Happy Easter

Bradley is pretty obsessed with Sesame Street these days, so it was easy to decide his theme for his Easter basket.
I was super excited about this Elmo doll I got him, but he was more interested in the eggs. We put a couple pieces of candy in some of the eggs, but most of them were filled with fishy crackers.


All handsome for Church. I must say, it's hard to get creative with a little boys wardrobe, so I just decided to keep things simple. If we had a girl to dress, we would be broke.

This will make you smile...

Sunday walk on the beach

It's funny how we live 20 minutes from the beach, and we rarely make it there once a month. Yesterday it was a nice afternoon, and we all needed to get out of the house, so we decided to head to the shores. Bradley is getting better about not just eating the sand, but as you can see, he still manages to get it all over himself. Oh and he picked up a dead crab the size of my fist.

sewing project

There is a new blog that I LOVE to look at. It gives me such inspiration and great ideas when it comes to my wardrobe. It's called, Sisters 4 Say More is More. They transformed a pair of plain khaki's into cute skinny khakis. I happened to have a pair of plain khaki's that I never wear, so I thought, why not?! Since, I already had my sewing machine out, I decided to give it a shot. I have to say I love how they turned out! It wasn't hard at all. Now I just need to figure out what to wear with khaki's....?

oranges

Good news, Bradley is 100% better! Thanks goodness that virus is gone. He has caught up on sleep and so have I.

Today he was biting into an orange and it was pretty funny watching his reaction. You can see it in the photos, not what he expected, but he kept going! The skin is supposed to have extra vitamins, right? Once I peeled it he wasn't that interested anymore. Oh well.

being sick is NO fun

It has been a rough few days at my house. Bradley has had a fever for the past 4 days and as a result can't sleep without waking up every hour. (I've been up almost every hour the past 3 nights, which is why you don't see make up on my face and my hobo clothes) On Saturday he got so warm we almost took him to Urgent care, but he cooled down after his nap. You can see how red his face is in these pics because of his fever. He seems to be doing better, but is still a little warm. His Dr. said to give it one more day, so I'm trying not to worry. I just want him to get better!

want to hear something gross?

Today at the park Bradley put a snail in his mouth. Yes, I said SNAIL! So I had to get it out with my finger and lets just say I was pretty grossed out.

i love love these two boys

What would I do without my sweet husband and my little angel? I can't imagine my life without them. Bradley loves his Dad more than anything and I couldn't have asked for a better Father to Bradley. (sorry for the sappy post)

how cute is this?

So at the moment I am trying to spruce up my boring bookshelf in my room, and as I was looking for inpsiration online, I saw this AWESOME little office that was created from a closet. How cute is this little space?! I love the wallpaper and aqua. If only I had an extra closet in my house...

I'm still looking for inspiration for my bookshelf, so if anyone has any suggestions I would love to hear them!

Birthday Mess :)

The bath after his cake disaster.

Pulling him out of his chocolate high chair.

Messing boy!

Bradley's good looking Dad :)

yum, yum, yum.

Before the mess :)

His gift from Grandma Lauper! He thinks it's like his walker, so he pushes it around the house like it has wheels...haha.

Fun books from Grannie and Grandpa Maxwell! You know how he LOVES his books!

My sweet angel. I can't believe I have a toddler now!!! Am I old enough to have a toddler? Bradley had a wonderful birthday. Lots of love, gifts, and cake!

Happy Birthday Bradley!

Today Bradley is 1 year old!!!! Do I really have a 1 year old? I can't believe how fast this year has gone. I'm a little sad that's he's growing up so fast, but I am more excited to see him learn and develop as a little guy. I feel so blessed to have his sweet spirit in our home. He makes me a better person everyday and I wouldn't trade him for the world. How did I get so lucky? Happy Birthday my sweet sweet Bradley! I love you!

a couple photos from Christmas break

This was taken on our car ride up to Utah. Bradley thought it was so funny how Silo sat in his lap!

This was the night we went to temple square. Maybe I was a little too worried Bradley wasn't warm enough?
Sorry I didn't take more pictures. I was too busy enjoying my Mothers cooking, playing games with family, and watching the cousins play. I miss Utah already!

Dear Santa...

You know how when you see Santa holding a baby, they're usually crying their eyes out because they don't know who this strange man is with the white beard? Well, Bradley wasn't scared at all, he was SOOOO curious. He just stared at Santa and didn't smile or cry. I can't believe how big he looks in these pictures!

i can only dream...

(fyi- Bradley is napping and I am bored, so I thought I would post something that was on my mind the other day while at the mall.)

I love Christmas shopping because I love to shop and give gifts, but I also hate it because it reminds me what I can't afford. JCREW is my one true love and someday I will buy this outfit. Then again, if I had loads of money I don't think I would spend this much on 1 outfit, but its fun to dream. What are some things you would buy if money was no object?

my little reindeer

Thanksgiving

June and Bradley. They were best buds all week!

Bradley got caught in the toy bin. It was sad, but pretty funny.

At dinner with Adam and Aaron's friend Blair.

Aaron, Blair, and Adam.

Bath time with the cousin!

Myself, Michelle, and Jenny with the babies.

I wish I took more photos during Thanksgiving break, but here are some I took. We drove up to Danville for the Holiday and I must say I LOVE it up there. I love the weather, tall trees, and the feeling I get when we visit. I have to say, I think I'm a northern California girl at heart :)
