Our Stop at Multnomah Falls

As you can see, we were so glad to get out of the van. We'd been driving since 4:30 AM. Just in case your wondering, Brayden was not simply being fussy. When I set him up there, I accidently whammed his head on the sign. Yes, it was an accident, but Brayden didn't care. I felt so bad.

My Big Boy

4th of July Pics

I had Lisa take some pictures of me and Brayden for the 4th. Brayden had another idea. He wouldn't cooperate at all. He wouldn't even look at the camera. We then gave him a little time to run around in hopes it would put him in a better mood, but that didn't help either. We finally gave up. I'll try again on the 24th.

Summertime Brayden

Brayden has a great time playing in the pool at Gma and Gpa Cowans. He doesn't like to sit in the water, but he will now at least stand in it. He's so fair (white) that I have to take extra care that he doesn't burn. I'm waiting to see what the sun does to his already blonde hair.

His favorite game is to splash the ball in the water or throw the water out of the pool. Uncle Kyle is good at playing with him and splashing him. Just wait Uncle Kyle, someday Brayden is going to give you one good splash

Magnets on the Fridge

Brayden loves to play with the magnets on the fridge. At first they were all over the fridge, but after losing several they were moved to the top. It's a good thing Pa Pa is such a pushover. All Brayden has to do is go over say magnet (in his own words) and Pa Pa to the rescue. This last week, Gma bought Brayden his own magnet board with magnets for Brayden to play with. Yep, I think he's lost them all. It was a good idea anyway.

Hey, that's my truck!!

Gma put Cade into the back of Brayden's dump truck for a picture. As soon as Brayden saw he went running and yelling for HIS truck. It was all kind of funny until Brayden tried to dump Cade out. Gma had to snap the pictures really quick before Brayden went nuts. Isn't it fun to have kids???

Katy and Cade Visit

I am so excited to have Katy and Cade visiting. While Katy's husband is in training, she will be visiting us for two weeks. Cade has gotten so big. He's such a chunk. Look at his big, big eyes. He's absolutely adorable. Brayden loves to see the baby. He kisses Cade and rubs his head. Oh yeah, he also likes to stick his fingers in Cade's eyes. We have to keep watch. Brayden is a little jealous. He's used to being center of attention. Katy looks good and is doing a great job being a new mom. I'll get some pictures of Katy and post them.
