Braxton Meets his Uncle, Aunt, and Cousin.... The Broadbents Visit!!

After Grandpa Bill and Uncle Eddie left --Will, Brandy, Mikayla, and Cayman came to stay with us. Mikayla kept us all entertained, she was adorable, pointing to Braxton and saying "Baby, Baby." She even learned how to say Laci... well it sounded more like "Acey" but it was too cute.

The first day we were there Mikayla needed some playtime after driving across the country.

Auntie Annie went down the slide with little M.

Of course after we went down once she wanted to go down 100 times saying "slide, slide" of course she then wanted to go down by herself... very independent.

The next day the Broadbent's went to the zoo, Sean went to the last U of L football game, and Braxton and I just hung around the house.

Yes Braxton still dressed in his Cardinal gear!

That night we went out for some sushi... well Mikayla had chicken nuggets.

Of course on Sunday we were all dressed in our Patriots gear ready for the Patriots to kick some Colts butt... and they did!!

 Mikayla was exhausted after the nail biting win over the Colts she couldn't believe they almost came back.

Mikayla with Daddy

The next day we went to the FUN ZONE so Mikayla could have some fun!!! and she did.

 Braxton woke up in the middle of it and had no idea where he was!

 (Can you tell by the look on his face!)

 So Uncle Willie decided he would hold him... what a cute picture

Mikayla loved to jump on the trampoline.

That night I needed some cuddle time with Mikyala and Braxton...

The next day Braxton decided he was going to celebrate Thanksgiving early with his gobble gobble outfit.

During Mikayla's visit she carried around "baby" and definitely didn't want Braxton to play with Baby...

 (Braxton this is my Baby!)

 So when Mikayla wasn't around Braxton got to play with "Baby"

Here are a bunch of other cute picture that were taken throughout the week.

Braxton is one month old & Grampa and Uncle Eddie visit!

On November 9th Braxton turned one month old…

I tried to get a cute picture of him for the baby book and he decided to be easy on me with a smile.

Braxton is still trying to figure out just how to get his fingers in his mouth and sometimes he can't decide if he wants his pacifier or his fingers....

 

On November 10th Grampa Bill and Uncle Eddie came to visit, we had a blast and Braxton got spoiled.

Braxton listened to Grampa and Uncle Eddie tell their stories...

Then Braxton wanted to teach Grampa how to do "tummy time", it didn't take him too long to learn!

We had a great time with Grampa and Uncle Eddie, even Laci got spoiled.

Here are some other pictures of Braxton from the week.

 Braxton sleeping in the Boppy, of course one sock on and one sock off, we can't seem to keep them both on at the same time.

 Braxton getting ready for the Patriots game.

And of course Braxton laying on Laci! (she isn't annoyed at all)

The Broadbents are coming to visit this week so there will be some great pictures of Mikayla on the next blog I am sure.

Braxton's One Month Old!

Well I cannot believe today Braxton is 4 weeks old. Everyone told me time would fly but this is ridiculous, my little baby is officially out of newborn diapers and clothes. We went for his one month doctors apt yesterday and our little chunky monkey gained 2lbs in 3 weeks and grew 1.25 inches. He did surprisingly well with his shot, he let out a little cry and then was done.... that made it easier on mommy.

Over the last few weeks some things have been getting easier... sleep is not one of them... but bath time is!!

Braxton has finally learned that baths are relaxing

I think that is even a smile!!

Braxton even made a new friend...

I couldn't resist another tummy time video... mommy is not good at the camera yet but you can still see Braxton in action.  

Here are some other pictures of Braxton from the week.

This was supposed to be tummy time but someone got a little too comfortable lying on his belly. But you have to love the monkey on the butt.

Braxton is afraid he might lose his pacifier so he has learned to hold it.

Sleeping on mommy... what a cutie.

This week Grampa Bill and Uncle Eddie come to visit so we will have some great pictures next week!!

Braxton's First Halloween!!

Well we all know that a three week old baby had no idea what Halloween is, let alone what the deal is with dressing up. Lucky for Braxton he is beyond spoiled and got many different Halloween outfits to wear in the last three weeks… and I must say they are adorable.

If you can't tell from the pictures, Braxton loves his pacifier, which means mommy and daddy love the pacifier too!!!

Of course it's not Halloween without a costume so what in the world can a 3 week old dress up as....a puppy!! 

What a cute little puppy!!

Well I had to add a few pictures that I took over the last few weeks not Halloween related.

 Had to have a diaper shot!

Just Braxton being cute!
