Balls, Books and Broken Glass

This little guy really loves balls, cars and books!  He can always be found crawling with one or two around the house.  I thought he was busy and used to get into stuff...oh no now it is double time.  In a normal day in our household you can find the kitchen floor covered in Tupperware and a happy baby sitting in front of the drawer, or maybe he has crawled into the bottom of the entertainment center and is crying for help because he has climbed in and doesn't know how to get out.  There is never a dull moment.  He walked three steps today and we often find him standing until he realizes he isn't holding onto anything.  It is hard to believe he is going to be one in a couple of weeks!

Experiment begins like this...

...and here is the result day one!

Same result on day 2!

A quiet moment

We have enjoyed being home the last couple of weekends going out for ice cream, going to the park with friends, playing in the little pool and just being together.  I made a chalk board for the kitchen, which I have wanted to do forever.  Along with other news the guy that does the lawn, Mr. Gus, broke our back door when the weed eater  regurgitated a rock!

Yay chalkboard!

28 and counting!

I just celebrated my 28th birthday Saturday.  What I have learned in a year...you can't get time back so live every moment with no regrets, nothing is more important to me than my family, becoming a mother has been the most fulfilling thing I have ever done, having a quiet time is a vital part of my day, I have gotten really good at being productive with my time (being productive, not just busy), you make new friends when you are mom because of the things you share in common, with true friends it doesn't really matter where you all are in life..it just works, I don't care that much about stuff for me as I do for that 20lb bundle of joy, I have learned to enjoy the quiet moments because there are not as many of them, I have learned how to utilize the time after baby has gone to bed to enjoy relaxing with my husband, I hardly ever watch TV but am still a romantic and my guilty pleasure is watching the Bachelorette (in bed on Andrew's I-pad...YES I am glad you bought it babe), and I love my dog but he definitely comes second, and family time with Bradford is my absolute favorite time!

Love my new necklace babe!

Love those curls!

Brady always with a ball!
