Braden's one-year pictures

Burlington, VT, here we come!!

So exciting...we love our new home, Burlington, Vermont!! We're not moving for a few months, but we went there this week and got a house. Here's us playing in the front yard--grass is a new thing for Braden! The house is pretty big...you'll have to look close to see Braden in this one!!

Braden, the Ringbearer

What a BEAUTIFUL wedding Aunt Jackie and Uncle Bill had! They were married on August 9th at Rancho Capistrano. Mommy was the matron-of-honor, Braden was the ring bearer! We're still awaiting the photographer's pics (with pics including Scott!!), but's here's a cute one of Braden going down the aisle, of my Dad and the GORGEOUS bride, my new Brother-in-law, giving my toast, and dancing w/ my brother, Matt.

Braden's Birthday....WEEK!!

Braden turned 1 on August 17th...but we began celebrating on Aug 8th! Big Bday party at Grandma Pat's and Grandpa Carl's, followed by a Bday party with the Seigfrieds celebrating Braden and Ben's #1 (and lots of NY restaurant "happy birthday" cakes/ice cream, etc.)

Braden loves NYC!!

What a fun weekend w/ the Seigfrieds and Adams! We met up in NYC, took a carriage ride through Central Park, checked out FAO Schwartz, took the subway to the Statue of Liberty, and much more!!

Braden's first Haircut

Today Braden had his first haircut in--of course--in an airplane chair! Here you have the before, and the after...doesn't he look like a big boy now??

Montana

This week Braden and I went to Montana so Braden could meet his Great-Grandma, Loretta, and his Aunt Denise. He also got to visit the 20 horses and 7 dogs they have at their house! As you can see, Montana is just gorgeous in the summer, and we loved going out on Lake Flathead and visiting Glacier National park.

Braden's week in California

What a fun week! Braden got to show his love for Auntie at her Bridal shower, play piano with Grandma Linda, hang with the kids at Michelle's baby shower, and even met the pet pig Abby!

Grandma Linda and Grandpa Greg visit Phoenix

This week Grandma Linda and Grandpa Greg came out to visit! The pool was finally warm enough, so we had a great time swimming and even found time to get some wedding favors made for Jackie's upcoming wedding :)

Crawling around

Braden's scouching is now looking more like crawling!

Braden's first visit to Marco Island!

Braden (and Stephannie and Scott!) had a wonderful time with Grandma and Grandpa Seigfried this week in Florida. We had tons of fun on the boat, swimming, and going to the beautiful beach...Braden's first time, and you can see how he loved the sand :)

Disney w/ MIchelle and Charlie

We had a great week with Michelle and Charlie at Disneyworld: the Magic Kingdom, at Epcot, the Animal Kingdom, and MGM Hollywood studios :)

Braden's first swim!

Braden loved the pool in Florida and being taught by his girlfriend, Charlie.
