PJs

I love pictures in the PJs! I'm so used to him wearing his sleepers - he looks like such a big boy in his pajamas!!

9 months old!

Mr Bradley is 9 months old now! Crazy! He still has the 2 teeth on the bottom, rolls around everywhere, and scoots when he really wants to (not very often). He loves to baby talk, still has his "na-na-na" cry when he's sad. Some of his favorite things are ceiling fans and glasses of water :). Here are some of my favorite photos from the past month :)
The closed mouth grin is semi-new - it's either closed completely or the huge, gaping, open mouth grin that he's always had :) I can't tell which one is cuter! I think they both show different sides of his personality!Here he is sporting his natural mohawk :) and you can see those adorable little teeth!!

Sara Evans Rocks!

Mom took Mindy, Tammy and I to the Sara Evans concert and it was a blast! :) I love Sara Evans, I don't listen to a lot of country lately but she is by far my favorite country singer and I could listen to her cd anyday :) Mom and I had seen her years ago when we won tickets to her and Toby Keith - and I actually think that was the last concert I had gone to. It was a lot of fun getting to hang out with just the girls :) we had great seats and it was a great concert! Thanks Mommy!

Connor turns 1!

Mr Bradley's best friend Connor turned 1 on Sept 14th!! I can't believe he's that old already! That means that Mr B's birthday is just around the corner! My how time flies!!

Connor is such a sweetheart - he loves to snuggle and he's walking around like a pro :) They sure are cute when they get together. When Mr Bradley starts crawling I'm sure they'll get into all sorts of trouble together :)
Happy Birthday Connor - we love you!! :)

I can move!

Mr Bradley finally decided to roll over from his back to his belly on September 3rd and a couple days later figured out that if he keeps going he can actually move and get across the floor! Now he hangs out on his belly all the time which he never did before and those days of putting him on his blanket with his toys and running downstairs to put a load of laundry in are gone - it is amazing how fast he can roll! :)

He loves to be underneath the coffee table :)

The other day someone at work asked me if he'll roll towards me - the answer is no! Actually he thinks it's funny to roll AWAY from you if you try to get him to come towards you - what a stinker! I guess he's enjoying his right to choose where he wants to go :)

6 Year Anniversary

Kevin and I celebrated our 6 year anniversary on August 22nd. We had a nice day hanging out with Mr Bradley, then we all went to dinner. Mom was going to watch Mr B so that we could go to a movie after dinner but with all the lack of sleep lately I just couldn't stay up for a 10 o'clock movie (isn't that sad?). Oh well, we ended up going the next day and it was nice :) Last year the present was supposed to be wood so we got a tree. This year it was iron and/or candy. So I got Kevin an iron wall hanging that says "family" and an iron picture frame and I wrapped it in candy! Too bad this picture doesn't do it justice because you can't see how big it is! It's a month later right now and we still have a ton of candy! :) He got me a beautiful braclet with an iron heart and engraved it - very nice :)

Balancing Act...

Bradley has this thing that he likes to do lately - he sits with his legs straight out and leans back as far as he can without falling over. He puts his arms out to the sides to balance himself and he'll test how far back he can go - inching back further and further, jerking himself back up when he feels himself go too far, until finally he goes too far and falls over backwards :) It's just such a fun game!
Isn't this like a pilates pose or something? I bet he has a stronger "core" than I do! He's constantly leaning forward in his car seat too. There's just too much to see in the world to be laying back and relaxing I guess :)
