or maybe..."I'm Just awesome?!"

My book club friends will get this shirt. :P This just happens to be Braeden's favorite saying these days. I had to laugh when I saw it in the store and of course he had to have it. It was a hit both at home and school.

Braeden has been losing teeth again. First 2 more on the bottom, then the top front tooth. What he is left with makes us all just cringe. New nicknames he goes by include: Billy Bob, Hill billy bob, Snaggle, and Bucky. We beg him to wiggle that hanger on, and sometimes threaten to smack him in the mouth or tie it to something. I never thought I'd be happy to see him with a hole in his face, but come on this thing has GOT TO GO!

Elton John

Mom and I went to see Elton John at the Covelli Center in Youngstown on May 1st. It was pretty cool to share this experience with my mom.

Elton John is a god!!!!! Seeing and hearing him in person is extraordinary. He really is awesome. We had odd seats, actually behind the stage. We were only about 15 or 20 rows up and had a great view..... of his back. But that being said he pretty much just sits there banging away at the piano so we really didnt miss much.


I saw Elton last year when he came to Cleveland with Billy Joel.(who is also a god.) I have to say this concert was MUCH better. I had a ton of fun, even though I was totally stressed about leaving the baby home with Scott for so long, they both did fine. I got home at about 1am and she waited until then to wake up for her late night feeding.
It was a great time!! Thanks Mom!!

2nd grade show





All of the second graders at Albion Elementary put on a show! It was about how the three little pigs traveled the world. Braeden's class all wore green and their part was about Africa. Please excuse the terrible camera manning, I was holding a baby in one hand and the camera in the other. Braeden did a great job and made me sooo proud. :) He played and instrument called a Suji which I thought was totally cool, and he made it look cool too.

I was very impressed with all of the kids and his music teacher especially.
