2004 Ross Family Reunion - Brayden 13 months old

He learned to walk on this trip and there was no turning back!

Every minute was filled with family, cuddling, laughter, and fun.
He was even smiling when he first woke up...
 

I don't think those blue eyes will ever stop capturing my heart!



Hot dogs with Mom.
That portable booster seat was our #2 must have item. :)

Brayden with uncle Paul.
He took his first walk for Paul! All the way from the table to the buffet table...10 steps!


The 2004 reunion was so great for Brayden! He got to meet most of his family, hang out with the other little ones his age, and be surrounded by folks who love him. I know that he was very missed for these last two reunions. I am sure he will be super excited to come to the next one and see all of his family again!

Bath time was the best... he could stay in that water until it was cold and be was happy as a clam. That bathring was our savior. It went EVERYWHERE we did. There was no toy or baby necessity that came anywhere close to being as important as that ring. He could have the water nice and deep and bubbley when he was in there. He would sing, eat bubbles, and splash...and I would fall deeper in love every night at 7pm.

Oh Baby!

He had my nose, my cheeks, and my heart






And still does...
