I had a very laid back birthday this year-quite a difference from the celebration last year! It was very nice to actually sleep through the night this year on my birthday...last year Brayden was one month old so there wasn't much celebrating going on:)
We hung around the house and got the Christmas decorations out and then ended up going to get our tree and decorate it before Max and I went to dinner.
Tucker checking out all of the Nutcrackers.
Tucker's interest in the Nutcrackers must have rekindled Max's thing for the Nutcrackers...he actually got around to fixing all of the broken ones. Of course Tucker had to be in on the action.
Brayden enjoyed checking out the decorations that he could actually get to. We don't put a ton of stuff out, especially now that the kids will wreck the good stuff, but we leave a couple of the unbreakable things for the kids to play with:)
It was a beautiful day to get the tree!
This is the one!
Brayden's pretty much dropped his morning nap (somewhat encouraged) but if he's in the car during the morning he'll fall asleep usually. Suddenly, he also will stay asleep when you take him out...on multiple occasions. And on this day, he will also sleep through most of your lunch until you wake him up so that he'll actually fall asleep again. He's such a cutie:)
I've officially turned into my mom-I unwrapped the ornaments and Max and Tucker put them up. And he only broke one! He's still talking about it so if you're curious which one it was, you can ask:)
Brayden was forced to eat lunch during the decorating to make it a more pleasant experience for us all:) But he had fun watching!
This was so cute. Max stood up on the ottoman to put the star on, and Tucker climbed right up there next to him wanting to "my help too daddy." He barely fit on the stinkin' thing, but it was so cute!
We finished the day out with a delicious and fun meal at the Melting Pot. Love it all:)
Sunday we celebrated with my family and the best freaking cannoli cake! Max ordered the good kind with the flaky filling and asks for 5 cannoli's on top-something apparently the bakery had never had before:)
Tucker putting on his usual show-fueled by the cannolis that he loves:)
After a cannoli for dessert the next day, he invented "Mr. Napkin hand," his trusty side-kick.
This has nothing to do with anything except that it's cute...Brayden looks like he thinks Tucker is a nut...and has too many stripes on!
