Happy Birthday Brady!

Brady turns 1 today! We're having a small family gathering for him tomorrow. I can hardly believe that at this time last year, I was getting ready to have him! So much has happened since he blessed us with his presence. He's grown into such a "little man." He is walking now, trying to feed himself with a spoon, and impressing & entertaining us daily with all the little things he has learned. I can't wait to see what the next year brings!!!

"I can do it myself, Mom!"...

Wreaking havoc in Walmart (he pushed this through the WHOLE store)...

Walking around at St. John's Town Center...

Santa Arrives!

Oh, where to begin? How about - "Merry Christmas!" We had a wonderful day and Santa was very good to everyone! It was Brady's first Christmas which made it extra-special for us! After opening a mountain of gifts, assembling various toys, cleaning up all the wrapping paper & boxes, & cooking our Christmas feast however, we were all starting to get a little grouchy and irritable! No one (adults and kids alike) got much sleep on Christmas Eve so it definitely started taking its toll by Christmas afternoon. After a big meal and a few glasses of wine, everyone was "good to go" again though!
