Easter

We went to the River with the Schwarz's and Randy and Diane for Easter. We also celebrated Grandpa Schwarz's 69th birthday with a delicious feast of Crab legs and shrimp scampi. Braydon learned to skip rocks with his Dad and went on a boat ride to a beach to play in the sand. Aunt Cristin read him books while he laughed really hard. Braydon has also recently discovered chocolate and goes CRAZY over it. Grandpa Schwarz also gave him his very first Harley. It is the cutest thing! It even has a little sidecar where he put his Easter eggs.

Brady is 16 months old already!

The months keep flying by and I keep falling deeper and deeper in love with my little man. I could spend every minute of every day with him, he is so much fun and is always doing new things. He associate Dad with the words "Da Da" now and me with "Ma". He calls Monty "Ga", our Nanny Monica "Ca" and will yell "Go!" at Monty when he's barking. When he goes #2 in his diaper he waves his hand in front of his nose as if saying "smelly!". And he completely understands everything we tell him. I'll say "Give it to Daddy" and he'll walk over and hand whatever it is to Craig.

He also feeds Monty. We'll say "Braydon, go feed the Goggy!" and he'll walk over to the laundry room where we keep Monty's dish, pick it up, walk to the pantry, open the door, unscrew the lid to his food and try and scoop food in (I'll usually help get food in the bowl), then he lowly walks back to the laundry room and places the bowl back in it's spot. Then he'll walk out and clap at himself :)

He LOVES other little kids, he's really good at sharing already and loves to play with others his size. He has a girlfriend Sophie from Stroller Strides, we all went to the Legoland water park the other day and they had so much fun together!

He's going through a pretty bad few days of teething right now, he's had a bad fever and you can tell he's in a lot of pain. He's got a bunch of molars coming through all at once, poor guy :( He's really cuddly when he's not feeling well.

He has this stuffed dog that plays the song "Head Shoulder Knees and Toes" and he'll touch his head and knees and toes when the song plays.

Grandma's 60th Birthday in Laguna Beach

Grandma Jan turned 60 and we had the best weekend at the most beautiful beach house in Laguna Beach! The house was 3 bedrooms and on the cliffs overlooking the Three Arches private beach. Braydon LOVED it there! He is such a beach boy! He also loved getting to hangout with all the people that came to celebrate. He is a total social butterfly and loves to work a room. He hams it up to the extreme. If he gets a laugh out of the crowd he'll laugh really hard along with everyone and the do whatever it was that was funny over and over again. He's a VERY busy little boy and keeps Mommy on her toes constantly. He moves from one place to another and never sits still.

He is a total flirt too, whenever a pretty girl is around he'll show off and get her to smile at him :) There were two girls laying out on the beach and he decided to try and hit them with the driftwood sticks he was carrying in his two little hands. He does that to the dog all the time, we'll have to work on that.

If you notice a scar on his forehead it's because we had Bray's first ER visit that Tuesday before. He fell on cement stairs by the playground and got a concussion :( It was a very scary time for us but thankfully he's okay!
