Today, Brayden took place in a multi-event Olympics between 9 am and 11 am. This is the rundown of the events of the day. Here is the face of a future star:

First Event: Mischief Mania

Goal: To cause as much trouble as possible while mommy is busy tending to two other children.

Results: First Place– Found a box of tampons in mommy’s bag, and turned the volume up really high on the cd player.

Second Event: Individual Ball Pit Jumping

Goal: Remove pants, unsnap onesie and jump into the ball pit with as much style as possible.

Results: 3rd Place–deductions taken for closing eyes (see second picture) and for not sticking his landing. (I know, I know. . . tough judges).

Water Break. Actually, it was milk, but who cares.

Third Event: Synchronized Ball Pit Jumping

Goal: To not kill each other while simultaneously jumping into ball pit.

Results: Disqualified. False start by one of the jumpers during every attempt. Good thing, or there probably would’ve been a few collisions. Laughter was had by all.

Break: Brayden’s goal during his break was to make it appear that he was going to have a home birth in a natural setting in a tub of balls. He was just waiting for the midwife to arrive. Oh, there she is in the upper right hand corner of the picture–the one with the ladybug shoes.

This concludes Brayden’s Toddler Olympics. Overall, he didn’t do so well. Since he won’t qualify to compete the next time the Toddlers Oympics comes to town, I better hope my next child does a better job 🙂 Let’s hope there’s one on the way soon!
