Brotherly Love

When we found out Owen was a boy, we couldn't wait until Brayden got out of school to tell him. He couldn't stop smiling when he found out!! Brayden was so excited to have a brother to teach how to play trains and build legos. I think having two sisters was making him tired of playing house and dealing with our resident princesses. I knew he would make a great big brother, but seeing my two boys together warms my heart. I love being a mom, and each day brings new challenges but also new surprises. As my family has grown in size, it has been so fun to see the kids interact. Sibling rivalry at it's finest!

Brayden is a great big brother!
And I can see that he's taken this responsibility seriously, and he watches over Owen closely. One thing I will always remember is the day when I was holding my newly born Owen and I noticed a bulge in the pocket of his little outfit. I reached in and pulled out a small lego ship that I knew his big brother had built for him!

That picture of Brayden licking Owen is so funny looking. Your kids look like tonz of fun and full of personality. It looks like Brayden likes to change diapers too, he can come change my babies anytime.

Oh, I got a little teary. I would like to have one more little boy, but Shawn thinks the space is too big now. I'll definitely show him this!
