Little Fishy's

Grampa Gens gave me my own minnow bucket with little fishy's. This was the best gift ever and kept me entertained (and the adults too who were watching me) for hours! Thanks Grampa!

My Little Pony

I'm a little pony...clippity clop...clippity clop...such a pretty pony...

OK...I love to ride my pony but I think the music is driving my mom and dad a bit crazy!

My 2nd Christmas

I'm a little elf on Christmas morning!

Merry Christmas

Posing for our family Christmas card!

I wanted to play with the ornaments but mom wanted me to smile for the camera!

My first time sledding!

While daddy put up lights, mom took me sledding around the yard. This is my trial run before the wintery snow comes. I love sledding!

Thanksgiving weekend

Lunch after picking up Uncle Robert for Thanksgiving.
This was my kid sized pizza but I was nice and shared with everyone!

Mommy found me my new favorite drink.... a mango fruit drink from Starbuck's! MmmMmm Good!

I love to play with blocks and cousin Kylee made me a fort just so I could DESTROY it!

The spoon!

I'm a big boy and love to eat with a spoon.

Mom and Dad let me be messy and it is fun.

Dad gave me some cookie dough and it is yummy!

Peek-A-Boo

My latest trick...I'm such a silly boy!

Happy Halloween

Trick or Treat

Walking Puppy

Here comes the puppy......

There goes the puppy.....

Pumpkin Carving

Lots of pumpkins and spooky lanterns

Braden's talking for the camera...he's not shy! Then he "sings" using his hand which Grandma Wilmes tought him awhile ago.

Learning to Eat with a Spoon

Braden is learing to eat with a spoon. It is 50/50 as to how much goes in his mouth vs. on his body! Thank goodness for bathtime!

Smart Little Boy

Braden loves his toys and has gotten quite good at putting the rings on the cone (even if Dad puts them in order)!

A story for all my fans

Braden loves to talk so we caught him on tape!

Learning to walk

We love to watch Braden learn to walk.
He is so proud when he takes a few steps.
Aaron and I have him walk back and forth between us.
It has become a nightly event!

"Crash and Laugh"

"8 steps and counting!"

Deanna Rose Farmstead

The Deanna Rose Children's Farmstead

We had a great time taking Braden to the Deanna Rose Children's Farmstead. Braden had so much fun and will have even more fun when he is older and can walk/run around. We saw a bald eagle, bobcats, a hawk, goats, chickens, cows, sheep and many other farm animals. Braden was not scared at all and got right in there with the goats and sheep. Must be because of his dog Riley. It was a gorgeous day and an a nice family outting. I'm anxious to go back!

Braden's 1st Birthday Party at Daycare

Thanks Mary Beth and Grandma Karin for a great birthday party at daycare! Mom made some "hostess" cupcakes to share with all of Braden's friends.
