I really like to color, mom says "paper only" but I failed to listen.....

But these colors look so good on me, Mom!

At the Wildlife Experience

Opening up Auntie's present- Red the firetruck from "CARS".

Auntie Jenica's here!!

My sister flew in for work this week and was able to spend Wed-Monday morning with us. We has such a great time. We went to a Pumpkin Patch (which took 3 hrs of driving to finally find - long story), and we took Brayden to the Wildlife Experience (loved!!) but mostly just got to spend time together. Also, on Wednesday night my friend Ginny from Minneapolis also came to stay with us for the night. And earlier that week our friend Dustin, also from MPL, came to town for work. Lots of visitors and lots of fun! Here are some pictures from the last couple weeks:

Wow, a guitar!!

Finally, at the Pumpkin Patch!

So many to choose from.....

"Look at Me"

Brayden's new favorite sayings are....."Look at Me", "Stop it" (not liking that one so much), "UhpyDuhpy", and basically is repeating every word we say.....need to be extra careful! He's growing up so fast. This week at school we also had a a huge break-through. Every time I would leave Brayden at school he'd get really clingy and cry a little when I would go and when I would come and get him he was having so much fun he didn't want to leave. So I knew it wasn't that he didn't like it. This week, Miss Rachel took him to the swings and he said "Bye Momma! Momma be back"! I was so proud. She says he's really blossomed this week in school by being more outgoing, helping his friends and participating. Our little man, growing up so fast.

Not too many pictures this week but here are a few:

"Look at Me!"......gotcha Mom!

Thomas the Train!!!

Friday morning Brayden and I went out to Golden to the Colorado Train Museum to see Thomas the Train. Wow, all he could talk about on the way out was Thomas.......Mommy got lost, low on gas, and a wreck trying to get to our 8:30 train departure.........we were late. Mommy was in tears thinking she was late and that her little boy wouldn't get to ride Thomas (sold out all weekend) but the ticket handler at will call must have known that I was on the edge and he put us on the 9:15 train (THANK YOU!!!). We had a great time. Brayden was in heaven seeing all the trains. There was a firetruck that he got to sit in and a petting zoo (a "mean goat" head butted Brayden right into the poop, it was lovely). Sorry no pictures of that one.

Can't stop looking at the train...

Thomas!!

Me and Lego sculpture of Thomas

Kim and baby Teya came over the other day. Brayden just loves her.....he was calling her Sweetie. Very Cute!!

Hey, just playing in the sand.

Great Grandma and Grandpa Downs in town!

My grandparents were in town last week. Grandpa Ron had a telephone convention so it worked out perfectly. Sunday night we went downtown and took a horse carriage ride. Brayden sat in the front with the driver and absolutely loved it. Hank, the horse, was quiet a hit! Monday night was Grandpa's 71st birthday so they had supper at our house. It was so much fun to have them visit us!
