Our Big B is THREE!!!!

Kate's new teeth

Kate has been very excited that her two new teeth have been coming in. She has also been trying to convince several other teeth that they are ready to come out, but so far they're hanging on!

Fun with friends at the Zoo

Braden's 1st trip to Build a Bear

Braden had his first Build A Bear experience with Grandma Carol today. (Grandma took Kate for the first time at the same age right after Braden was born!). He immediately picked out his black bear and of course the Spider Man outfit (with boots to match his). He creatively named his bear B's Bear :-)!

Super Braden!

Braden had a school project where we had to "dress" a cardboard person like himself and then one day at school last week they decorated the faces. He is very proud of Super Braden (or Super B)!!

Braden's first UT game!!

Braden loved his first UT game! Daddy was very excited (that meant he got to stay for most of it). He ate a whole box of popcorn and had fun looking for the "two Smokey dogs".

1st pics in Neyland Stadium

I'm wondering if Kate practiced this photo shoot with Braden..........

Sept. 13, 2008-- Braden's first game
Sept. 2, 2006--Kate's first game...she wasn't crazy about the fireworks!

Gymnastics

Braden has started taking gymnastics on Monday while Kate has her class. He loves trying out all the things he has been watching Kate do for years!

1st Soccer Game of the Season!

Warming up before the game
Ready for kick off!
Playing hard Kate had her first soccer game with her new team "The Pink Unicorns" on Saturday. All the girls did a great job. Kate played really well and was excited that she was able to score a few goals. We're so proud of her!!

Sweet moment....

Every morning after Braden and I drop Kate off at school we have the following conversation....

Braden - "Mommy, where Kate go?" (knowing we just dropped her off at school)
Me - "She went to school Braden"
Braden - "Well, me miss her." (even though she's been gone less than 10 seconds)

and then throughout the day.....

Braden - "Mommy, where going? Going to get Kate?"
