Sweet Braylen Kate,
Here we are, 22 months in and absolutely smitten with your sweet smile. You are such a bright spot in everyones life, they all have sweet stories about something funny you told them or some dramatic face you made over something. You are quite the entertainer and you aren’t shy one bit. I see so much of myself in you, you love to talk and you literally talk from the time you wake up until the time your eyes close. Your talking is in full sentences and no one ever wonders what is wrong or what is on your mind. You are at full speed from the time your feet hit the floor in the morning until we tuck you in at night. I see so much of your daddy in you as well, as you patiently put your puzzle together, giving it way more time than I ever would. That’s one of the triats I prayed you would pick up from him before you were even born. I think that’s his best quality, his patience. It’s something I joke about but something I have to work on every single day, but not him. He’s a natural and worry free, you picked that one up to. You’re carefree and fun-loving just like an almost 2 year old should be.
As people talk about the “terrible two’s” approaching it’s funny that you have mellowed out a bit on the heels of your two’s. I wonder if that will change? This past few weeks you have been the sweetest, most loving, girl I have ever met. You have turned into such a daddy’s girl. But when I ask you who your best friend is you still smile really big and give a very excited, “Mommy!” as your answer. You love the nursery at church and you love to play with your friends there. I hear that you’re a little bossy in the nursery, but you play well and you don’t mind sharing. If you want to sing a song or play a game, you think everyone else should be playing it with you.
You love to eat out and be on the go. Your daddy and I love to eat out so we definitely feared that day would come where you would be too rowdy to sit still and eat but you aren’t. It’s funny because you are busy and on the go all day long but you don’t mind sitting still and eating. You are quite the little foodie. You went to your first sick baby doctors visit this month and it looked like there might be an ear infection on the horizon, you temperament never really changed and well, it should be long gone now.
I’ve moved away from worring about you grow up too quickly to just being thankful that we have such a special person in our lives. It will always be my prayer that no matter how fast your grow up that you never outgrow your love for Jesus. What a blessing he has given us in you.

- I know you weigh around 25 pounds but I’m not sure how tall you are, probably between 33-35 inches.

- Your vocabulary is excellent and we’ve yet to stump you with a word. You repeat everything we say. Your big vocabulary is still impressive and you string words together and make sentences like a pro. You mainly uses sentences as your form of communication. When you want something you say “Mommy, I want an ______” and when you don’t want something it’s usually “No, I not like that.” or “I not want that”
- You are so very polite and say “Please” and “Thank you” after everything. The other day you even asked Coco, “Please, I have it” when you were trying to get her ball.
- Your favorite toys are your kitchen, your tent, Melissa and Doug ice cream set and alphabet puzzle and your baby dolls.
- Your favorite tv show is Bubble Guppies and the only other one you even remotely like is Dora.
- You love to sing (Twinkle, Twinkle, Moves Like Jagger and Jesus Loves Me are your favorites), play with other babies, play the piano and guitar with daddy, hide and let us come find you, color, play outside, ride in the car, put on your “makeup,” dance and “cook” for us from your kitchen.
- Favorite foods: Greek yogurt, pancakes, oranges, bananas, apples, peanut butter, goldfish, spaghetti, chicken, popcorn, >and cheese. You love water and milk too.
