Happy Birthday Brayden

Happy Birthday Brayden. We have been so blessed havng you in our lives. We love you and look forward to watching you grow.

My Boys and their Tech Toys

Here are my boys with their favorite toys. Yes that is Brayden's favorite toy the Ipad. He can even tell when someone has it across the room. As you can see Tahoe is sad he doesn't have one.

Brayden wants to be just like his dad.

Family Pictures

For all of you that have taken family pictures you know when you are done. Brayden was done about thirty minutes into it. I am tempted to frame this one for him. We did get some good ones before this. Good thing we have at least a millon pictures of him already.

Football Season Has Started

Fall has come so that means football season has started. Can you guess who we are cheering for? I can't believe Brayden actually smiled in the picture. He is growing up so fast.

Family, Food and Fun

On July 24th we got together for our annual family reunion. We started the day at the Living Plant Aquarium, then went to Draper Park for Lunch and headed to Boondocks to play. We had a great time. Next year we are celebrating our fifth year at Bear Lake.

Feeding Time

Brayden has turned six months old and now it is time to start eating solid foods. The first night he was trying to get the concept of opening his mouth for the spoon. The second night he had it down. He even liked eating peas. I hate the fact he is growing up so fast. He is even starting to roll over a little bit. I guess I can't stop him from getting older.

Lions, Tigers and Bears, oh my!

We decided to take Brayden to the Zoo. We had a lot of fun walking around and showing him the animals. We got to see the new baby elephant. But of course the penguins were the main attraction.

Warmer Weather

We took a trip down to St. George this past weekend. The weather was nice and warm but very windy. Here is Brayden trying out his new hat and staying out of the sun.

Happy Birthday Nicole!!

Happy Birthday Nicole. There are so many things we love about you, here are just a few.

You are an excellent cook. You love to try new recipes and make some up on the spot.

You are a great aunt. You always try to make your nieces and nephews feel special when you are with them.

They way you treat Marvin means you are going to be an amazing mother when the time is right for you.

Have a great spa day and turning 30 isn't that bad. Happy Birthday. We love you!!

Tummy Time

So we are trying to get Brayden to be on his stomach and learn to hold his head up. I guess sometimes the tongue helps.

Our First Family Trip

Our first family trip was to Newport Beach, California, April 5-11, 2010. Aunt Nicole and Uncle Cassidy were kind enough to let us invade on their space. We had a great time. Brayden got to use his new stroller. We went to three different beaches and Brayden slept at a few of them. The weather was great. I got to go to one of my favorite places for my birthday, the beach. We also went to Downtown Disney and two different shopping malls. Brayden also got a new hat that we seemed to always forget to bring along. We enjoyed the week and want to thank Nicole and Cassidy for putting up with us. We look forward to the next trip to St. George in May.

Easter Sunday and Blessing Day

We had Brayden's blessing on Easter Sunday, April 4, 2010. It was a little crazy but it was nice to have all of the family and our friends together to celebrate. After that was over and the house was cleaned, we headed upstairs to pack for our first family trip.

Going for a walk

So we decided to break in the stroller today and go for a walk. It was so nice outside I couldn't resist. Brayden just wanted to sleep, so I don't know if he enjoyed it or not. He looks so excited.

Happy Valentine's Day

Got a visit from Grandpa and Grandma Stokes and Aunt Nicole today. Had alot of fun taking pictures.

Let the Game Begin.. Go Colts

Once again it is Superbowl Sunday. Colts vs Saints. I guess Brayden is cheering for the colts.

Getting bigger

Bruce is trying to get Brayden to smile. Everyday is a new effort. I think he is smiling at the fan.

New Addition and Sleep Depravation

So after six and a half years of marriage we were finally able to welcome our son. Brayden Thomas Harmon was born December 19, 2009. He is now one month old and getting bigger everyday. So I have decided to start a blog. Since I am not getting that much sleep lately I should have time to keep it updated.
