Christmas comes early!

Since we have to pay for checked bags, some of Braden's presents have been shipped here! It's nice that we don't have to fly them home and plus we get to play with them now! Grandma Dianna got him a bunch of clothes (basically all of his long sleeve outfits) and a bouncer. Grandpa Steve got him a shapes sorter, peg and hammer set, and a stacking set. Aunt Julia and Uncle Paul got him a tunnel with balls!

Lovin' Toes and Studying for Finals!

Braden loves his toes! There must be something really tasty about them because he will suck on them any chance he gets! It's super cute!

Last night Julia studied for finals (which she did great on) and I helped when I could. Braden and Scott hung out and did as much distracting as they could. They are very needy when it comes to wanting attention! They're so cute though it's easy for them to get attention.

First Tooth!!!

It's very hard to see, but it's there! Braden got his first tooth on Sunday! It's coming out a little more every day!

Girl's Night, Guy's Night!

Scott is husband/dad of the month because he got Spurs tickets from contractors and gave them to Jules and me! We had a great time! Julia was excited to see the game and we had fun saying "that's my neighbor" when Matt Bonner made a good play. We don't know him but he does live just 3 houses down from us! =) We were on the jumbotron too! It was really exciting to see our faces up on the big screen!

Scott played Mario Kart at home with Braden and he was asleep when we came home so he must have had a lot of fun with his dad!

SNOW!!!

Most of you know, but we got snow last week! Julia was stoked to see her car blanketed in snow until she couldn't leave for school because we didn't have a scraper. She sat inside her car as I scraped off her window with a light switch cover. =)

Random Pics

Here are some random pics of our cute boy from the last couple weeks! He's getting really close to sitting up. Still a little wobbly but he just might be there when we go home for Xmas.

Braden's first visit with Santa!

Braden met Santa on Monday night! He was amazed at all of his white hair! It was soo cute because he just kept staring at Santa. It was hard to get him to look away! He told Santa he wants mommy and daddy to get a full nights sleep for Christmas so we'll have to wait and see if he gets it!

Yum Yum!

Well we started giving Braden a little rice cereal. It's basically all milk with a little cereal. He's still working on figuring out his tongue and likes to spit it out but we're getting there. =)

Out for a hike

Sorry it's been awhile since our last blog. The week before Thanksgiving we all went for a hike at a nearby park to see some of the pretty fall colors. Jules and Scott carried Braden for quite a while in the bjorn and I realized how out of shape I am as I panted up the hill! =) By the end of the hike Braden fell asleep and Abby was wore out!
