Finding our Christmas Tree

We had a great time finding and cutting down our Christmas tree for the first time! Brady loved running around following Daddy and Uncle Mark! Thanks for coming with us Uncle Mark and Aunt Angela!

Fall Fun

We had a great Fall! Brady had fun picking (and eating) apples at the apple orchard, visiting a pumpkin patch (where he tried and tried to pick one up himself), playing in the leaves, and trick-or-treating on Halloween. He absolutely LOVED his cow costume!

Our Little Sports Fan

Brady is all ready to cheer on the Brewers, Badgers, and Packers this weekend. Thanks cousin Ben for the cool Badger bibs!!

Al's Run in Milwaukee

This weekend was Al's Run/Walk in Milwaukee for The Children's Hospital. We had a wonderful day walking with our little Children's Champ! He even got to get his picture with the Marquette Men's Basketball coach and got high fives from the players! (He did enjoy the pom pom girls a little more though) . It was a beautiful day! Thank you Children's Hospital for all you did for our little champ!!!

Up North With the Van Grolls

Before school started we had a fun little vacation up North with the Van Groll family at Mike's aunt and uncle's cabin. It was a great time! Brady enjoyed swimming, riding on the boat, playing in the sand, and enjoying a nice cold treat with his cousins.

The Building For Kids

To pass the time on a hot and humid Saturday, Mike and I took Brady to The Building For Kids. He LOVED it! His favorite place to play was the area with all the balls. He loved putting them in all the baskets and watching them drop.

Eye Surgery

On June 15 Brady had surgery to open his tear duct in his right eye. It was actually more difficult for him to wait for the surgery as he was hungry and tired. He got a nice panda bear from the nurse. He did great and within 10 minutes of leaving us, it was all done! No more fake tears for our little boy!

Bay Beach

In the beginning of June we went to Bay Beach for the first time with Mason, Cole, Henry, Ben, Kamden, and Sawyer. Brady had a great time and absolutely loved all the rides!

Outside Fun

Brady is having fun riding a bike at Grandma and Grandpa Van Groll's

Brady loves his new slide. He is now able to climb up all by himself! Thank you Grandma and Grandpa Thiede!

Brady had a great time helping Daddy put the wagon together. He absolutely LOVES riding in his wagon...especially if it means we are going to the park!

Easter Weekend

Brady had a great Easter weekend! At Great-Grandpa Holschbach's he got to see a digger and stand in the bucket! On Sunday he found his very first Easter basket full of goodies and enjoyed a day with the Thiedes and Van Grolls. He especially enjoyed playing with the blue hard boiled egg...he didn't want to give it back!

A Trip to Madison

A few weekends ago we made a trip to Madison to celebrate Aunt Allison getting her blue coat for vet school and cousin Cole's first birthday. Brady had fun jamming to some tunes on the way there, swimming with Daddy and cousin Ben (Aunt Cheryl and Sarah swam too), and going out to dinner and getting to sit in a fun chair. I think he enjoyed running up and down the hallways of the hotel most of all.

Happy 1st Birthday!!!

Brady had a super 1st birthday! He LOVED the frosting and the cake. He is so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends who love him!

Brady LOVES dancing to the i-pad commercial. Check out his dancing moves! (Sorry about the view being side-ways. I couldn't figure out how to flip it)
