Curious Brigdon is T.W.O!

We celebrated our littlest boy's birthday over the course of a few days full of fun and cake and surprises.  Hard to believe that teeny 6-pounder baby boy is already two.  And I've been fair warned about the "Terrible Two's," but to be quite honest, the Terrible Two's have been around for a few months!

We celebrated on Brigdon's actual birthday -- November 30 -- with cupcakes after supper just our little family.

He says, "Tayke!"  (Cake)

The following Saturday afternoon, we had a small friends-and-family Curious George themed birthday party...appropriately in honor of our very own monkey boy.

Monkey cupcakes -- thank you, Pinterest!

The Birthday Boy and B -- Make a Wish!

And what's a party without presents?!

There's one other big surprise from Granddad and B, but that's for another post. 

(Hint:  It involves the infamous Mickey Mouse!!)

Welcome Baby Kai

The boys welcomed a new cousin back in October, little Kai aka "bay bay" as per Briggy.  We let Harrison skip out from school and made the drive to St. Augustine to meet him. 

They are smitten.  :)

Who knew a few quick shots in the front yard before church could turn out so cute??

Memory Monday

***After a long break from blogging, I'm back -- and very glad about it!***

We're recovering from a busy Thanksgiving weekend full of food, shopping, and fun.  More about our holiday shananigans in tomorrow's Tuesday Ten.  But for today, it's Memory Monday!

For today, I'm going to jump back a little further than one year ago to TWO years ago.  We were a family of three at that time and anxiously awaiting baby Brig to make his appearance.  We celebrated the holiday, but opted for no shopping.  Instead, we packed for the hospital, tied up loose ends for the nursery, and put up Christmas decorations.  And it was perfect timing because the Monday after Thanksgiving, we welcomed our sweet pistol of a fella Brigdon David Chapman to our family, and we have never been the same. 

Memory Monday

Taking a quick glance back one year ago...

We were right in the thick of summer.  Hot, muggy mornings outside and nice, long afternoon naps (for the boys, not for me) in the A/C!

This time last year, we were finishing up Vacation Bible School at church...Harrison's first VBS experience actually.  He had the most fun that week and I had the privilege of leading his class. 

My other little pipsqueak -- this time a year ago -- was on the verge of feeding himself.  It's no surprise both my boys are good eaters and love the eat.  (Have you seen their Mama...enough said)!
