The Erickson Family: A Visit to Grandpa and Grandma's House

The weekend after Thanksgiving, (I told you I'm behind!) we headed to Grandpa and Grandma's house for a visit. The boys love to run up and ring the doorbell! :)

Brady looked outside and saw the swing, and wanted Grandpa to take him

out to swing right away.

Jayden loves to pick fruit off the trees!

Then, he likes to eat it. We've been trying to grow a few different fruit trees for him in our backyard, but so far, we have green oranges that aren't ripening. :(

Brady loves sports!

He looks so much like Jamie!

Jayden wanted a turn in the swing, too!

Brady was just hanging out, doing what he loves to do...watch brother!

The boys wanted to water the plants.

Jayden wanted to be a fireman and use the hose!

Brady wanted another turn in the swing.

This is so cute...Jayden was pushing Brady in the swing...

Then...they switched! I love that they are best buds!

Taking a rest with Grandma

My little baby is sure growing up to be a big boy!

Jayden loves to play at "Grandpa's Park" in the front yard.

Picking tomatoes

Brady loved playing on the slide.

My boys sure do adore their Daddy!

I'm so blessed that I married a guy that is a great father. Jamie only gets 6 days off a month, but when he is home, he spends his time with the boys and I. He comes home from work, changes his clothes, and is on the floor playing with the boys until they go to bed.

Jayden loves to rough-house with Daddy! He is actually very strong!

We measured Jayden and couldn't believe how tall he has gotten. He had a growth spurt in the last few months. My chunky, little fat baby is grown up and is now tall and skinny!

Grandpa with the boys

Jayden liked playing in the hammock.

Little boy was tired. He is so cuddly.

Picking oranges with Grandma

Jayden loves to sit and look at Grandma's spoon collection. He asks questions and is so good at listening to Grandma and she explains where each spoon came from and what it represents.
