Family Birthday Party

 Dad and Grandma Bramhall worked very hard on this Fire Fighter truck for Carter.

 Both sides gathered together to celebrate Carter's birthday.

 Nadya was not wanting to giver her present to Carter.

 Tysen could not wait to bonk Carter on the head.

 Our baby boy is 5!

The big revel. Can't tell that Carter is excited about his cake can you.

Thank you everyone for helping to make Carter feel very special on his Birthday.

Party was held on December 9, 2012

Friends Birth Day Party

 Meeting the fire chief before the party started.

 The fire fighters taught them about fire safety before they saw the trucks.

 Carter was the first one to sit in the drivers seat, he was in heaven.

 All of his friends that were able to come.

 Playing pop the balloon to see if you win. None of them were heavy enough to pop the 

balloons so we had to assist.

 These are the 4 amigos. Austin is the one in the dark sweater. Bryce is in the striped shirt. Brent is in the light blue shirt. Carter loves to have play dates with all three of these boys.

Playing with "his best present ever" play dough.

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!

Party held on December 7, 2012 at the Fire Station on 12600th riverton

Happy 5th Birthday Carter

 Carter got to choose what he wanted for lunch, his favorite Sprite and chicken nuggets.

 His birthday theme this year was Fire Fighters. Here he is posing as we are getting ready for his party. 

This is an outfit given to Carter by grandma Whitelock. When carter put it on he just kept saying how much he looked like a stud and how happy he was that his grandma bought it for him (pants slightly too long but he did not care).

Oh my sweet little Lee Bee where on earth has time gone that you are now 5. You have grown to be such a comedian, people are always amazed at your ability to speak like you are 15 rather than 5. You are so loving and kind, you always have hugs and kisses for me and your dad. You are the best big brother that Tysen and Nadya could have asked for. You are always helping me with the twins and things around the house. I love that you love to learn and that you catch on easily to new things being taught to you.

You are now weighing in at  38.14 pounds and are 40.55 inches tall. You were so brave at the doctors when you had to get your shots. You tried really hard not to cry so that when it was Tysen and Nadya's turn they wouldn't cry either. You kept telling them that it was ok and that you could go get suckers and stickers afterwards. Your brother and sister look up to you so much.

Carter right now you are learning to read in school and you are picking it up quickly. You love that everyday at school you get to do some sort of farm chore. Your favorite food is ravioli and candy. You love to drink chocolate milk (not white that seems to take you longer to drink). You love to try to distract us so that you can stay up longer by telling us that you have a question, then you have to think about what your question is. You are very good at stalling us and visitors when they come so that they don't leave too soon. You love to do homework (make me proud). You love to be outside shoveling snow and making snow cones to eat.

You are a very incredible boy and we are so blessed that you were sent to us. Always remember how much we love you and that your Heavenly Father loves you as well and that you are never alone even when it may seem as though you are. We can't wait to see what this year brings you. We love you so much son.

 Nadya being cute as ever for the camera, this is one of her favorite outfits she wears it at least once a week.

 Tysen was trying to climb this when I asked to take his picture. 

 Carter getting braver on touching the sting ray.

All three of my babies showing me what Nemo looks like and pointing to these black poky balls (they are some sort of sea creature).

Visitor's

 Carter loves cooking and what better than Grandma Bramhall to cook with him.

 Nadya loves to try somersaults and Grandpa was willing to help. 

Seeing his sister Tysen wanted to join in on the fun but as you can tell he did not find them near as fun as Miss Nadya.

We love when Grandma and Grandpa come stay with us. My kids get to see them and go on fun adventures with them. Thank you for being great grandparents to our kids.

Tysen and Nadya's FIRST Time At The DENTIST!

 Tysen did great till the dentist started poking his teeth.

Nadya reacting to Tysen crying.

Over all Tysen and Nadya did well at the Dentist. I am happy to report that all three of my babies did not have cavities. Yes they may be young but I want to be one step ahead of the game in hopes that they will not share the same love/hate relationship that not only does their mother have but the rest of society has as well concerning the dentist.

The Return of ELVIS!

For those of you who don't know this is Elvis, he is Santa's eyes and ears in our home during the month of December. Along with Elvis's return he also brought letter's from Santa telling the Bramhall children to behave and how proud he is of them for trying their best with obeying their parents and getting along with one another. We can't wait till Christmas comes to see if we have been good enough.
