Baby braiden sleeping...

OUr LittLe Mit with dada! He is so sweet, and daddy is such a amazing dada!

4 1/2 months

3 months...tummy time. I love His face. Brandon says Braiden reminds him of his papa...papa's ears. (i think B kind of had these ears too, then grew into them..cute!)

CAMPING WITH DADA!!

Brandon took brody camping with his friend Justin and his three girls. They went up country to uncle Pats ranch called "Lava Java". So neat, they made fire, hiked, slept in tents ate hot dogs and got to be it the beautiful maui outdoors! No mom on duty so brody told me he have hot dogs for breakfast with donuts. "so cool mama. Don't worry mama, i'll take you up sometime." Then he went on and on telling sissy about all the animal he saw up there..... When i asked Brody was his favorite part about camping was, he told me "being with daddy, he is my best friend."

Family & pregnancy photos

Ok, lets be honest. Getting family photos are hard. With every child it gets harder. I was bugged for months from family and friends on the mainland asking for prego shots. My mom for one, never saw me pregnant. The more i thought about it..this would be my last pregnancy and even if i don't like being prego i need something for the baby book and easter card.

This was my Favorite photo...

we used on the card! I love it

I still look at these and think "do i really live in maui" and "am i really having a baby here?" YEAP. Thanks Brandon for having a great eye with the camera.

I wish i could thank your papa. love you honey!

Brandon's Jeep!

Well, sad to say but we sold the truck! Lot of good memories: remodeling house, mission trips, hunting trips and bring home brody. It funny how vehicle  have of way of becoming apart of our lives. We are on a two year plan, then most likely buy another truck. But in the mean time if you have to cruz around maui in something why not a JEEP!  

And yes, brandon had already been off roading!

Brooklyn's come get messy party was lots of fun! Painted, made play dough, jumped in a bouncy...(she did not like it, but brody sure did!) And had strawberry shortcake, her fav!

I love this pic!
