Happy Father's Day, Bradley has a new trick!

Hey everyone,
As Amelia explained, we've been a bit busy! Nonetheless, I wanna wish you all a Happy Father's Day, today! I also wanted to show you Bradley's new trick. He now knows how to safely get off the bed, not just fall off, he can let himself down, so here is a lil' video, oh and you'll be excited to know that he is starting to stand on his own for a few seconds at a time. here's the video!

A Busy few Months

It has been a few busy months!! We just bought a house and will be moving in about a week!! Lee graduated College and got a new job at a great place. He is designing software training cds. Bradley has been growing like crazy and is cruisin the furniture and crawling all over the place. He has been getting into everything and trying to play in the toilet and climb up the stairs. He is almost 11 months old!! I cant believe that it has almost been a year since he was born!! I am still at Staples but now working part time so that I can spend more time with Bradley. We have just been packing up everything in our house so that it is easier to move when Friday comes. I can't believe that we have so much stuff!! Our new home is in Cedar. It is a brand new condo with granite counter tops and tile floors and nice carpet. The color scheme is exactly what I wanted to have for my house and I dont have to do any renovating or painting!! It is 3 beds, 2.5 baths and a cute little backyard. It is great because we are moving right next to our friends from the ward that we are in now...they just moved to their new place like 2 or 3 months ago. And there is a great park that is 8 condos down from our condo so there is a place for Bradley to stretch his legs when he is older. I am just so happy to have found a great house for a great price!!
Soon I will post pictures of the house and us since Bradley looks different every week!!

4 Generations!

This week, my Great Uncle Billy and Aunt Sharon are visiting my parents! And Here is a Picture of the 4 Generations of Family here! My Great Uncle Billy, who is My Grandma Barb's Brother, My Mom, Me, and little Bradley!

A Mini Surprise!

Well, My Mom has a new baby Mini-horse! Her name is Dakota, or Kota as we call her. She was a total surprise! We didn't even know that the Mom, Sweetie, was pregnant. You see, Sweetie hasn't been able to breed since we got her and Shadow (The Daddy) 5 years ago. She lost alot of weight a few years ago because of teeth problems, so we had her on a high protein diet to help her gain weight. Well she apparently got pregnant shortly after she started gaining her weight back. You couldn't even tell because she didn't look any fatter than the male! By the way did you know horses are pregnant for 11 months! Wowzers! anyway

See how Tiny!

Kota weighs a bit more than Bradley, but she is about the same height as him!

She is kinda shy here, but she is really friendly and loving with people!

Easter Pictures!

Hey Everyone! it has been too long! Life has been so crazy and full of adventure with little Bradley! He is growing like a weed, he has teeth poppin' up all over! He is just such a great boy! Here are some pictures of our easter egg hunt with Jon, Cassie, and little KJ!

Two little Cute boys!

Happy Easter Bradley!

KJ is checkin' out his Dad's funny eyes!

While hunting eggs, we found a little frog (it's on Jon's hand) KJ loved to look at it, but he did not want to touch it!

Our Idaho Trip

It was fun to go and see the Olympics but it was such a LONG LONG LOOOOOOOOOOOOONG Trip!! Bradley hates the car seat anyways so I was worried about him being happy in the truck for such a long time. By the end of the trip he seemed to do better in the car than he ever had before. So I guess the long hours in the car and the screaming child some of the time was worth it because he doesnt seem to mind being in the car to bad...now it is just getting him to like getting in the carseat and getting out of the car seat.

While we were traveling up to Idaho we found a town with my maiden name Holden!!

Bradley really liked to drive the car. He was so happy to get out of the carseat and start driving the car.

after Chrissy won the Gold.

We went to see "Paul Blart, Mall Cop" while we were in Boise and there was a trailer for the next Harry Potter movie and Bradley was totally amazed with the commercial. I think that we have to take him to that movie because Bradley loved the trailer.

Here is Bradley with his cousins William (Liam) and Alex and his Grandpa Wiley. Liam is a little less than a year older than Bradley and is only like 2 inches longer and 4 lbs. heavier than Bradley. It was so fun to see those two kids playing with eachother.

This is Todd (a figure skate) who came and wanted to hold Bradley.

He was such a great and funny guy.

Bradley trying to drink the Diet Coke. He seems to be trying to eat everything now a days.

Bradley after the Closing Ceremonies looking like a Homie. He was so tired because he couldnt sleep in the ceremony (it was too loud) as soon as we got in the car he crashed and had his own sleeping mask.

I told you he was starting to chew on everything. I did wipe it down with a wet one and then a diaper wipe so I wasnt letting him just eat the table without cleaning it!! This was at the Red Iguana in Salt Lake. It was DELICIOUS!!

Our sweet little girls (our adopted nieces) that we got to see while in Idaho. This was the first time that they got to meet Bradley and oh how they loved him.

Special Olympics World Winter Games

We were able to go to the Special Olympics World Winter Games in Boise Idaho. We got to see Lee's sister Chrissy compete in the Figure Skating. She won Gold in her division and we were so excited to see her and her competition. It was the first time that I get to see her perform! It was such a fun time that we had with all of our family!
