Brayden's 1st Christmas

Brayden spent his first Christmas with the Bergh's on the farm.
He loved everyone holding and talking to him. Christmas eve was more about the paper then the present as he loved tearing the wrapping paper apart.
Christmas Eve turned into a roaring blizzard to which the power went out. Grandpa Bergh was all ready and had the generator going shortly thereafter. Bentley & cousin Barky were happy to be inside staying warm by the fire. We stayed an extra day in order for the roads to be plowed. It was quite a storm!

PlayTime

Brayden loves to play with his puppy in bed as well as his exersaucer. But just laying on the floor sometimes seems to make everything better. :)

Real Food?

Brayden got in his Bumbo, Bib on....ready for food. He took his first bite of food today and "hmmmm"...."this is food?" A few days of weird faces turned into grunts of "more please!" He loves sweet potatoes!

Thanksgiving 2009

Brayden spent his first Thanksgiving with the Millers in Fredericksburg, VA. He took his first plane ride to Washington, DC. He did great...ate and slept the whole way. Well until we got there. Brayden decided that sleeping would mean missing some action so he just didn't do it. It's a good thing Aunt Heather makes good coffee in the morning!

We had fun seeing Mattie, Caroline and Benjamin. They are all so big. Brayden loved the activity in the house; he just laid on his blanket and watched everybody run around him.

Pat and John, Heather's parents, came and baby sat the kids so we could go to dinner. It was our first time out without the kid! We went this great pub called Capital Ale House. The food was great & they had over 250 types of beer.

We also helped put up their Christmas tree. All the kids wore their new Christmas pajamas from Pat and John.

It was fun to be with our best friends...and we had so much to be thankful for!
