Kisses in the mirror

Kisses - Reece loved looking at himself in the mirror that is in this book. Not only was he checking himself out but he was also giving himself kisses. Too cute!

Mommy caught you Reece! xxx ooo

Homer

All Grown Up - We pulled out Homer the other day for Reece to use and he absolutely loved it. Homer was a gift to Braden from Santa on his 1st Christmas (2007). Braden, of course, saw Reece get on so wanted a turn. It about broke my heart to see my once little Braden too big to fit on Homer. Where does the time go? I better not blink because I'm sure that Reece is right behind him!









Buddies

GG and Reece - these two are quite the posers! All smiles for these photos!

Learning to Read

Books - Reece is enjoying a book that he received from his cousin Sofie in Germany. We love to read and Reece enjoys the pictures. Braden even joined in the fun. Thanks Sofie...we think of you every time we read it!

Washing Dishes - One night while I was getting Reece ready for bed, Braden decided to "wash dishes" using all of the extra soaps, tooth brushes, shampoo and other toiletries for guests. At least he is neat....right?
