Making Brownies

Last Sunday Branson and I made brownies for his injured Daddy... Branson had a lot of fun mixing the batter and even stole bites when I wasn't watching!

Apparently cooking is hard work... but you got to love those rubber boots!

Smiling for the Camera

Well Baby Tappan had another photo shoot today... thought I'd share some of the pics today. Looks like we've got another little cutie on our hands... doctor wouldn't give his educated guess on sex this time since it was too soon... another 4-6weeks then we'll know!

this one is a profile shot with the baby's hand giving a salute!

Potty Time!

On Thursday, I got the itch to work a little with Branson on potty training... back on his birthday his Nonny bought him some really cool Lightning McQueen undies so I decided to put them on him for a bit. We tried them on just before bathtime on Thursday night and then told Branson to use the potty which he did very willingly! Friday morning as we were getting ready, we did the same thing and once again he did great... Friday after school we went to visit my grandparents and Branson told me he had to go #2 and he was right! He went right in the potty without any complaints. Saturday was similar and he told me he had to go, we rushed to the potty and he went! Sunday was a little harder as we were rushing around and he is not feeling well, but all in all, he is picking this thing up! Hoping to try a little more this week and see what he can do!

Monday

Monday we went to see the Disney movie Up. Of course Branson loved watching the movie and sat through it like a champ! Before we went we had to stop for breakfast... Branson and Brandon were playing a cute game with their baseball hats... unfortunately I didn't get a good shot of the two of them! But I couldn't pass it up to share this one.

Go Tommy!!!

Brandon got free tickets to the Round Rock Express Baseball game on Sunday, so we headed out there to watch the game! Branson was a trooper and really got into cheering for the players by name! It was fun to watch him! His favorite player was Tommy and so when Grandma bought him a toy the next day, he made sure to name him Tommy. :) too cute! We had intended to stay for the fireworks, but when the game was still tied in the 12th inning, we gave up! Good thing we did too, because they didn't win the game until the 15th inning!

Oatmeal Flyer!

Saturday we woke up early had our usual donuts for breakfast and headed to Cedar Park to catch the train to Bertram! Branson and Grandma both had a blast riding the train. This weekend was the 31st annual Oatmeal Festival in Bertram... we watched the parade, but didn't actually go to the festival before reboarding and heading back home.

Playing at the Park

Of course we had to take Grandma to the park to play for a little bit too...
