Payton... he is getting closer and closer to the end of 1st grade. He is continuing to amaze us with his math, reading, spelling, music, etc. The last time that I have seen his "AR" (accelerated reader) tests he was testing at 2nd grade 7th month... which is awesome! He is just itching to get outside more and more and play ball with his Dad. He loves playing football, basketball, and baseball. Before we know it he will be going golfing with Gma and Gpa.
Brooks... is working hard at being "good" so he can go to preschool in the fall. We have his signed up to attend Treasure Box one morning a week. He too is wanting to go outside every waking minute and has been working hard at pedaling a bike. He does really well... especially when going down the driveway :) He has "WOW-ed" us with his knowledge of all colors, shapes, and some numbers and letters. He may act like he doesn't know or understand... but I know better... he too is a pretty smart kid.
Braxton... is continuing to do what he does best... GAIN WEIGHT! We had the chance to visit the new children's hospital in Sioux Falls a couple weeks ago for a well check since he has been home and it was amazing. It's just so home-y there. The Dr. and Nurses just loved his rolly polly arms and legs and of course his chubby baby grin. He weighed in at 22 pounds and was 28 1/2 inches. A therapist worked with him to see where he was at with fine motor and gross motor skills and he measured right where he was suppose to - 6 month old. As of last Friday he is now 7 months old and on the move. He doesn't crawl or seem to be close but if he wants to get somewhere he will by rolling or scooting. He loves just playing on the floor. He is still toothless but is loving his baby food as well as learning how to get those goofy puffs in his mouth.
The boys are anxiously awaiting the Easter Bunny... so better get their egg hunts figured out and ready. They are also excited to color easter eggs. Should be a great week.
Payton... sneaking ice cream... look at all those toppings.

Great Pictures Tif. I enjoy the updates. and Braxton has out grown my 18 month old...she isn't even 20lbs yet. Your lucky you don't have to worry about him not eating enough. He is so sweet sleeping.
He will probably out grow my 3 year old niece also... she is just over 26 pounds. Hope all is going well for you and your growing family. Can't wait for more updates. Take Care...
Love the pics! Especially the princess dress! haha! Hopefully Braxton will follow in his older brother's footsteps and be an outdoorsy smart boy!
Hey Tif, love the update. The boys are getting so big but so nice to see them growing. everyone is excited to be going outside hope it stays nice out. Have a happy Easter.
