So last Sunday we made a gingerbread house!! Brady really liked it! He liked the icing the best...he would keep putting his finger out for more! He had icing everywhere!! Then he was eating all the candies and we would tell him to put them on the house!! HE DID!! He did a good job!! It was a fun night, Brady got messy but that is the fun part about it! To see what he does!! We were laughing so hard cause it's not the best gingerbread house but it was FUN!!

Dont laugh too hard...this was our first time!! HEHE

Here we are making rice krispies!! Brady is such a big helper! He loves to help his mom and dad! It was cute he was stirring them and then eating them off the spoon! We were laughing so hard......he LOVES his rice krispies!! He is at a fun age where he can help out!!!! He is already 15 months and I can't believe it!!

Christmas Decorations

OK here are my Christmas Decorations I have had people asking me when I was going to put them on (shauna) one of them, so here you all go!! We love this time of the year!! I have had my decorations up since Nov 1st!! Thanks to my cute mom for helping me! Thanks MoM!!! See our thanksgiving is in October, so as I am taking down our Halloween stuff Taras always ask, so are you putting up the Christmas Decorations I usually say in about a week or so. And he says aww just put then up!! But this year it was earlier!! So he was HAPPY!! He likes all the decorations. So do we! It just seems like it goes by so fast, you put everything up and then it seems like you take it all down!! We like to enjoy it for awhile!! You all must wonder how does Brady do with them? Does he bother them?? NOPE!! He is really, really good! Once in a blue moon he will take this one decoration off the tree but that is it!! It was so funny cause last year Brady was three months and everyone is telling me OH next year you wont be able to have this or that! I was like YA right! Just cause I have kids doesn't mean I have to put MY things away, he has learned and is great about it!! If you have it out then they learn not to touch it!!

Ok sister......now I BETTER SEE YOURS!!

FeEdInG the CoWs with DaDdY

So a couple of weeks ago we went with dad to feed some of the cows!! Brady loved it, he loves the cows and all the tractors! Every time he sees the tractors he starts to point and talk he is own lingo....it's cute he just loves them!! So we have a couple of cows that are tame and they are out where Taras feeds them. We have some of them here at our yard and the rest are at another yard..anyways me and Taras calve out half the heard and his parents do the other half. That was before I had Brady! So we would go there in the mornings and check to see if any cows have calved and tag and needled them, fed them etc. then we go home for lunch and then back to calving well when we went back there was like 6 cows that had calved and too many calf's one of them had twins. See they lay down to calve and she did but then she got up and went to another spot and calved again and she didn't know she had the first one. If they don't have them in the same spot then they don't know they had twins....unless they come to smell them, that is how they can tell there baby from the other ones! And if they do have twins we put then in a pen for awhile so she knows she has two of them!! So we saw this little calf by one of the feeders and no cows were coming for it, so we figured it was a twin! So we would let all the other cows smell it but no one wanted her (sometimes this happens) so we fed it and took care of it till it was big enough to go on it's own.....and we called her twinzel. She was our buddy!! Every morning she knew when we got there she would get fed!! She would follow us around, basically we were her parents!! It's cute! Well now she is big but she still comes to us!! Brady would pet her and sit on her!!! Which he LOVED!! So I have a couple of pics to show you guys!!

This is twinzel......

It's a.............

So yesterday we had a ultrasound to see what we are having!! It's wasn't till 4:00. We left the house around 8:30 and got into Winnipeg around 10:30-11:00, we went to the mall and did Xmas shopping, we also saw Santa...which Brady LOVED!!! It was perfect timing no one was there, there was a couple in front of us so while we are waiting, we're like Brady look it's Santa....he was looking and then the lady (elf) came over and said hi Brady and was talking to him and she says does it matter even if he's crying, as long as we get a picture? I said I don't think he will cry, so Taras took him over and put him on Santa's lap and Brady was LOOKING at him and here we are trying to make him smile!! It was great..we got a little smile out of him but he sure was looking at him!! He likes Santa!! The lady was surprised that he didn't cry!! So then we met Taras' Aunty Myrna and his cousin Becca for lunch at Boston Pizza it was yummy!! Then we went and saw his other cousin at her work Tammy, stayed there for about 10 mins then we were off to FIND OUT!! We got there and I had to fill out some paper work and wait cause someone else was in the room. So she comes out and gets us and we go back in the room. She asked us if we wanted to know the sex....we said YES and she started, we saw it's head and cute little finger's and toes...it's mouth, arms and then she said ok lets see what it is.....

here's the face..

and then it's yawning

grabbing it's toes....

After we got done we were calling everybody telling them we are having another boy!! Daddy was happy that he is having another boy, so is mommy but daddy is glad he will have two boys to help on the farm and to play hockey!! I love my boys!! Oh ya I did the drano test and the needle and they both said I was having a GIRL! It was wrong... it didnt work on me!! All boys here!!

So we had pictures taken of Brady since he is over a year! I wanted to get some done since he is getting so big and not a baby anymore. We had some taken when he was about 7 months and I loved the way she takes pictures. Her name is Tami Foss and she is amazing!! I don't have them back but she sent me some! It's always so hard to pick which ones I want cause they are all soooo cute! I always go over and have to pay more but this time I was pretty good!! She also gives us a cd of them so that everyone else can get some made up!! I thought I would share a few with you!!
