboat. He would put his pajamas on and lay on his bed to play his leapster. We love that kid so much. He is such a sweet brother with his sisters. Haylee and McKynlee say that he is their prince. I would have to agree...he is definately the prince in our family. We love you Brax!!
