brady cole's christmas play

2011-01-02T20:00:00.000-08:00

he did such a good job and we were so proud of him! he loved every minute of it because he loves the attention. sometimes i wonder if he's gonna be our entertainer. santa brought an acoustic guitar and yaya and pawpaw bought him a paper jamz one and the boy has been playing them nonstop since christmas. he even asks me to put it on music videos instead of cartoons so he can be like brad paisly :)

Thanksgiving

2011-01-02T19:46:00.000-08:00

on thanksgiving morning, we decided to pack our bags and head to b'ham. we surprised buger's family @ clint and stacey's house right before thanksgiving dinner. we're so glad we did too! we had a great time visiting and seeing everyone and enjoyed our 2 night stay @ the wynfrey hotel also. we got a little shopping done and just enjoyed the change of scenery.

our layla bug.....

2011-01-02T18:50:00.000-08:00

turned one on november 10th! as you can see, i'm a little behind, but just wanted to talk about this little girl. she is totally full of life and we have enjoyed watching her grow over the past yr. she started taking steps @ 101/2 mths and was walking @ 11 mths. she babbles alot,but as of now, can actually say...mama, dada, bubba, baby, bobble (bottle), uh oh, bye bye, yaya, paw paw, E (for lexi), nigh (for night night, her blanket), papi (paci), cooee (cookie) and tant oo (thank you). she loves her big brother and her sweet giggles will definitely put a smile on your face. she is always on the move and very busy, but loves to be held with her night night when she's tired.she's a snuggle bug like her big brother and her paci is a must too :)seems to be more lately b/c of those stinkin molars that are giving her a hard time. she currently has 9 teeth and swollen gums! time has just flown by and i still can't believe that she is 13mths old. she's so much fun and we look forward to her growing and changing into a little girl. time just needs to slow down a little......

corn maze fun!

1st day of 4k

2010-11-17T19:59:00.000-08:00

the 4k program @ calvry christian school has been wonderful for brady cole this year. he has learned so much and has come a long way just since august. he's so eager to learn more and amazes us everyday! we're so thankful for his teacher and feel like he's gonna be well prepared for "big school" next year because of her.

trying to pick up where i left off

2010-11-17T19:53:00.000-08:00

sorry to my blog followers that like checking the blog for my lack of "blogging." it's been since august, so the above picture is of layla rae's 9 mth check up and brady cole's 4 yr check up. both are growing so fast. layla rae was @ 22lbs and brady cole @ 41 lbs. he was 41 1/2 inches tall also and is aware that he only has another half an inch before he can ride the rides where mickey mouse lives :) we also decided to get layla rae's ears pierced on the same day. she's done great with them and not even bothered them one time. it's been approx 11 wks and we can now change her earrings out, but we're waiting on her daddy to buy her diamonds :)

fun @ kangaroos

2010-08-24T19:05:00.000-07:00

is loving his new 4k program that he recently started and likes bringing home his smiley faces in his folder to make mommy and daddy smile :) today, he took an "all about me bag" to school that had 5 things in that he liked and got to tell his classmates all about them/him. he took an alabama football b/c he like football and likes to say "roll tide", a picture of him and his 9 mth old little sister layla rae who is starting to get into his toys, gummies for his classmates b/c that's his favorite snack, grave digger monster truck b/c we all know he loves monster trucks and his chocolate bunny that smells like chocolate that he likes to snuggle with. his teacher told me that he did a great job telling the class "all about him" and he was so excited about it too. our little man is growing up...

letson's grandmother "housie" (who bc calls his grandmother too) was visiting a couple of wks ago, and had sprayed letson's hair green when we went to visit them. of course after brady cole saw letson's hair, he had to have his the same way. so, here they are with their cool green hair!

yep....i think i'm over a month behind on posting pictures. i'm gonna try my best to catch up. we've been pretty busy around here lately...sorry to grandaddy, nana, kaka and all my other followers. brady cole and layla rae are both doing great. brady cole is about to start his new 4k program, in which he calls "big boy school," and is so excited about it. layla rae is still sweet as can be, but just our little wild woman! the girl cracks us up everyday, she is busy busy busy! she goes for 9mth checkup tomorrow and brady cole goes for his 4 yr also. i'll let everyone know how that goes....

she's only been crawling for 2 wks..she should not be doing this!

2010-07-08T19:45:00.000-07:00

a couple of weeks ago, the kiddos and me packed up and headed to b'ham for a quick visit to see grandaddy, granny, nana and pawpaw bo and then on to visit and stay the night with abbey for a night. we had fun going to dinner w/ abbey and staying the night w/ her. brady cole loves her very much!!! the next morning we headed out to lake martin along w/ staci, trevor and andrew to stay at jenn and rj's house on lake martin. we had a blast and just enjoyed hanging out and catching up w/ one another even if it did seem like we had lots of kiddos to keep up with :) it was great and brady cole had so much fun playing with the boys and swimming in the lake. layla rae was such a good girl on the trip too and i think she liked flirting w/ jax and andrew :)

while jessica and ryleigh were down, we let ryleigh and bc build them a bear. brady cole is always up for build a bear and they had fun :)

waterville

2010-07-05T10:18:00.000-07:00

i'm a little behind on blogging and gonna go back to the beginning of last month. we've just been a little busy. jessica and ryleigh came to stay and visit with us during brady cole's birthday weekend. we had a great time and look forward to them coming back again. considering we're not spending much time at the beach this year b/c of the oil, we bought season passes to waterville. i think brady cole would go everyday if i would let him.

7 months old!

2010-06-10T18:33:00.000-07:00

can't believe this little poot turned 7 months old today. in these pictures, her yai yai is letting her lick icing from big brother's b'day cake off her fingers and i do believe she liked it. she is such a sweet baby and i often wonder where she gets it from :) i'm serious, the girl is always content no matter where we are and always smiling. i think crawling is in the near future, even though i don't mind if it takes her a couple of more months. she has been getting up on all fours and rocking back and forth for the past couple of days. she's a good eater and pretty much likes all fruits and veggies except for peaches, green beans and peas, so i don't think that's too bad. she's really liking the mixed baby food now. she's loves apples&carrots and the squash&pears. i think those might be her favorite. i'm not gonna admit that she's a daddy's girl quite yet, but she does light up when he walks in the room and all her attention is focused on him. it's so funny, but it's like all of a sudden, i don't exist. we'll see how that works out. the passed 7 months just seem to have flown by, but i'm definitely trying to soak up every minute with both of them.during the summer, i'm working 2 16 hr shifts during the week days, so i'm enjoying spending 3 days w/ them. brady cole is loving it too. he now thinks since we got family season passes to waterville that we should go everyday no matter what.

yes they are

our cute cowboy

2010-06-03T15:57:00.000-07:00

will be 4 on saturday! can't believe it, but it's true! he will be having a grave digger party on sunday afternoon and is quite excited about it. i have to share what he said in the car this morning. we were at a red light in foley and he told me it was taking too long, and i totally agreed. foley red lights seem to do that sometimes for some reason. after it finally turned green, he said "mama, i think they need to get somebody to change the battery in that red light." i thought that was so cute, so i wanted to share.
i have lots more pictures to share from this past wk/end. buger turned 31 on friday and lots of family were down for the long wk/end also. we got to spend a little time w/ them and bc got to play w/ tay, camden, and coden. i'll save those pictures for my next posts.........

a little swinging before the rain out

2010-06-03T15:37:00.000-07:00

the big boys got a go cart ride in and some swinging in before the monsoon came saturday night while jax and layla rae just hung out and smiled.

little entertainers

2010-06-03T14:37:00.000-07:00

we recently spent some time w/ our buddies and enjoyed some beach time, dinner at lulu's and the track. brady cole loved playing w/ aiden and austin. it just never seems long enough when we all get together b/c it ends up being just a short day or two. hopefully we can make it to the lake soon. the above pictures are the big boys playing and entertaining us (dancing) while we're eating at lulu's. they are so funny. austin even got up on stage with the band. i really do think that boy might be an entertainer one day...he's so funny! i think brady cole wore the cowboy hat he has on for 2 solid days...he loves it! when we were coming home from the beach on saturday, we saw a man on the side of the road selling cowboy hats, so of course we stop and purchase each of us one including layla rae. i told buger we needed to take a family picture of us in our cowboy hats, so hopefully i can get one and share it soon.

happy babies

she definitely knows what to do when i get it out now. she just smiles and opens her mouth wide open. maybe it's because she's had one in her face for 6 mths. she gets it now :)

layla rae and new shoes

2010-05-21T15:21:00.000-07:00

she looks so innocent in these pictures and i love them. i just had to take a picture of her new zebra shoes too. i love them and i think she loves them just as much. more than anything, i think she'd like to put those flowers in her mouth :)

i just love this little face

sister enjoying the zoo too

2010-05-16T18:50:00.000-07:00

this is what she did while we checked out the animals. she was loving knawing on her stroller and come to find out it was bringing her much relief. when we got home and i was laying her down for a nap, i noticed a tooth had broken through. that explains the runny nose and i guess the chompin on the stroller did the trick.

brady cole's 1st field trip

2010-05-16T18:36:00.000-07:00

brady cole's school went to the zoo on friday and i had the pleasure of being a chaperone. we had a great time. i just love the little gulf shores zoo and the kangaroo exhibit was awesome. they all had so much fun holding the little baby.

holding the baby kangaroo

2010-05-16T18:29:00.000-07:00

big man had such a huge day. got to hold a kangaroo and then friday night he got to go to a concert. i hate that i don't have pictures, but we went to the hangout music festival and got to see the zac brown band play. brady cole had so much fun! he says zac brown is his favorite and he wanted to give him a hug. he is always wanting to listen to the cd and i think he might have known more of the songs than me :) it was an awesome show and the set up was fabulous. i loved standing in the sand. it just didn't get too much better. hoping they do it again next yr.

18lbs 7oz and 28 inches

2010-05-16T18:25:00.000-07:00

are layla rae's stats from her 6 mth check up on thursday. she's a growing little girl! these are a couple of pictures that i snapped of her before the shots. she wasn't very cooperative and instead wanted to be a billy goat and eat the table paper. everything goes straight to her mouth these days.

layla bug working on sitting up

2010-05-12T15:29:00.000-07:00

she can't quite sit all by herself just yet, but it won't be long. she can do it for short periods of time and then just decides to plop on over, so i have to make sure she has some cushion or her boppy around her. she is still just as sweet as can be and loves loves loves her big brother. the girl lights up when he walks in the room and will practically break her neck trying to find him when she hears his voice. she still likes to squeal to get our attention, but she has found that babbling is much more fun. i have heard her say dadada along with bababa, yayaya, but i don't think she realizes what she's saying. still no mama though, even though i'm in her face saying it all the time. she just smiles at me and keeps babbling other things. i'm thinking she is definitely looking like her daddy in these pictures. she goes for her 6mth check up and shots tomorrow, so i'm interested in seeing how much big girl is weighing. those thighs are getting bigger by the minute :)
