Bathtime Fun

Braden is already too big for the baby bath, so we have moved on to the tub since he can't sit up in the duck bath yet. This means that Jackson and he can be in the bath at the same time!


Braden's first swim in the tub without the baby bath.


Jackson and Braden's first bath together.


Braden all wrapped up in a towel.

Playtime with Jackson and Braden

These are a few shots of my boys. They are already great friends. Jackson can't wait until Braden an play with him, but he is pretty content to entertain Braden until that day comes.


Jackson showing Braden the animals in his play gym.


One of Braden's favorite pastimes.


Gatsby was never sure about Jackson, and seems to still feel that way now that Braden is here!


Braden clearly thinks Jackson is way more interesting than the toys above his head!


Jackson riding the horse outside Fred Meyers.

Fourth of July 2008

With a brand new little one we decided we would have a quiet 4th without much fanfare. We met our friends the Zeebs at a water park nearby and let the kids play. Braden slept the whole time and Jackson, Alexa and JD never stopped moving. It was a great way to burn some energy before nap time!

Jackson's 3rd Birthday

Jackson enjoyed several days of birthday celebration. Here are a few highlights...he seems to be picking up on the week of birthday tradition quickly! What a smart boy!


Blowing out the candles at his family party.


Race cars and track from Grammy Claudia. Jackson actually picked this out of a catalog from Toys R Us, so it was exactly what he wanted this year.


Opening presents.


Decorating cupcakes for his party...


and eating his artwork! Not to worry, there were plenty left for the party.

A few pictures of my sweet boys!

One of my friends from work is dabbling in photography as a possible future career and offered to take some pictures of us with Braden. Hope you enjoy these sweet shots! We are so blessed!
