Short Pants - Birth to Present continued... (year three as of now)

The third and final edition of Short Pants' Birth to Present is here! Since he turned two he has accomplished so much, from knowing his letters/numbers/colors to, becoming a BIG brother, and conquering potty training! This year is so far a spectacular year of achievement for my boy. Here are the collection of pictures each month starting right after he turned 2 (which was his Golden Birthday) to present day. I'm so excited to see what the rest of his year brings!

OCTOBER 2010 ~ A friend of Brad's took some amazing family photos of us at the Eau Claire Dells. Here it looks as though Braedyn is thinking, "Some day, I'm gonna BE somebody!!". Such purpose in his eyes as he plays with the pine needles :)

NOVEMBER 2010 ~ Short Pants running around the park... having a ball :) Until of course he throws a fit! Terrible two's anyone? haha

DECEMBER 2010 ~ On December 8th, Short Pants became a BIG BROTHER!! ...and a great one he is!

JANUARY 2011 ~ We introduced "potty training" in January but let him come and go as he pleased for a couple of months until a few months later when we tried the "3 Day Potty Training" method! It was a good fit for Short Pants, although it was NOT an easy process I'm proud to say he is now potty trained before the age of three!

FEBRUARY 2011 ~ Lunch time with mini-"pizzies" and salad! ...don't forget the cheese!!

MARCH 2011 ~ Short Pants must always know where his Thomas the Train is! He plays for hours with his wooden tracks and train cars all over the house. During story time he usually asks to read his two big Thomas books (that I know by heart now) and each time he gets SO excited during the story like we've never read it before!

APRIL 2011 ~ HAPPY EASTER! Another Short Pants favorite around our house is Disney Cars and racing which is his room theme. So the Easter bunny brought him this Lightening McQueen race car full of treasures that he loved!

MAY 2011 ~ I can't believe how big he is now and how "grown up" he seems to be getting every day. My little Short Pants keeps me on my toes for sure, brings us all so much joy, and has such a bright future ahead!

I hope this blog helps share just how amazing he is. This journey of motherhood has been more than a blessing to me and such a ride! I don't know what I would have done without all the generosity that has come from so many of our family and friends along the way. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH for ALL you do for us every day!!
