Happy Halloween

We had a great time...left our camera at the house we went trick or treating from...i will post more later!

Braydon was spiderman, and Brielle was a turtle! They both had fun, Braydon ran from house to house with the older kids, and Brielle was determined to walk most of the time....even gesturing us to the front door..they both cam home with LOTS of candy!

Brielle started walking on her own one week ago....and she has not looked back, it is very rare to see her crawling! and so...we enter another new stage in the Bolt Household...so much fuN!
Happy Halloween!
Braydon and Brielle and their pumpkins! before we went trick or treating

Happy Birthday Brielle!

Brielle turned 1 yrs old this past weekend, and was able to celebrate with her Grandma Kidder...whom she shares a birthday with. Hard to believe that a year has already gone by, but we can't imagine our life without our little Brie-Brie.

She is changing a lot right now....we have determined that she could walk if she wanted to...often taking many steps in a row, but still likes to hold a finger and guide someone else around the house...(maybe it is her way of guarenteeing your attention is on her. :)) She will do it independently when she is ready. She has a a few words: mom, dad, ball, cat, dog, bear, cup......and continues to be a very smiley little girl...most of the time. She still only has the 2 teeth...but we can feel some lumps on the top gums. Braydon did great for his sisters birthday, even though it is hard for an almost 3 yr old to understand why he is not getting any presents at the same time.

Grandpa and Grandma Kidder were here for the weekend...Braydon was so excited! We celebrated with them, and then we all went to the pumpkin patch on Sunday to pick our own pumpkin...slowly we are getting ready for Halloween!
Happy Birthday Brielle!
the frosting..her favorite part
even offering to feed Braydon a little
okay...not so sure she liked the hat..but she wore it :)
her cake...decorated and frosted by Grandma Kidder
her left hand stayed in that spot of the cake for a few minutes...
then she started to dig into it
and finally it started to go across the tray...

my little girl.....
oh, how she loves her daddy!
