Daddy's Day Weekend

It was a nice sunny weekend here, and we got to see almost our whole entire family in two days!

First, I played in the tiny pool with Daddy on Saturday morning. He's usually at work when I play in it, so it was fun to have him there.


Then Saturday we went to dinner at Uncle Jody and Auntie Skye's house, and all the rest of Mommy's side of the family was there too. We're kind of a big crowd. This is Mommy, Papa Beagle, Daddy and me, Uncle Ryan, Auntie Joy, Grammy, Auntie Julia, Uncle Jody, Auntie Skye, Auntie Rachel, and Mr. Patrick.


After dinner, the boys went to watch TV and the girls were in the kitchen talking.


Grammy had some ice cream and cake, and she gave me a little bit. I decided I would taste a little, and it was pretty good. All the girls were doing "Yay Braska" and clapping for me when I took bites, so I took some more.


I think this is a funny one. Mommy and Grammy are making faces like mine. They're silly.


Here's a little movie of me tasting some more.


On Sunday, we went to Grandpa J's church and then went to Miss Cindy's house after so we could play in the pool and stuff. She has a pretty neat place!!


We were the first ones there, so we took some pictures before we got ready to swim. Miss Cindy has a neat place where some water falls down over some great big rocks, so Daddy showed it to me and told me all about it.






Then I sat all the way on top of the rocks by myself!


Then we sat by the pool and I stuck my toes in the water.



When Grandma got there, I told her all about it.


I got to ride in my float and on the big people float too.


It was pretty fun to be in the pool while Daddy, Grandpa, and the uncles were playing silly games.


After we got out of the pool, the boys played some games and Grandma, Mommy, and me went to the movie room in Miss Cindy's house to watch a movie. I played with Grandma most of the time so I didn't watch too much of the movie. When we got home, it was bedtime, but that's ok. It was a good day!

  1. Braska-Sure does look like you had a great weekend. I am so glad you have family near by now that you can play with. I wish I was friends with Miss Cindy, too. I really liked the pictures of you and your daddy. What a handsome crew.

  7. Hi Braska, you don't know me but I'm the one who noticed you weren't on the "my special K's" blogroll, my little sister who's now 23 has an extra chromosome just like you. I just clicked on your blog from the my special K's blogroll randomly one day and have been a loyal reader ever since LOL you're just so darn cute I love seeing your stories and pictures.

Mommy report: Chatty girl

Braska's been just loving her words lately. She's still signing some, mostly when we're in public or around strangers, but she's adding more words all the time. Many of her words are just attempts at the actual word, but that's where we all start, right?!? We're not saying that she'll be giving speeches next month, but we are very proud that she's become such a mimic and that she is loving using so many sounds. We practice often, just running through her words, signs, and tricks. She especially loves to chime in with videos of herself, so I've been working on compiling all her favorites for her to work with. As I was editing this, she was sitting here saying the words over and over. So funny to hear her talking to herself on the screen and loving it. So here's a peek at some clips from our practice session tonight. Some words are more obvious than others. They are all great attempts, though, and we'll celebrate that! Make an on-line

Nebraska meets Indiana

Braska's reaction to meeting the very kind Rory Feek and his beautiful daughter Indy.  I missed the part where Braska said Indy was sooooooooooo cute!  :) Our dream would be a photo showing the two most beautiful "states" together, right?!?  :)
