The Beach

A few months back, we took Brad to Pismo Beach for his first trip to the coast. Mom and Dad were over there for the weekend trying to rack up the usage on the motor home. Mikey was off with his Grammy and Papa (Christy's ex's parents). So we thought heck why not. Let's just say, beach baby. He loved it, he already loves the water, and now add sand and sea shells to that. Things don't get much better than that. We had bought a new camera and it shoots some video. We thought we would try it out. It did great, the problem is, I could figure out how to get the clips off the camera and onto my Mac. It would load into iMovie. Then tonight, I figured it out, so here is a short little clip of Brad in the sand and water at the beach. I had to hold him otherwise he would have been off in the water fast than an F-18 in a dog fight. Enjoy.

Bradley's 1st Haircut

We thought it was a good time to get Brad's hair cut. It was getting long and curly, he was starting to get mistaken for a girl. Now, I wanted to take him to my barber. Dad and I have been going to this guy for many years. Mikey goes to get his hair cut there now too. But, we took him to a stylist. I know, dudes get their hair cut by barbers, not stylists. It was okay though, the lady that did Brad hair also gave Mikey his first cut. Sort of a tradition thing you know. Anyway, Tammy is her name, amazing lady if you ask me. She is Christy's biggest fan at church. She never charges Christy when she gets her hair done, didn't charge for Mikey's first cut and didn't charge us for Brads either. So, Tammy, thank you so much and God bless. Here are some pictures of the event. Everything started out okay, but when Brad figured out that he couldn't get his hands out from under the cover... well lets just say he didn't like that much. Enjoy.

Bradley In His First Christmas Program

I think I may have found a way to get some videos posted on the page. If this doesn't work, I think I am going to build my own blog page. I hope I don't have to do that, it takes too long. Anyway, here we go.

This was Bradley's first Christmas Program. He did better than we thought he would do. He just sat there for the most part. But it was cool to see anyway. Here is the video.

Our Idea of Black Friday

Who needs all the crazy people, sweet sales, early morning rushes; oh yeah and did I mention crazy people. Anyway, instead of the expected doings on Black Friday, we decided to have our own fun. Cody and I along with both of our Dads went out to a shooting range about 30 minutes north of Bako. Yeah, pretty sad you have to go far out of town just to plink around with a firearm. Well, we traveled, and fun was had all around. We shot through a whole box of clays, about 100 rounds of 9mm, and 4 slugs from Cody’s shotgun. Just it some time and we just might take the commercialism out of Thanksgiving…. yeah right, whom am I kidding. Well it was fun anyway; here are some pictures of the day. (Yes I did shoot, I just ended up taking all the pictures, and no one thought to take some of me)

First Day of School

I had mentioned earlier, that Bradley started at the church daycare. We were thinking it was going to be tragic and world ending, yet it ended up working out very well. The good thing is, he was getting use to the place before he started attending. The reason is it's the same room he goes to for daycare when Christy and I are running around like crazy wild people at church all day Sunday. He seems to like it and get along with the other kids so far. The best thing about it is that it gives Mom some relief through the week and it doesn't cost us anything since Chirsty is a teacher at the school. Here are some more pictures of Bradley's first day of daycare. (We gave the camera to one of the girls in the class and she took pictures for us)

Bradley 18 Months

Yes you read the title right, Bradley is 18 months. Man time flies. Well, I thought I would post some picture of Bradley up to 18 months, just to try and get everyone up to date. The following are pictures of his first trip to Pismo Beach (with his very own Moondoggies hoodie), his first day of daycare from last Thursday (we are trying to give Grandma a brake), and some other random pictures we have taken in the past few months.

We couldn't keep him from running off to the water, he loves its.

That's my boy, who needs the toys when you have a soccer ball.

The car in behind Brad is the new one I bought Christy. I will post some pictures soon.

Just Some Pictures

He Is Walking

I wish I was able to post this earlier.  But here it is anyway.

His First Cake

Mom make Bradley's first birthday cake.  I wouldn't even know where to start in describing it for you so here are the pictures.

Bradley's 1st Birthday

Well, Bradley dug into his cake.  Not as much as we would have liked, he sure did like the frosting.  This video is only a few minutes long.  If I would have posted the entire cake eating experience, you would be watching about 30 minutes of him looking at the cake.  He did discover Oreo cookies.  Enjoy everyone.

Can You Believe It!!

Well, it has been a year.  Bradley will be 1 year old on Saturday.  He is growing up way too fast.  We are going to throw a little party at Christy's mom and dads house Saturday afternoon.  My mom is making a little train cake for him.  I will make sure to get at many pictures and as much video as I can.  I will post everything next week.

Dancin' Bradley

Almost 11 Months

We had a bbq the other day at Becky and Cody's house.  Cody's mom had come into town for a short visit.  Good reason for some q if you ask me.  Bradley has started to walk.  He is doing really good.  Before you start screaming for a video, I am working on one right now and should be able to post it shortly.

Bradley 10 Months

My mom took some picture of Bradley and most already get them through email.  However, I do have some readers that don't get email from my mom so here is Bradley at 10 months.  Yes you read that correctly, Brad is 10 months.  My mom set him down in the back yard grass.  Needless to say, he didn't like it too much.  He didn't quite no what to make of it.  He has also picked up what I used to do at his age.  I likes to go around saying whhhooooooooo, as you can see in the first picture.  Enjoy.

 

More Bradley

I am sure that most of you received the e-mail from my mom with these pictures.  But for those of you that don't my moms e-mails, here are some new pictures that she took of Bradley.  She gave him one of those gram cracker type teething biscuits.  Well, just let the pictures do the talking.  What a mess.
