Big B, Little b


So, I am obsessed with the website "Etsy.com" and am continually looking for cute shirts to create for the boys for special occasions. Well, I wanted a cute shirt with their initial, which led to these creations. A big "B" for Brayden and a little "b" for Burke. They were a hit at daycare and I think they are so cute! (aside from Mr. Grumpy pants in the picture above- apparently he doesn't care for mommy taking his picture 3 minutes out of bed...) We also got some super cute Valentines shirts, which I will share in a later post.

Varsity Hockey Game

Last Thursday night, Brayden's mini-mite hockey team got to skate during the break after the 1st period of the Rosemount Irish Varsity Boys hockey game. The boys were SO excited. It was so much fun for him. Here are some pictures from the game...

Brayden, getting ready (in the stinky locker room...his words, not mine. But, I have to agree...)
Waiting for the 1st period break with his little buddy...
Burkie in Brayden's hockey gloves. How cute!
The boys waiting to go on the ice.
The varsity team stood at the entrance and high-fived and cheered on the boys as they came on the ice. They loved it.

Brayden- looking for mom and dad.
This was such a great experience for their team and the boys had so much fun.

New Years, Bubbles and Paint

This is a long post so bare with me!

New years we again spent with the Pace family. Tara, Tony & Ben again came over and we had a blast. We cook a big dinner and the kids (and adults) play. This year we also celebrated our Christmas with the Pace family as well at the same time. The kids all got a ton of great gifts and even the adults got some great things (Thanks Paces!) I love that the kids are getting old enough to all play together and Ben and Burke had a great time!! Here are a few pictures from New Years.
Brayden and Ben- how cute is this?!

Brayden started outdoor hockey this past month and it's been a cold one! One night after outdoor hockey, Steve made the boys a hot, jacuzzi bubble bath. At first, both boys were hesitant, but by the end, they both loved it. Now, it's almost a tradition on outdoor hockey nights!!

My adorable little guy!
Of course Burke had to try and eat the bubbles!
Silly boy!
Burke and Brayden enjoy arts and crafts and one day they wanted to paint. So, out came the painting supplies. They both LOVED it. It's washable so I tend to let them be "free" with the paint and Burke decided to paint himself! Normally, I'd stop him, but he was having so much fun and it was so cute, I had to let him go. Needless to say, he had a bath immediately following these pics!!


Teamwork


Looks like a masterpiece!
Well, we hope that all of our friends and family had a safe and happy holiday season. It's hard to believe it's over already!
