Uh-Oh!

Brayden accidentally broke our laptop yesterday. He was upstairs playing with his cars (we thought in his room) but he was actually playing on the desk and smashed a car in between the screen and the key board. Now our screen is broken in different peices! (Hopefully it is covered under the warranty!) So needless to say, we will not be able to email a whole lot for now until it gets fixed...

Kid Rock Concert

We went to the Kid Rock concert last night and it was awesome! We really love his new album. He has a few ballads on this CD that I am sure will be classic songs years down the line. We had ok seats, but were kind of at an awkward angle. As he was getting into his 2nd or 3rd song this girl approached us and asked us if we wanted to go sit up front! We were like "heck yes!" It was so awesome! We were literally 3 rows from the stage! There was this little boy in front of us that actually got his attention and later in the show, Kid threw him one of his drum sticks! Pretty cool! He sang a few of his popular older songs, but we were happy because he mostly sang from his new album! It will be a night that we will never forget.

Brayden goes potty!!

I was off on Monday, so I thought I would work with Brayden a little on his potty training. He ended up going potty 3 times that day on his "big boy toilet!" He is so funny, he waits until I leave, then he will go. He gets nervous if we are standing there. He of course had to talk to Nanna and let her know all about it :) Such a cutie. It will be so nice once he is out of diapers for good!

Brooke is 6 months today!

I cannot believe that our baby girl is already 6 months! To think that in just another 6 months, she will already be a year, is crazy! She certainly has developed her own little personality. It was so fun. This morning she and Brayden were playing so cute. He kept giving her kisses. I just had to get some pictures!!

Nate has lost 46 lbs in 4 months!!! Doesnt he look GREAT?

He wanted to show off his love for his idol Kid Rock

He is super excited because we get to go see Kid Rock on Oct. 23rd!! Go get the new cd "Rock n Roll Jesus." Its awesome!

We are such a great couple huh? :)

Just being goofy hanging out...

Brooke's crawling!!!

Check it out! Brooke is crawling now. Neither one of the kids have crawled "normal," but it is fun to see her get so excited over a plastic bag! :)

Schnepf Farms

Last night we went to Schnepf Farms. It has this little festival going on this time of year. The kids had so much fun! Brayden and Abby got to ride on the ponies! Abby seemed like a natural little cowgirl! I was surprised at how much Brayden enjoyed it. I thought he may have gotten scared. It was hard to capture a good shot because they were going around pretty fast!

I think Brayden's favorite part of the night was getting to pet and feed the goats! One was jumping up on me and eating my shirt! They did the same to Chelsea and Abby. I think Abby got a little scared though.

The food was great there! We had chilli and pulled pork sandwich and fresh corn on the cob! It was all so yummy! Nathan bought this HUGE bag of kettle corn! I have no idea how he is going to finish the whole thing.

At the end of the night we took a tractor ride out to their 10 acre corn maze that from the sky is a picture of Steve Nash. We didnt end up going through the maze because the kids were getting very tired, but supposedly they had some deer at the end of the maze that would eat out of your hands. As we were driving home we even got to enjoy a fireworks display light the sky.

It was a lot of fun, I really want to make it an annual tradition from here on out.

Our 2nd Anniversary

Nathan and I celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary on the 29th. He took me to a place called "Shabu Fondu." We love it! We enjoyed a few drinks and some GREAT fondu! They have this awesome cheese fondu there that we dipped veggies and bread into. For dinner, we enjoyed sirloin with a teriyaki dipping sauce. For Dessert I enjoyed the chocolate fondu. Nathan just had the cheesecake. hehe :) Nate's dad watched the kids for us. It was really nice to get away for a nice dinner.

DBacks vs. Cardinals

Nate and I got to go to the Dbacks game about a month ago. It was so fun! We got some awesome seats from a guy Nate works with. They were right on the dugout box on the first baseline. It was pretty cool being so close to all the players.

Weekend at pappa's

We went over to my dad's house last weekend to see my cousin Chrissy who flew into town for the week. It was so cool to see her. I dont think I have seen her for about 5 years!! The kids were being so cute! It was beautiful outside. Abby and Brayden were riding around in the backyard in a wagon. THEY LOVED IT!! (despite brayden's face...) I thought this picture my dad took was so cute!

Brooke's 1st TOOTH!!!

We are VERY excited because Brooke cut her first tooth on Saturday!!!! I would post a picture, but it has barely come through so we will post one when you can actually see it in a picture! So exciting!

Brooke

Brooke has been trying to crawl for about a week now. She is so funny moving back and forth! Brayden never did this, so I just thought it was the funniest thing!

Brayden is so cute!

Brayden has been talking so much lately! He is really becoming such a little boy. It is so fun to play "pretend" with him. He also really enjoys coloring and things like that now.

MoViNg CoNtInUeD

So we thought we had the house by the lady that watches our kids, but come to find out someone had "snagged" it up before we could. I was not all that upset because we found a BEAUTIFUL brand new home in Mesa, so it all worked out for the best! :) We are FINALLY done with all of the moving. Now I will just be happy to get unpacked and organized!

Jen and Nate
