Good morning! It has been awhile since my last post so I figured I should come jot a few lines about how much Bray has changed :)


He started walking a week after he turned 1 and is now running. It is insane how fast they learn! His favorite foods now are turkey & cheese and man does he love his milk. He would drink it ALL DAY if I would let him haha. He is saying more words now too. He is so fun to watch!


I start school December 5th for Medical Assisting. I'm really excited. This is something I have been wanting to do for a LONG time! It has never worked out in the past but this time it will! It is different this time because I am going for ME (well, Bray too lol). I want him to have the best life possible and be able to do all the activities he wants to do. In order for that to happen, I am going to need a reliable career. 


Today is Sunday so we don't have anything planned. Trip is working so it's just Bray & me hanging out at home. The weather has started getting colder and SO windy! Typical in this area. Absolutely no wind during the summer when you need it but as soon as winter hits, the wind is constant with gusts up to 50mph on pretty much a daily basis lol... odd. 


Oh yeah, we moved on the 1st and now have our own apartment. YAY! We still haven't gotten all of our stuff from my parent's house though. It's nice having our own place and Bray LOVES having his own room. We leave the door open so he can go in & out of there as he pleases. He gets a kick out of it. Sometimes he will even close the door and close himself in there lol so I have to go rescue him.


Our neighbors all seem nice. The guy under us is very understanding of us having a 15 month old. It can get pretty noisy with Bray running around I'm sure. We try our best to keep him as quiet as possible but there isn't a whole lot we can do. So we try to take him to the park or the mall a lot to give the guy a break lol...


That's all for now. Have a great day!!

Good morning world! I wonder what today will bring....
-----------------

I'm hungry...

I am starving and cannot find anything here to eat... hmmmm


I really need to learn to cook. It can't be THAT hard, can it? I'm just not sure where to start... there are so many great recipes I would love to try but the directions always look complicated...

Braythan just went to sleep, so it is time for rambling thoughts!
-----------------------------
Today has been great though. Braythan ate butternut squash and loved it (the only things he doesn't seem to like right now are green beans and sweet peas) I love sweet peas, so I'm not sure where he got that from lol... His favorites are definitely turkey and sweet potatoes.
--------------------------------
Trip and I took Bray for a short walk up and down the street. The weather was really nice. First day in like a week and a half that it has not been raining. I am all for gloomy/cool weather but I am not a fan of constant rain.
-----------------------------------
Dug out a few boxes of toys that family had given us for Bray when he was born. I haven't seen them since he was a week old. There was some awesome stuff in there! So now we have almost doubled our toy collection haha... but at least it didn't cost us anything.
-------------------------------------
I had so much fun playing with Bray today! He amazes me at how fast he can learn something. He is so determined. He started crawling around March 10th and was so cute and wobbly. Now he is crazy fast and his arms and legs move in perfect harmony lol He also started pulling up on furniture a month ago and is really quick to do it now. He has been experimenting with balance lately, standing with just one hand on the couch. I have this gut feeling he will be walking in two weeks. We are in some trouble haha... He figured out the stairs yesterday and that is now his favorite thing to do! We had to block the area off finally.
-------------------------------------------
It is officially time to start baby-proofing. We should have done it in the beginning.
----------------------------------------------
We will be moving in a little under a month so today I have been trying to pack up a few things that I know we won't need. I also ended up with a giant pile of things that will be donated to the local DAV.
--------------------------------------------------
Always to be continued....

Getting started...

Well, this is my first time trying this whole blogging thing. I want a place to come to so i can ramble randomly, log my thoughts and also keep up with what has happened day-to-day with my son :)


Here goes nothing...
