Proud.

I am such a proud Aunt. He is perfect.

Life Changing.

Ever watched anyone give birth? GROSS some might say, WHY others would say........... SPEECHLESS. The only words I can think to even come close to describing this experience is LIFE CHANGING. Last Sunday I finally got the call. (the call I had been waiting 18 weeks, 3 days, and give or take a few hours for) The excitement, the butterflies, indescribable. Almost like I was the one going in to labor...I think it was the anticipation. It did however have slightly bad timing. I was in St. George. But only for about 6 minutes after I got the call. Flew home. Not literally but almost. I wasn't going to miss this for the world! As I was approaching cedar city I get another call. Not time. UGHHHHHH. Only a 2. a 2?! Come on Sis you got to do better than that I say to myself! I swing by Candice's house to check on her...sure enough she has that look in her eye. He is coming I just know it I kept saying. I went home and went to bed slightly disappointed, but knowing deep down he was coming.....tick tock tick tock.....2:05 a.m I get the text, and I quote " There has been a WATERFALL at the Brammer house :) ) It didn't wake me up. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!!!! ( that is me screaming ) I slept through the text, unbelievable. Luckily I shortly after received a call. " Didn't you get my text?! " NO!!!! I was freaking out, for a moment I thought...did I miss it? Was I to late? I jumped out of bed through on some clothes and flew out the door. This time literally haha I don't know how but I made it to the hospital in 9 minutes. You'd think I didn't know the routine of giving birth to your first child...she was still only a two when I got there. But I didn't care, the waterfall had come which meant Kade was on his way!!!!!! 8 hours and 50 minutes of waiting, and a little pushing ;) baby Kade made his entrance in to the world. Justin Kade Brammer. November 9th, 2009. 10:55 a.m 7lbs 2oz and 20 inches. Perfect. He is absolutely perfect.

LIFE CHANGING. Boom. That's it. LIFE CHANGING.

I have never in my life even imagined I would ever witness something so amazing. Thank you, thank you Candice, thank you Justin, thank you God, for letting me witness something so truly amazing. This really has been a life changing experience for me. Something I will cherish in my heart forever.

Welcome to the world Baby Kade!

MEXICO!!!

Here are a few pics from our fabulous Mexican vacation!

A special thanks to the Bacon family, and a special thanks to Ma Bacon for being my full time nanny while we were there :)

Hi...remember us?

I know I said I'd start blogging again...I lied....summer time is always so crazy busy! It's hard to find time to sit down at the computer. I'm going to try to be better. Promise.

I'll try and update on everything....So Daxton is almost 18 months old. It is so crazy how fast time goes by. He is turning in to a little boy, no longer a baby :(. It's really sad, but exciting all at the same time. He is so much fun. t More of his personality comes out everyday. Right now he is really in to cars, trucks, and balls. He also talks a ton! It is crazy! He tells me bye bye Mama and Dada please. It's so cute to hear his little voice. I just love him so so much :) I don't know what I ever did, or talked about before him. Brandon is doing really good, busy, but good! I'm the same full time Mama, part time hair stylist, I love it that way!

As far as the fam goes everyone is doing really well. Dad's heart is doing much much better, Mom is recovering from rotator cuff surgery (which has really put a damper on my social life seens how she is my weekend babysitter haha) and Candice is still on bed rest, which is actually a really good thing. If you haven't heard she got in a really bad car accident when she was only 20 weeks along and has been contracting ever since. Luckily she is almost 33 weeks now YAY!!! So baby Kade is as good as gold. Every week he stays in is a blessing. She gets to come off of her medication on October 7th. I can't wait!

As far as the Bacon's they're all doing great! We were actually fortunate enough to go on a cruise with them the First week of September. It was so much fun! We went to Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan, and Cabo. They are all such beautiful places. We had a great time. I'll post pictures soon.

We also had some pictures taken back in July by my good friend Jen. I figure its about time I post them. Ha ha. You can check out her blog at

Lots Of Love!!!

Long time gone.....

I don't know what it is about summer, but I have absolutely no desire to blog! It's awful! So I'll try to give everyone an update....

We have been doing a lot this summer! It started off with our first "Adults Only" trip to Vegas. We had so much fun! We missed Daxton like crazy, but it was so nice to have a little break. We stayed up late, took naps, and partied our butts off! SO FUN!

Then we had a family trip to St. George for Grandma Bacon's birthday. It was such a nice relaxing trip. We were suppose to be in Mexico but the swine flu killed that vaca. The good news is its like money in the bank! Ha ha I think were going to try to go for Brandon's Birthday in September.

We have also been doing a lot of boating with YaYa and PaPa. Its crazy how much Dax loves the water. He wants to swim every chance he gets!

As far as a Daxton update, he is finally WALKING!!! He is so much happier now that he can get where he wants to go!!! He has also started mimicking everything we say, it is so cute! Here are some of his favorite words...

Uh Oh!

All Done

Hold You

Bye Bye

Dog

Hot

Juice

And last but not least S*!% its awful! I don't know where he learned it! Were trying to switch it to Shoot, but he doesn't seem to think it has the same ring to it!

Birthday Pictures

My baby is ONE!

I can't believe it. My baby is one. I no longer have an infant. I have a toddler. I didn't think i'd take it so harshly, however I was wrong.

My day started out as usually, I got up checked and checked my emails. I usually get wekkly emails from baby center, they tell you what milestones your baby should be reaching etc. Well it usuall says " your baby 9 months 2 weeks " you get the idea, well to my suprise it now says "your toddler 12 months week one" I started to cry. TODDLER? I have a toddler? It was so sad. It really is so crazy how fast time goes. You really need to take time to just appreciate the now. It seems like just yesterday we were bringing home my little prince and now he is growing up so fast.

Today he can

High crawl

Point at something he wants

Say mama, bubba, ball, dog, papa, buh bye, book

Cruise a long furniure

Clap

Wave

Give "high five"

On to his big day! It started out at little gym, it was fun, however we like Gymboree sooooo much better. Then off to breakfast at Einsteins. After that we went home for a little nap, then Daddy got off work early to join us for lunch, and some fun at Chucke Cheese. He had a blast ridding on all the toys. Then we went to Nana and Papa's for a birthday dinner . At this point he was SPENT. I had over done it :( We started to sing happy birthday and bring him his cookie monster cupcake, and that's when he lost it. Screaming, loudly. I felt so bad. But it did prepare me for his party, which was Saturday. I made sure it was a super low key day so he would be able to handle it. I had the worst anxiety waiting for it to start. We had a huge blow up jumper, in our living room mind you, a ball pit, and a whole lot of people! It was crazy! I was just waiting for him to lose it. But he didn't, he had so much fun! He played, opened presents, and was even happy when everyone sang! I couldn't believe it. It was so much fun. Thanks so much to everyone who helped make this such a fabulous first Birthday.

Happy Birthday little man. I love you more than you'll ever know.
