Here are a few pictures from today...
Bradley loves to play with his cars on the window ledge in his playroom.  Normally he will drive his cars up and down the ledge and crash them into one another.  Today he decided to put the train track down and line his cars up to see how many would fit!  I just love watching this little guy have fun! 

Hmmm... where should I put Lightning McQueen???

There are still a few open spots...

 This may be the last post until Baby C (Bradley's name for Carson)... Yes we are still awaiting his arrival!

Funny little Story

Funny little story I just had to share... 

Today I came home from work and changed into comfy clothes, which don't all fit me at this point.  I put on a shirt that is a bit too short now and Bradley came into the room and saw my shirt.  He looked at me and said, "Help" and came over to pull my shirt down.  It made me laugh so hard!  Apparently he doesn't want to see Mommy's pregnant belly!  LOL!

Bug Fest

Today was Bug Fest at the Museum of Natural Sciences!  I figured since Bradley loves bugs, he would just love going to see all the bugs up close and personal.  There was a huge street fair outside with lots of activities and inside there were bug stations where you could actually touch all the bugs!  EWWW... I was not about to touch any of them!  I was really sad Greg had to work becuase that ment I had to keep Bradley in his stroller the whole time.  As you can imagine,  I can't really go chasing him around a museum full of people when I have less than 3 weeks to go in this pregnancy!  Bradley still had fun even though he had to stay in his stroller the whole time.  His favorite parts were the watching the Bees and seeing the Dinosaurs (which had nothing to do with Bug Fest).  I bought him a few little bugs and he loved holding on to them as we walked through all the exhibits!  It was a pretty Buggy Day~

Eww... That is not my hand holding the bug!

Look at the DINOSAUR!

The man with the bee beard!

Loves his bugs...


21 Months and No More Crib!

Last week Bradley decided to start crawling out of his crib!  One day at nap time all of a sudden Greg and I heard the little pitter patter of feet coming down the hallway... we looked at each other and thought "This isn't really happening!"  We were planning on keeping him in his crib as long as possible, but unfortunately things don't always go as planned.  So... we had to turn his crib into a toddler bed.  We also had to buy a tall gate for his bedroom door!  There had to be a way to contain him or he would never stay in his room to sleep!     It has been a rough week trying to keep B in his bed at night and even worse at nap time, but at least we are going through this transition before Carson arrives.  Hopefully he will be used to sleeping in his "Big Boy Bed" by the time the baby comes! 

Yes... he has to sleep with his blankie, an animal (normally more than one), and a pillow too! Tonight he decided to sleep with all of his plastic dinosaurs and bugs.
Poor little guy has rolled off once and we haven't bought a guard rail so we put his huge animals next to the bed. 

Things B Is Up To These Days...

  • He still weighs about 25 lbs

  • Wears a size 7 shoe

  • Wears 18 month / 24 month shorts and 24 month / 2T Shirts

  • Goes to bed around 8-8:30 it's been more around 8:30 since he's been in the toddler bed

  • Wakes up around 6-6:30... it just gets earlier and earlier

  • He has been waking up and playing in his playroom for about 30 minutes in the morning before breakfast.

  • His favorite morning cartoon is Little Einsteins... we have to watch it every morning.

  • He is putting 2 and 3 words together, a few I can think of have been... No Thank You, Mama and Dada, Dada Work, Bradley's "bed," or "food" or whatever is his, and All Done Food or All Done Baba (which he still calls it even though it's his milk in a sippy cup)

  •  He loves to read the Dr. Seuss A, B, C book along with you...

  • He just loves reading books to himself too.

  • Is learning so much everyday!

  • Still loves balls, cars, bugs, dinosaurs, and animals...

  • He actually likes to brush his teeth now!!! Yay!

  • He has a funny little personality, he is just so silly.  He will make funny noises and just laugh at himself and try to get you to laugh at him too. 
Bottom line, he is just a bundle of FUN!  We love him to pieces!

36 Weeks Prego

I am officially due in 4 weeks and I can't believe it!  I feel like I should be ready, but I keep feeling like I am forgetting something... maybe that's just baby brain.  I had my 36 week check up yesterday and found out I am still only 1 cm dilated and not ready for little Carson to come out yet!  The Dr. said he weighs about 5 1/2 lbs. right now and will probably be the same size that Bradley was when he's born (in the 6 lb range).  I will update everyone next week after my appointment!

Tuesday night I met a few girls at The Melting Pot for a little "Sprinkle Shower!"   That is probably one of my favorite places, it's just so yummy... especially the dessert!  We ate way too much, I opened a few gifts, it was just a lot of fun!  I have to thank my hubby for staying home with B so I could have a "Girls Night Out" before little Carson arrives!
