AMBLER OCTOBERFEST

Mommy, Daddy, Jenelle, Louie, Nona, LouPa and Brax all went to the Ambler Octoberfest today. We met Elmo, went to the Farmer's market, met a scary skeleton, saw the floating duckies and visited John Ruggiero at Jackets n Things (the place where Loupa makes all of Braxton's sports clothes). Mommy and John have been friends for a very long time and LouPa used to coach him. Braxton kept petting Elmo. Braxton also met Tiger Shulman from Tiger Karate.

SHELSHOCK VISITS BRAX

Erin and Rob stopped by Nona and LouPa's house today (the morning after Candice and Marc's wedding) to visit Brax while they were in town. Erin loved holding Brax. She can't believe how big he is getting. Braxton wore his Phillies Jersey for the last game of the regular season. The Phillies WON!!!! On to the playoffs.

A CRAZY DAY OF ATONEMENT - YOM KIPPUR

We celebrated Brax's first Yom Kippur at Baba and Poppy's house.
Brax and cousin Ella loved playing together.

Baba holds Ella, Mommy holds Brax. Brax in his PSU jammies.

We tried to take a picture of all of the grandkids but it didn't work
so well. All the kiddies were tired so we'll try again another day.

WELCOME DANA

Dana is Brax's new nanny. They are best buds. Dana is feeding Brax oatmeal and applesauce in this pic and Brax devoured it! Mommy thinks Dana is doing a great job and she's looking forward to a long lasting friendship.

PETTING GUMMY

Braxton loves petting Ellsworth (AKA Elly) and Montgomery (AKA Gummy) The kitties seem to like it even when Brax grabs clumps of their hair.

BUMBO BUDDY

Braxton likes to hang out in his bumbo chair while mommy cooks dinner. He plays with his rattle and purple giraffe - throwing them so he can watch mommy pick them up over and over again.

WOOF WOOF WOOF

Uncle Louie and Aunt Jenelle came over on Friday night to hang out. We ordered Pizza and played with Brax. Aunt Jenelle brought Brax a ton of COOL stuff from her secret Nickleodeon.com stash. And Brax loved the Bull Dog that Uncle Louie didn't want anymore (because it's not the real thing). Brax LOVED it when Aunt Jenelle would say, "woof woof woof" with the bull dog. He giggled and giggled.

TUB TIME WITH ERNIE

Brax is now sitting on the toddler side of the baby bath tub. He grabs the pages of the books when we read to him and apparently wants to read all by himself.

TEETHER TIME

Brax is now holding onto his teether with both hands. He can actually pick it up all by himself and puts it into his mouth. He sucks and chews on it.

BEDTIME CUTIE

Brax loves cuddling up in his hoody towel after bathtime each night.

BABA's TIARA

Brax loved trying to eat Baba's blinking tiara. I think this is the same tiara that she threatened to wear to our wedding. HA!

HIGH CHAIR KING

Brax is having fun in his high chair.

LABOR DAY PARTY

Cousin Mike bought Brax a groovy binky that makes him look like he's from West Virginia. The Rega ladies hold their favorite baby and Aunt Holly snuggles with her great nephew.

VEGGIE MAN

Braxton eats squash for the first time. He LOVED it.
