I'm loving it...

Positioned nicely infront of the computerI love you!
He's getting taller

Loving this book

Check out that mouth full of teeth

Things that Bradley loves right now:

-Books

-Puzzles
-Shoes (ours & his)

-Computer and all of its buttons

-Doors (can barely reach the doorknob to open & shut)

-Kids CD in car

-Driving (sitting in driver's seat...starting saying, "WEEEEE"....that's a little scary!

-wasn't saying much at 18 month check-up, but in the past week has discovered a lot of new and more sounds...very exciting!

1st Professional Haircut

Before...not too sure...kind of loud and crazy
Not too bad...looking good

watching Mickey Mouse very closely...don't think he's sat this still EVER!

Yesterday, we went and had Bradley's hair cut at a kids place for the first time. We'd just been trimming and cutting it ourselves, but decided it needed an even trimming up and to help it continue growing in. So it was a little RIDICULOUSLY expensive for a kids hair cut, which took no time at all, but he did good and his hair looks good, so I guess it worked out. He got to sit in a little car and watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and then got a lollipop at the end...why wouldn't he love all of that?

All done
AHHH...the reward

We also went to the mall this week with a little friend to play inside to escape the HEAT (100's)!! While we were there we played on the playground, ate lunch, roamed the mall, played in the photo booth and rode in the little cars(strollers). Uncle Justen pushing Bradley and IsaacPhoto booth...lights and buttons for us to push

Thanks to our friend Pat for this fun toy. You put balls into different holes and they come out in different places and it makes sounds, has lights and sings songs...it's great and KEEPS BRADLEY'S ATTENTION!!! We are getting quite a collection of toys and he's only 18 months!

Happy Father's Day!

Helping me make a delicious pie for Father's Day!! He knows when I'm cooking a treat because a bowl has to come out and he gets really excited and starts to drag a chair over. It's fun that he likes to help out, but not easier or cleaner, but keeps him happy...my little helper.

Testing out daddy's shoes

They made him fall over at first, so he needed some help

Wants to be just like his daddy:)

We wanted to let Mike know that he is the great DAD in the whole world. Bradley just loves him so much. They play so sweet together and are a lot rougher and tougher than me, so that's nice that they can play that way together. Hope he knows how much we love and appreciate all he does for us. Hope you had a great Father's Day!!!

from our family pictures we had taken...you can see how much fun they have together

Swimming

Bradley figured out the thing to do, is to lay back and relax in these chairs. So that's what he's doing...RELAXING. (ignore my foot)
I love these guys

We sure had fun swimming with Mike the other day. He hadn't been with us yet this summer, but he came this time and we had fun. It was alittle later in the day, so I think Bradley was alittle bit tired, but he sure likes it. He wanted to go TO the slide, but NOT go down it, so it was hard to keep him away.

La Toltecha

Documenting our trip to this yummy place
Having fun and being silly outside

Crazy guys!

Bradley's turn to be silly

Really, more pictures?

Heather being silly. She gets annoyed when people don't put their number out where she works, so made sure to put ours out.

Kathy, Bradley and Aunt Diane (really guys?... you're smashing my head)

Sisters catching up

Munching down on chips and salsa is serious business. At first he thought his mouth was on fire and needed water, but then it didn't seem to bother him, so he kept on eating. YUM!!!

While in California, we also made a trip to see Mike's aunt, Diane. So we met her at Mike's favorite Mexican restaurant, LA TOLTECHA. When I first met Mike that's what he talked about when California/grandparents was mentioned...how great this mexican restaurant was. He found it on his mission and it's still there. It was a "hole in the wall" type of place, but since then they have upgraded to a nicer building and the food is good. BUT not the soup that Misty got:( Too bad Mike wasn't there with us. Next time my love.

Mickey Mouse Ears

Hating them and notice how I think it's obviously funny?
Pretty sure the lady who took the picture might have gotten the wrong idea from this. We had seen people all day wearing them and made alittle bit fun of them, so we needed to document it.Misty looking cute wearing her ears.

Everyone needs a picture with Mickey Mouse ears. We wanted to at least get a picture of Bradley with Mickey Mouse ears. He probably wouldn't really wear them, but at least to see what he'd look like. As you see, he hated them on his head, so another time, but we still took a picture of his annoyance with them. Probably shouldn't have waited until nighttime when he was already very tired.

More Disneyland pictures

Playing the piano, once he figured out that it really made noise.
Very pleased with his performance

Taking a ride in dumbo, well, not really, just a picture

Very happy to be holding onto these railings and stepping up and down the curb. I love that smile and to see his teeth in there is so cute. He didn't like when we had to move up in our line and he lost his railing.

Bradley & Mommy

Having so much fun, but wishing Daddy was here too.

Cheese

Watch me...

Swinging ropes and chains is fun? Right? Yes, it is!

Climbing stairs to nowhere is too, until a man tells us to get down.

He found this little step all by himself while we were waiting for someone to go on a ride.

In his own little world and having a great timeDoesn't he seemed very pleased with himself?

These pictures don't really have a central theme or grouping, so they get their own random post. BUT we did have all day long!!! It's been awhile since I've been to Disneyland and it's still a fun place to go. It'll be fun to go back one day when Bradley's older and can have even more fun.

Being creative during our waiting time. He loved Misty and Heather swinging him into Grandma's arms. Over and over until everyone was tired except for him. He'd stand infront of Misty and hold up his arms and then try to lift his feet so Heather could pick them up. So funny to watch!!
