Another Braden Post

I know everyone is anxiously awaiting what happened next in our totally boring and nothing exciting happened summer, however I just wanted to pop in really quick and post a few more pictures of Braden for everyone to see.  Because, I am 'that' mom. 

I also am aware that I am spending much of my internet talk time typing about Braden.  The other 2 boys are fine and well too!  It's just that my biggest little man is doing so much lately and I am just so proud of the tiny human he is becoming!!!!

All the above can be exactly quoted for Zachary and Chase too....but for now, you just get some Braden pictures ;-)

But seriously, how handsome is this kid!?

May 2014

That was the fastest month ever ;-)

I had my last game coaching the best group of girls, ever.  And wouldn't you know it was against Grandview.

We went to another Rockies game, and the big boys got to run the bases after the game.

 We did lots of hanging around.

matching PJs

A friend gave us her sons old baby uggs

I told him he couldn't chew on the cord

And then we drove down to Texas for a visit with my parents and grandparents.  This is where the real "updating" starts I guess.  I will give you the short version...

A few things we knew: 1) Our condo was wayyyy to small.  We outgrew it long before Chase was even born.  2) With my health being so unknown, we had to get closer to my parents, before we were forced into doing something (ie moving) when we were not ready.

Prior to our trip down to Dallas, Paul started applying for jobs like a mad man, and had set up 6 interviews for 3 of the days we were down there.  Within 24 hours of the interview he had offers from every company except 1.  If this wasn't the biggest slap in the face from the universe saying 'now is a good time to move',  I don't know what could be.  We were able to weigh the options of each offer, and make (what we hope is) the best decision for our family.

Top Golf, the coolest place ever.

not as epic as last years 'USA' photo

I promise, everyone was really happy and did have a great time.

So that's that. Paul accepted a job while we were down there, which meant two weeks after we drove home, he had to go back down to start at his new position. 

Now I bet you're really excited to see how June went uh ;-)

So...it's been a while

6 months to be exact.  And oh my, have we been busy!

I will try to just give the quick updated version.  If you follow any of my social media accounts, you probably already know most/all of this, so I will try not to bore anyone (feel free to just look at the photos).  I decided the easiest way to do this is just to split the 6 months into monthly updates and just go through the photos on my computer and pick out events/things we did each month.  So bare with me over the next couple days.

Last time we spoke, Chase just celebrated his 1st birthday (can you believe he is 18 months now!).

That puts us all the way back to April 2014 -  We were able to get to the zoo a few times!

We threw a 2nd 1st birthday party for Chase for all our friends.  He enjoyed smashing and eating another cake.  And as always, it was delicious!

We took the boys to a nuggets game.

 Chase obviously had a great time.

 We relaxed and played a lot.

The boys (all 3) got double ear infections, and we learned the hard way that Braden is allergic to amoxicillin.

Nothing a little 5 guys couldn't fix though.

We dyed some Easter eggs...

 ...and the Easter Bunny Came and brought everyone a present.

We got to see the Phillies while they were in town.

Braden went to "take your kid to work" day with Paul.

The boys also got to spend a lot of time at my lacrosse practices and games.

...See you in May ;-)
