Cousin Brayden

Graycen (and I) had a wonderful weekend – we had a visit from Grandma, Auntie Amy and cousin Brayden.  We were able to enjoy the wonderful sunshine weather this weekend with an outing to Bothell's very adorable Country Village to feed the ducks and do a little shopping.







I was a little worried that Brayden, who had been anxiously awaiting the arrival of his cousin, wouldn’t be as excited to meet her once he figured out that babies can’t do a lot.  But, I was wrong!!!  He instantly fell in love with his cousin, and referred to himself as her “big brother” multiple times.  Graycen was just as quick to return the love.  She was so calm and content when Brayden was near.

He was a little nervous about holding her at first, but by the end of the visit was holding her on his own (without a pillow).


Brayden was such a helper during his visit. He helped me change diapers, by taking the diapers from the drawer and opening the Diaper Genie lid when we were ready to get rid of the diaper.

He helped entertain Graycen while on her activity mat – he shook the rattle, and showed her all of the toys in her toy bin.





Although he was willing to play with her newborn toys this time, he was adament that he would not play princesses with her -Spiderman or Iron man, only.
