Mr. Bradley will be a year old in 6 days!!!! It does not even feel like it's been a year since I was walking around, begging him to come out! It seems like 6 months, MAYBE. But in fact it is true, my baby will no longer be a baby in 6 days. It's an exciting time! Bradley is so, extremely close to walking as well. He has let go of the table and is standing freely when he chooses. He is also walking around very well with his walker. I think he is more than capable of walking now, he just doesn't know that yet. ;-) Once he figures that out, it's all over! Bradley has also discovered his personality. He's realizing what he has to do in order to get laughs, and that laughs get him attention. He's also learned how to answer questions... though every answer he gives is yes. You could ask him anything, anything at all, and he would nod his head yes and say "yeah". This is much better then everything being no, but it's still confusing. LOL
Brooke is coming up on some big changes as well. She's starting school on August 18th! She's so excited and can't wait! She'll be going to school 2 days a week, on Wednesday's and Friday's. I just know she's going to have so much fun. Last week she attended Vacation Bible School at her Papa and Bama's church. She LOVED it! She would come home every night singing the new songs she learned, and showing us her projects that she made. I love that she loves learning so much... I only hope this continues for years and years to come. Brooke completed her last week of TumbleTotz for the summer on Tuesday. I am amazed at how much she has learned and the things she can do! She does summersalts like nobody's business, she can walk a balance beam, and jump off of huge cliffs into piles of foam blocks with no fear whatsoever. The parents were able to go inside and watch on the last day, so I took as many pictures as I could. They are all posted on our Picasa web album posted below. Thanks to Brooke's Grandma Bonnie, she's going to be able to continue on with tumbling for the fall season. She'll continue to go once a week, on Thursdays at 3:30. Brooke is going to have a very busy schedule, packed full of fun! This also means a very busy schedule for Mommy and Bradley as well. =)
Daniel is now in his 6th week of Transition at Verizon and is spending more and more time on the phones, and though there are some bad calls, he is still enjoying his job. 6 more weeks and he'll be completely done with all training and his schedule will change. Hopefully he's able to get a good schedule, but we'll work with whatever he's given. He'll also have the opportunity to work overtime once he's out of transition. This will help us start to save up for a trip back home... though while we save, any and all are welcome to come and visit us. I know two little ones that absolutely LOVE visitors. =)
