Happy Adjusted Birthday Braeden....

2 days late....

On January 8th, Braeden was originally due. Mike noticed that is doing many of the things that a typical one year old would do at this time. It makes a whole lot of sense since it could take up to 2 years for preemies to catch up on everything.

Recently he took his very first steps. We are so so proud of him and his is so excited for himself too! He is trying to walk all the time now. He will push things around the house and then suddenly just stop...stand alone for a second...and either start clapping or plop down on the floor. He is so much fun right now and constantly making me laugh. He is so sweet too. Braeden will come up to me and give me big big hugs throughout the day. I LOVE IT!!

I shouldn't have expected anything else but a TALKER. Braeden talks talks talks all day long. We can actually get lots of words and phrases from him. Once his can get it all put together, he probably won't stop talking!!! (Just like his mommy.)

He can say....go, mom, dad, mommy, daddy, up, all done, uh oh, no-no, more, and I am sure there is more words too.

He is also using a spoon and fork when he eats. It is so cute. Braeden is eating table foods now and LOVING every bite he takes. He says "mmmmm" and "ahhh" when he is done sipping a drink. And when he is done eating...we brush our teeth and he loves to do it himself!

Can you tell that I am a proud Mama or what?
