Bradley Turns 1

Wow I can't believe it has been a year since this has happened. We have loved this past year having Bradley as part of our family and watching him grow into a little man. He has just started to walk everywhere in the house which means we have to make sure we shut door and make sure thing are put way. He still loves to put plugs out of there socket. He thinks it is the funniest thing, probably because of how we freak out at him. He loves to be chased and to follow his brother around. He is usually a happy boy. He is not a big talker yet, but says mom, dad, and no sometimes. He still doesn't like to eat. I think he would rather be playing, so we have to force him to eat all the time. He didn't even want to eat his birthday cake but played in it and threw it on the ground. For his birthday party we invited my family to come to the party by skyping in . Brad loves talking to them through skype. We did the traditional birthday thing pizza dinner, presents, and cake. Wes said it was the best birthday ever! I had to remind him that it wasn't his but Bradley's. I think we all had lots of fun.

I know I can be crazy sometimes

I am the first to admit that sometimes I get something in my mind and I will not stop until I figure out how to make it happen. A little obsessive?? Maybe. I am thankful that my husband has learned to just let me be. So with my latest episode, I was looking online and found a felt pay house that I thought Bradley and Wes would love to play in. They sell them on etsy for around $150 so I decided, 5 days before Brad's 1st birthday, to make one for his birthday. It was a little crazy on my part to try to get it done in 5 days but I did (with lots of help from my hubby). It was really fun and only $30 to make. I still have to make the apples/pears/cherries that will go on the tree and a few other things but I got it pretty much done by his birthday. I love how much fun Brad and Wes have together playing in it.
