Braden the Brute

People have joked that Braden lifts weights during his naps. Never have I been more inclined to believe that than yesterday, when I checked on him taking a nap and found he had put his fist thru the wall. For a fraction of a second I was upset with him and wanted to tell lhim to be more careful. But then the absurdity of a 2 year old being able to punch thru the wall hit me. Even stranger was the truth - that our sprinklers had wet the bricks which had sucked the water into the house and moistened his drywall to the point that it would cave in if pushed. Aaron has been busily adjusting our sprinklers and when the bricks dry completely we will fix the gaping hole in the wall that is next to Braden's bed. In the meantime it is covered with plastic and posterboard and Braden has been asked not to hit it very hard :)..

Houses and kids. That's our phrase for getting through all the little tragedies and messes created by both!!! But Braden is not a brute!!!! He's too cute.
