California Bound!

Breydon does great on planes! He loves all the attention he gets from the other passengers!

We were lucky to be able to stay at the Dana Point Marina Inn in Dana Point! It was beautiful! Our room was like a mini apartment which worked out perfect for all of Breydon's visitors!!

This is the view from our balcony!! Good morning California!!

Breydon had the chance to go swimming for the first time!

After a little reassurance from dad...

He was off in his floating car!

I think dad may have had more fun than Breydon!!

We went out for a walk around the Marina too!

Breydon was able to visit with some wonderful people...

Bruce, Julie, Ashley, Chad, Amber, Hannah and Zach all came to visit with Breydon! We missed Lauren though!! They would be Breydon's 2nd Uncle, 2nd Aunt and 2nd Cousins.

Breydon's Aunt Christine and his cousins Johnny and Jenny came to visit too!! They stayed at the hotel so we were able to visit with them both days!

Breydon was sharing his toys with his cousin Jenny!

We were able to spend all morning on our 2nd day with Grammy Dianne and Aunt Kim!! It was so much fun catching up and just relaxing!

So sweet!!

Visiting with Aunt Kim!!

We also were able to spend time with Grandma Sheri!! She's Breydon's Great-Grandma... but that's our secret!!

Grandpa Leo too!! Breydon just loved all the attention!!

It meant the world to us that you all made time to visit with us during the 2 days we were there!! It went by so fast! Sadly, we didn't get any pictures of Nancy Streza, Dennis, Colleen, Ryan and Julie or with Azure and Bre. Somehow Derek and Jen dodged the camera as well!! You are so sneaky!

Next time we'll take double!!

We wanted to give a special thank you to Tammy who supplied all the baby stuff!! We didn't even asked! She just made sure we had the baby swing, chair and floor play area. They were so helpful!! Thank you Tammy!! As you can see below, Breydon was more than amused!

Swinging!!

We love you all!

Presents for Breydon!!

Breydon received some GREAT gifts for his first Christmas! Thank you to all the family and friends who sent him cards and sweet presents!

While in Florida for Christmas, I took all the pictures on my dad's camera and sadly, they're having computer issues so I haven't been able to get any of those pictures. Here's a few we do have from the gifts we received after Christmas!!




Along with a Savings Bond from his Grammy Dianne, Breydon also got a Piggy Bank from Grandma Colleen and Grandpa Dennis! He is going to be a saver!! He likes when we take his daddy's coins and feed the Pig!

He just loves to stare at it!

Thank you again to everyone!!

Just For Fun!

I am SO behind on the blog! Sorry!! Enjoy the catch-up!

Charis' Step-Mom, Vicki, got Breydon this really cute Puppy Dog snow hat with matching mittens. I put the mittens on his feet for fun! We were laughing so hard! It's just too funny!

At 4 months, Breydon decided he was a big boy and could hold his own bottle and sippy cup!





Breydon't first date was with Abby, Matt and Christa's daughter! We all went to Bubba Gump's and Breydon was quite the man, with his date being 6 months older than him...

Abby (on the right) was so great at sharing everything!

Matt and Christa were able to come to Denver for Matt's work so it worked out great!! We always love when they are able to make it out for a visit!!

As you can see, Breydon had a great time! :)

Abby was already crawling and Breydon just watched with envy!

I told Breydon to take notes, but he couldn't quite keep up!

3 Months Old Today!!

Breydon is 3 months old today! He is growing like a weed and is currently weighing in at 17 pounds. It's been a very fun month!! Enjoy the pictures!







Helping dad set up his new phone...





Hiding from the camera...





A very serious conversation with Kermit...

Playing in his entertainment center...

Opening an early Christmas present from Grandma Mary!

Still opening...

Yay! Baby's first Christmas ornament! Thanks Grandma Mary!

Yelling at Puppy...

So big and strong!!

Counting down the days until he gets to see all his family in Florida for Christmas and California in January!!

Laughing at mom!

As you can see he's changing almost daily! It's a blessing to be able to watch him learn new things every day!

We look forward to seeing you all within the next few months!!

My 1st Thanksgiving!!

For Breydon's first Thanksgiving we participated in our town's Turkey Trot! It's a 5K walk/run and we got up EARLY for it! As you can see (below) Breydon was dressed and ready but not quite awake!

Yay! We made it through the finish line! We were pretty close to being last, but hey- it was our first time! Notice Breydon sporting our Turkey Trot ribbon!

That afternoon we drove over to the Thielfoldt's home for a fabulous day of visiting and feasting! (Below)

It was so fun to visit with everyone! Their bulldog MoJo LOVED Breydon and made sure whoever was holding him was doing a good job! When I wasn't looking, MoJo made sure to clean Breydon's ears for me! Thanks MoJo!

Breydon enjoyed his first Candied Yams experience! He couldn't get enough and wasn't too happy when I decided he was done!

Our first Thanksgiving in Colorado was beautiful! We saw our first snow of the year and enjoyed great company!

We hope you all had a great holiday as well!
