Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

I hope everybody had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Brayden had a great first Thanksgiving. We spent the day at Sara's house. The food was awesome and we all had a fun time. Don't worry Annalise was not eating this, just playing with it and saying Gobble Gobble. She had the cutest Gobble noise I have ever heard.
The kids all played before dinner. Nathan got a new doctor's kit from Grammie and PaPa and gave everybody a check-up. Even Brayden was given a once over by Nathan. He apparently had a fever which was fixed by a shot and a bandaid. He had an excellent bedside manner.
Annalise was having fun with some bows Grammie had brought, not for her, but they looked so cute on her.
After all the playing and the good food, which Brayden of course didn't have any of, he was exhausted.

A Great Weekend!!!!

Last weekend was busy and fun. Just because I am excited, I have to start on Sunday. Victor and Stacey came to visit us and told us that we are going to have a new niece or nephew in July. This is their first and it will be fun having a baby so close to Brayden in age. Stacey and I went baby clothes shopping and I had to get something cute for Victor Jr./Victoria. (Just joking, that's what Uncle Victor wanted us to name Brayden.) Here is the new baby in his outfit.
On Saturday my Mom and Stepdad came to visit. We all went to the Holiday boutique at church and then came home for the big game. Brayden and I got dressed up for both events. It's never to early to start Christmas!

Michigan vs. Ohio

It, was a good game but we won't discuss the outcome. For those of you who don't know the Ohio outfit was given to us by Brayden's Tia Irma and Tio Juan(Albert). Albert is a big Michigan fan like Curtis and they thought this would be funny, which it has been for everybody else. Daddy had to leave the room while I took the picture.


We took some family pictures just the way Curtis likes them with his whole family in blue and gold. Go Big Blue!!!

Some Fun!


Our friends, Traci and Shawn, came to visit. People tell Traci and I we look like sisters and we have a lot in common. It is almost scary! We had a BBQ and a round of the Friends Scene It game. Which is fun for us because we all love Friends!(The show and each other, of course.)

We have been going for walks a lot and it has been geting cold. I started putting hats on Brayden. Daddy is not to sure about this snow boarding hat, but I think it is cute. What do you think Maya? You thought it was cute when you bought it, what do you think now?

Some Barbers Visit

My brother-in-law, Gabe, was nice enough to let us borrow his family for a few days last week. (Thanks Gabio!!!!) We had a lot of fun hanging out and watching the kids play. Andrew broke in all of Brayden's toys for him. He decided that they were all fun and tasty.

Cheri and I very often buy the same clothes, not on purpose. It is funny that our sons already have matching clothes. After taking some pictures, we realized that we were dressed similar also.

It was both of the boys first Halloween this year so we dressed them up when Grammie and PaPa came to visit. They were both very cute. I love the one of Tiger Andrew in his cage!

We can't wait to visit them in December for Andrew's first birthday!!!!

Our Big Strong Boy!

Our son has proven that he is a big, strong, boy. He rolled over for the first time on Nov 1 and has done it several times since then, but he is not very consistent yet. On the 7th he had his 2 month appt and was 15 lbs, which is 100% for his age. He was also 23 3/4 inches, which is 80%. So at least he is well proportioned. He only eats once at night now and went 8 hours between feedings last night. Yeah!!!!!!!

We finally got a picture of the little man smiling. I could watch him smile all day, and luckily for me I can. He is wearing the same outfit, but as you can see by his chubbier cheeks it is 2 weeks later.

It's the Great Punkin!

On Brayden's first Halloween he dressed up as a Pumpkin. We went to my sister Sara's house and went trick or treating with them. I think he had a good time.

We tryed to get a picture of Brayden with his cousins but Annalise was more interested in Brayden than smiling for the camera, but you can still see how cute she looked.

Brayden hit it big trick or treating at Aunt Sara"s house.

Bakersfield

We went to Bakersfield last Saturday to visit family. Brayden had fun with everybody! Here is Brayden with his Grammy and PaPa Heard.

Here is Brayden with his cousin C.J. For those of you who don't know, their fathers are identical twins. We will see if they look similar when Brayden gets older. C.J. is very excited to teach his new cousin how to play X-Box.
