Another Visit with GG

"Auntie" Ben is Funny!
Braden and I finally got to see Ben, Jess, & Baby Abby again! We haven't seen them since they came to visit May long weekend! We went to my mom's place and had a really nice visit with her whole family. We got to visit GG and Uncle Steve, it was wonderful to see everyone again. Braden started calling my brother "Auntie Ben". I don't know why, he used to call him "Unca Den" clear as a bell...but suddenly uncles are now aunties too! Ben tried so hard to teach him otherwise, but all of his attempts went like this:
Ben: UNCLE!
Braden: Ben!
Ben: UNCLE!
Braden: Ben!
Ben: Braden, say "Please, Uncle Ben!"
Braden: Please, Auntie Ben!
"Auntie" Ben is Funny!
But they really do have a great bond, they're kindred spirits I think! Same birthdays, both lefties...look-a-likes as kids! Then we got to take the great-grand babies to visit GG.
 Visiting GG!
Those little kids just light up the room and GG's eyes and smile! It's so wonderful to see the bonds forming with all of them. Then later that night Jess and Ben went back to Edmonton for a bit and I had this little beauty all to myself! Well, Mom was there to help too of course!

She is SO pretty, isn't she?! And Braden really loved being outside as much as he could! Also, when did he turn into this "kid"? This little man? Sheesh!

  1. Hehe I love that first picture of them pounding it. He's changing that's for sure - over the next few months til he turns 3 you're still going to be amazed @ the changes like every day. Happens so fast!

    1. The personality and "maturity" is what's changing so fast it's unbelievable! And he's also getting taller, go figure!

  3. You and your brother look a lot alike. It's so sweet that you are able to take the kids to visit their Great Grandmother.

  4. I just love the pictures you get of the kids with GG. You can tell that you are just making her the happiest person by bringing the kids to her - what sweet memories the kiddos will have when they get older :)
