More Braxton's

So just when I thought we were caught up my son comes up with new funny things. Lately Braxton and I have played this game where we find owies and kiss them better. He'll find his owies and I will kiss them and he will want to kiss my owies better too. Sunday I came home from work and Kent and I were in my room talking while Braxton played by us. Kent gave me a kiss on the lips and immediately Braxton looked at me and asked, "Mommy, owie?" He too gave me a "kiss all better." After I finished laughing I had to fill Kent in on what had just happened and then we had another good laugh all together.

Tuesday Braxton was in a pull-up and that was all because I had just changed him. I walked outside to throw his dirty pull-up away and closed the door behind me to keep him from getting cold. When I turned around to walk back into the house he had locked the door. I kept telling him through the window to open the door and he tried, but just couldn't seem to get the concept of unlocking both locks at the same time. He's done this before, but it's always been when my neighbor is home and has a key to my place. This time I was forced to walk down to the managers apt. in my pajamas and stocking feet to get her key. I was so embarrassed. Braxton was so happy to see me when I did come back with the key. He obviously didn't know how much I wanted to kill him. Chalk it all up to lessons learned. An almost three year old has no qualms about locking you out...watch out!

Finally Kent told me tonight that Braxton wanted him to go for a ride with him. Not just any ride. Braxton wanted Kent to ride his little horse on wheels while Braxton rode his bike. Kent told me Braxton led him into his room turned him around and tried to sit Kent on the horse as if to say come on dad let's go for a ride together. What a funny kid!
