Wow she is five....







Who said she could get so big I can't believe my little girl is five. I remember the day I had her. They just grow up so fast she is doing great. She loves art and doing craft's. She also loves pre school and dance. She is a great helper with the baby and loves to help with anything but cleaning her room. she is a very loving child always want hugs and kisses. She loves reading and going to church. We took her to get her five year old pictures taken she loves getting her pictures taken. I can't believe how old she looks in them. We had a small birthday party for her this year with grandmas. We love her very much and are so happy our heavily father sent her to us...
Happy Birthday Kimberley...

New Born Pitchers

Me and Dan have had a lot of sleepless night's. In the last three week but you forget about all of that when you look in to your babies eyes and they smile at you. We are so blessed to have our little baby Brayden and his big sister and brother in our life's. We had an amazing lady come to our house two weeks ago to take some pitcher's of our family with the new addition. I love everyone and had a hard time picking which ones to share...

Two Weeks



This is how we sleep on Gas nights



Frist Bath

Two Weeks Old.....

Wow my little one was two weeks on Monday. He is doing good we thought he had Colic but found out he just has bad gas some night's. And those night's are not fun but better then Colic. When Brayden was born he weighed 6lbs - 9oz and was 20 inches long. When we left the hospital his weight was down to 6lbs and 2oz. At the check up he was up to 7lbs and 7oz and is now 21 inches long. Wow the boy is growing like a weed but then again he loves to eat. He is doing good starting to stay awake for 45 min at a time in between eating and sleeping. We are starting to get a schedule down. He loves his night bath's and loves to be patted on the belly. I know that sounds weird but he does. Kimberley is in love with the kid she wants to be every were he is and is always kissing him and telling me she loves him a billion times. She is a great help and will do just about anything to help as long as it deals with the baby. I wish it was that easy to get her to clean her room. Brigham loves the baby but hates all the time I have to spend with him. He is starting to act out a little it's hard on me to see that. Because for so long he was my little guy and we have a very special bond me and that kid. I am just waiting for Brayden to get a little older and to have his schedule down and I'm going to have to start taking Brigham and doing special things with him. So he does not feel so left out. The house hold has been a little crazy but stuff is starting to settle down a bit.

And The Drum Roll Is....

So we found out on Tuesday that we got the Salt Lake office this year. So that means we will be home this summer. Staying in our own home and sleeping in our own bed's Ahhhhhh. So nice I'm so excited to stay home this year I can plant flowers in my yard and I get to enjoy my own yard. There are so many things that I'm not going to list everyone of them but staying home this year is great. I have not had a summer in Utah for four years. And to know I get to stay home this year is so great. So this summer is going to be a party with friends and family so exciting....

Our New Baby Brayden....









Frist Pitcher


On Monday the 4th Baby Brayden was born at 1:13 p.m he was 6lb-9oz and was 20 inches long. He was just about the size Brigham was when he was born. We deliver at Ogden Regional. We had to stay in the Hospital for three days because I had a C- section. It was nice to have the extra help but really boring because we could not have any visitors. He is so far a happy baby, loves to nurse and is sleeping pretty good for a new born. We love him so much and are grateful to be able to have children.
Here is a little funny story; when they pulled Brayden out of me, I wanted to see him before they cleaned him off. so our doc lifted him up to show me and he peed all over Dan. It was really funny because Dan's mom had told us before we had Kimberley that dan had peed all over his Doctor. I guess the apple dose not fall far from the tree.
We got home on Thursday and the in laws brought the kids home too. I was way excited to see there reactions to Brayden. Kimberley is just in love with him she fallows me around every were and is always saying how cute he is and how much she loves him. Brigham dose not get involved to much he says he loves him and is always worried about him when he cries but other then that he is off in his own little world.
we love our new addtion Brayden James Erickson....
