"I had a great day."

This weekend Brahm was lucky to get to spend it with many people who love him.  Aunt Emily brought up his cousin Cameron on Friday night.  Emily stayed until Sunday and Cameron is going to spend over a week with us.  Over this weekend we learned that Abraham LOVES Cameron and he is going to learn how to share his toys. 

Aunt Emily and Cameron arrived right at bedtime Friday night.  Brahm's plan for Saturday morning was to watch Doodlebops with Aunt Emmy while eating Trix on the couch.  He woke up with only 15 minutes of Doodlebops left on TV, but his plan worked out!



For lunch Grammy and Grandpop came!  We ordered pizza and Grammy and Grandpop were able to read a few stories before naptime. 


Brahm very much did not want to go to sleep, because he wanted to go to Knoebels.  He has learned very early in life that visitors=trips to Knoebels!


Brahm also went on his favorites: "the cars" "the ball pit" "the firetrucks" and "the ostrich and tractor ride."  I even have pictures but blogger is being dumb about uploading them, so enjoy the ones I posted. 

Brahm is so funny about the rides though.  When you look at him on them, most of the time, he has no expression.  I have decided he has inherited this from his Uncle Glen.  Uncle Steve dubbed Uncle Glen "the little lost boy" because he never smiled for school pictures.  Uncle Steve would say Glen's picture would fit on the side of a milk carton. Brahm shares this trait.
  Despite the bored looks, he will talk about Knoebels for weeks.  Brahm has already started picking out rides he wants to go on with Rose and Cora when they visit. 

Tonight Cameron helped Jeremy and I put Brahm to bed.  He loved it!


When we asked if he wanted to give Cameron a Good Night hug, he attacked her with hugs and even gave her a kiss.  He loves his big cousin!

Fun Day with Daddy and Mommy

Today we took Abraham to Knoebels.  He has been there multiple times per year in his short two years, but this is the first time he went with just Mom and Dad.  Last night during his bath, Jeremy told Abraham that we might go to Knoebels tomorrow.  This morning, as soon as I went into his room to get him out of the crib, Brahm says, "Time to go to Brahm's Kia?"  I asked him where he was going, but he didn't tell me.  Then when I changed his diaper, he said, "Put diaper on, put fire truck 'jammies on, put socks and shoes on, go to Knoebels."  At least he wanted to be properly dressed.  The three hours we made him wait, were pretty torturous for him.

Here are some pictures of the fun:



Doesn't he look like a little germaphobe?



I sent this one to Pop Pop, apologizing for the wrong color.


Despite the serious faces, he did enjoy each ride.  I'm sure this trip will give him much to talk about until we can go back again.
