It's been so long

Wow! So much has changed since I updated! I had planned on updating more regularly, and I will try harder. School was a challenge this semester, for all of us!

Brayden is growing up so fast! He's such a happy guy, unless he's hungry. The boy can eat! He's eating cereal and baby food now. What a mess that is.

He went on his first spring break trip! We have pictures!
His first flight! Here is his favorite flight attendant, Chastity. She loved him! He was pretty good. On our trip back we even got complimented by the poor guy sitting next to us on how good he was. He had about 5 minutes of crankiness each way. Not bad!









His first time in a pool! He wasn't sure at first. By the time we left he was smiling in the pool.












His first time in the ocean! He wasn't sure about this either. He was more sure about the nap he took at the beach.
















His first amusement park ride! It was a tiny little merry go round. It was so cute! We went to Busch Gardens and he was a little trooper. It was pretty hot.








It was an awesome trip! Here are some more adorable pix of Brayden!

































I promise I will try to keep up better!

Brayden is Awesome!

Brayden was 5 weeks old yesterday and he's doing great. He weighed 9lbs. 6 oz. and he was 22" long. He's growing like crazy. He's smiling more every day. He is still such a good baby. No that there are bad babies, he's just so content. He sleeps through the night quite a bit. I know that he's young for that, but he does it.


He's outgrowing all of his cute newborn outfits. His little chicken legs are filling out too. They were so skinny for a while.


He had a great Christmas too. Everyone loved to see him when we went back to Saginaw. He had the CUTEST outfit on that his Gramma Sharon got for him and the shoes I got for him. Here he is wearing it with his Mommy.


He got this crazy pacifier from his crazy Aunt Cathy! He also got a onesie from her that said, "Don't you wish your mommy was hot like mine?" Aunt Cathy got that too. His Uncle Kyle got him a Guns 'n Roses onesie because his Uncle Jimmy got him a Guns 'n Roses t-shirt for him when he was a baby. It was a great Christmas with lots of family and lots of laughing.


Brayden is on formula now. Kaitlyn did great with feeding him, but it got to be too much. It was time to move on to bottles. He did well switching over. He hardly ever spits up at all.


Kaitlyn is so lucky, and so are we that we get to be with him all of the time. Going to work is harder than it used to be because I hate to leave him. That's why I don't get it that his Dad can not see him hardly at all. He hasn't called to even check up on him for a couple of weeks. I don't know what his deal is. Kaitlyn is done dealing with him though. She's tired of all of the BS and she's just going to be a great Mommy. It's Cinco's loss. He'll look back some day and realize how stupid he was, or maybe he never will. Who knows. No matter what happens, we'll always be there for them both.

Here's Grampa Doug with Brayden on Christmas. He needs his picture on here too. He loves being a Grampa!
