First Big Trip

We traveled back to Oshkosh this weekend to celebrate the life of a great man, Great Grandpa Elden.  He passed away unfortunately before being able to meet Brayden, but we know how much he would have loved him!  He will be missed!

Cousin Charlie only a few weeks older than Brayden, should be fun to get together when they’re a little older!

Here is a pic of the First Thanksgiving outfit Grandma Deb got….she’s a little biased, the bib says “Thankful for Daddy!”  Pretty darn cute, don’t you think?

One Month!

Brayden is one month old today!  I don’t think he was particularly happy about this picture though.  It will be fun to see how much he grows over the next couple months!

Newborn Pics

We had a photo shoot for Baby Brayden today! All in all, he did pretty good, considering! Mom and Dad had to hold him between shots to warm him he up. He just does not like to be naked! i suppose that's a good thing though, right? Enjoy the pictures! Thank you to Stacy for taking such great pictures of our little angel!










Due Date

Today is actually Brayden's due date, how is that possible?? I can't imagine not having him around for the past 3 weeks...yep, Brayden is now 3 weeks old! Unbelievable how much you can love someone this much!



We also had Brayden's newborn pictures taken today, which I will post later this week when we get them. All in all, he was pretty good for Stacy, she was able to capture some neat images of him!

Favorite Cousins!


Auntie Sarah and cousins, Maddie & Annika, visited us today. Brayden's cousin Maddie loves him very much, and always asks about "Baby Brayden". Before Brayden was born we told her how there was a baby in my tummy, at first, I think she thought we were crazy! Eventually when you would ask her where Nikki's baby was, she would point to my tummy. Now she gets to hold her favorite cousin! We also made one of our first ventures out into the world today, to Target. We were quite the group! Luckily they are containable in the cart right now, just wait until cousin Annika starts walking though, look out world!
