Let's Party!

We had a great birthday celebration for Mr. Brady Kai - lots of friends and family. 

Brady had a blast - there was a bouncer, face painting/airbrush tattoos, a taco cart with yummy tacos and quesadillas with all the fixings, and swimming.

 

(the special egg free cake that he never even ate!)

(Garrett guarding the super yummy egg ridden cake that mommy really wanted to eat)

We know, we know.  A little much for a first birthday party - but it was a long year and it was great to spend some time hanging out with friends and family we hadn't seen for awhile.

Plus - everyone had a blast - especially B.  He showed off and walked all over the party.  He LOVED the bouncer, went on the slide, played with the big kids, and ate TONS of food.

 

 

 

Big brother Garrett seemed to have fun too!

A Day at the Beach

We spent a day at the beach as a family - we went to Zach's 2nd B-Day party at the Santa Monica Carousel - but spent lots of time just enjoying the beach, atmosphere, and each other.

Garrett, Brady, and Bob "worked out," climbed, and ran around . . . (mommy climbed up the rope too, but mostly just hung out and relaxed).

We also had lunch afterwards with Ed, Scott, and Stephanie at Coast.  Yum.

I'm One!

Brady is one.  We can't believe it!! What an amazing, crazy, hectic, love-filled, sleep deprived, wondrous year.

Brady has changed so much and is so fun, smiley, happy, strong willed, and curious.

Mommy and Brady slipped away and played for bit at Douglas Park in Santa Monica.  He started walking/cruising at 9 months, but just started walking without holding onto anything a few days before he turned one - so we walked around the park and played in the sand and dirt.  What is more fun than that????

We love you so much Brady.  Here is to a long, fun, happy life.
