Brayden playing at grandma's house

When I go to work Brayden spends the day with Grandma Becky. She has so much fun with him. Brayden is growing so fast. He is now crawling and sits himself up. I have to be careful now and make sure that the carpet is cleaning. He found a grape the other day and tried to eat it. He is also getting close to pulling himself up holding on to objects. At his Doctor appointment last week he weighed 18.15 lbs. He got weighed again a couple of days ago is over 19 lbs. He is 27 inches long. The Dr. sayed that Brayden acts like he is nine months old. He is such a strong boy. I am so proud of him. Brayden loves to play games. He thinks it is fun to go back and forth to people when they hold their arms out. He also laughs when he sees himself in the mirror. Peek-a-boo is also another game he loves to play. Brayden is a very good eater, he loves to eat anything we give him. I can introduce baby meats to him in 1-2 months. I can't believe how time flys.

My first buck!

Well I shot my first buck. It was such an amazing experience. Zach also got a buck. I spotted it for him. The buck was beautiful, it was still in full velvet. It took three people and two days to pack our camp and deer out of the mountains. We hiked up past 10,000 feet high, which was about a 5 mile hike. I was packing out as much weight as the guys were. We have been eating the deer meat the last few days. It is the best deer meat I have ever tasted! I believe that if you are going to hunt something you better eat the meat. If you aren't planning on eating it, you shouldn't be hunting it.
