Our New Life

So now with the little one my life has changed drastically! (big shocker!)

It seems like i hardly ever have time to even shower anymore... let alone actually get ready for the day. But somehow I manage! We have officially moved in with Josh's parents and are in the process of looking for a house. The market is great right now for buying, but unfortunately anyone who can afford to buy a house can see that as well so we keep getting outbid on houses. But we know that when the right house comes it will work out.

Being a stay at home mom now doesn't seem to slow me down at all. There's always another load of laundry to do, or another errand i have to make for Josh, and now another mouth to feed... a mouth that never seems to close!

Braxton is such a busy little guy! If he isn't sleeping or eating then he is constantly in on the action. He has to see everything that is going on and will cry until he has the best view. If he's awake then he is constantly moving as well. He squirms when you hold him and he squirms while he's eating. He is so much fun and we cant get enough of him!

I love his cheeks!!

Such an angel when he's asleep!

Daddy just loves his little man!



What are they looking at?

He's just so cute!

Our first family date at cheesecake factory. Braxton is upset he didn't get any cheesecake!(yes we are matching on purpose!)

I love this picture! He's so funny!

My Little Baby B.A.D :)

Grandma Darnell's first grandbaby!! Needless to say they spoil him like crazy!
Braxton only a day old.




He definately got his mom's cheeks!!! But they have gone down alot since then... not so swollen anymore!




He's smiling at me!!! sooo adorable!



His first scratch right next to his nose... I can never trim his nails enough!

Welcome Braxton Andrew Darnell!

Braxton Andrew Darnell was born Dec. 17 at 11:02 P.M. We went in that morning around 2 AM to be induced because of high blood pressure problems. At around 8:3o PM they had me start pushing. A very long 2 and a half hours later, he was here! We absolutely love our little guy, he is such a mellow and loveable boy. He loves to snuggle and absolutely loves his daddy! We enjoy being parents so much, and can't wait to see what our little Braxton will do in these years to come!


Here's your brand new daddy!!! He insisted on having a beard for these pictures... and wouldn't shave until i let him go snowboarding. Needless to say he went snowboarding shortly after.







I just love this picture of my two favorite boys!

New Years Eve, Two weeks old and he's already folding his arms!!

My little munchkin! He looked so much like me when he was born, but now he's starting to look more like his daddy.
