2 Bradley Wendy Days!

Wendy sent me these pictures this past weekend. My aunt is coming home from the hospital today after being in there for 2 days short of 3 weeks - so in the past 3 weeks there has been some shuffling of the kids. Wendy had to pick Bradley up from school on two different days while Mary and Tom watched Wesley because Mom was at the hospital with Aunt Bobby! So here are a few pictures of their adventures. The first day Wendy had Bradley they went on a nature walk and collected leaves, rocks and acorns (which I found several in my washer that weekend). The second day she took him to the park at the bottom of the hill where she lives and then to the park in Nitro. Bradley really had a Great time spending some one on one time with Aunt Wendy and Uncle Jim!

Potential Plus

Bradley, Reece and Tanner started Pre-Potential Plus classes yesterday. It is a program that is put on by the Teays Physical Therapy Center that helps preschool kids with their balance, coordination, strength development, competition and fun. Basically it is a way to let them get some exercise and burn off some energy while learning how to run, balance, and working on their coordination. Everyone has always said Bradley took after me and was clumsy! Thanks! Robby (the guy that runs the program) told me Bradley is very coordinated for his age! I don't know if you can be clumsy and coordinated at the same time but I think Bradley might be - because he is pretty clumsy. :-)

I think Wesley would've even joined in because he did several times - It is hard to keep a 17 month old from running and doing what all the other kids are doing. I tried my best to keep him occupied with other things but all he wanted to do was run with the boys! Maybe next year Wesley.

This is "The Pit"- I didn't get any of them in the pit because I was chasing Wesley at the time! But it is basically a pit of sand were they do different running exercises.

This is the boys (and girl) getting their feet washed off after being in "The Pit"!

And this is Wesley dreaming of getting in "The Pit" ~ Sorry buddy like I said maybe next year!

Veggie Tales LIVE!

Well Veggie Tales Live came to Charleston November 6th and Bradley and I went along with Missy, Reece and Tanner. I thought there is NO WAY Wesley will sit still long enough to do this so he stayed home with Daddy! Bradley seemed to enjoy it I think more than Reece and Tanner - they left at intermission - It was hard because it was a Thursday night at 6:30 - 8:30 and Bradley did start getting really tired towards the end but we stuck it out! It was cute - basically a lot of singing silly songs with a little bit of a plot!

Just Sit Right Back and You'll Hear a Tale...

Nick and Nicki had a Halloween Costume party Saturday night and let me tell you trying to figure out what Jeremy and I were going to be was a very stressful task. I wanted it to be good - after talking to Wendy about it we decided to go as a group and what better than Gilligan's Island minus Mary Ann! Wendy was Gilligan, Jim the Skipper, Jeremy and I were Mr. and Mrs. Howell, Nick was the Professor and Nicki was Ginger! Don't laugh but here we are!!!

So now you are all caught up on what we have been up to. I am sure it will probably be another two weeks before I get anything else posted. But for now I am all caught UP!!

Halloween 2008

Since October 31st was on a Friday we had to Trick or Treat on Thursday night. Around here if it falls on a weekend we have to do it the Thursday before. Brian, Missy, Reece and Tanner came over, Mary and Tom passed out our candy and as always we looked like we were famous with the Paparazzi following us because Mom and Wendy were both there! Bradley was the White Jungle Fury Power Ranger (Rino Ranger) and Wesley was Elmo. Wesley really didn't know what to make of it but he really enjoyed getting all the candy - he is my junk food junkie that is for sure!

My Little Cowboys

Here are a few pictures of the boys mom took on a random day at her house. There are also pictures of them doing what they love best - wrestling. Wesley just laughs and laughs when they roll around on the floor like this. It is really a site to see!
