Shoe Size Milestone
Summer Update
Well, last summer we were dealing with trying to sell our house and getting ready for our move, so we thought this summer would be very relaxing, but then Jeremy got laid off so instead he spent the whole summer applying, interviewing, looking for a job. We are so thankful that he was able to get a different Asst. Principal job with Waco ISD! God is good! So now we are enjoying the rest of the summer with Jeremy starting work very soon.
Here is Brianna reading Brady a bedtime story :) so cute! Brianna has been having fun this summer with Daddy home, going to the lake, VBS, the library, some b-day parties, sprinkler parks (she really likes those this year). It's been too hot to do anything outside unless it involves water. We tried the dollar movie theater but we had to leave early, both kids still aren't interested in sitting through a whole movie. She loves the backyard baby pool and she had fun planting a flower garden today!
Here she is playing with her babies. She likes to play that the bad guy or bad queen is trying to get her baby- too many disney movies I guess. :)
Brady has been having fun with Daddy home too. Here he is with his Thomas the train. We got this bridge and he played with it for days so then we found this train table on craigs list and got it for a great deal! He plays with his trains every day. He talks about Thomas, Percy, and James every day. His whole face lights up when the Thomas train TV show comes on and he watches the whole thing. He is crazy about his trains- so cute! He also loves playing with Brianna, running around with her playing babies, he copies what she says, it's precious!

Our house remodeling and decorating
We've been in our house for about 4 months now and I'm happy to say that we are done unpacking and decorating! We closed on the house 7 months ago and have done a lot of work on remodeling it. Here are the details:
Here you can see the new windows from Window World that we got throughout the house and the shutters that Jeremy painted. You can also see the white roses that are growing there. :)
In the living room we painted the walls, got crown moulding put in, you can see the new curtains and area rug. Jeremy also painted the fireplace and now it looks like new. We put new ceiling fans in several rooms. In the foyer we took down wallpaper and painted.
I love this wall decor in the living room, I found most of it at Hobby Lobby and the pictures are the kids last three years so I can see how much they have changed.
In the master bedroom you can see the new carpet that we put in all the bedrooms. New curtains, new sage paint. We also found some Venice, Pisa, and Paris pictures for the wall to go with our photos of when we went there.
The master bathroom we got new counter tops from Miracle Method, new mirrors, lights, fresh white paint on the cabinets, we took off wallpaper and painted the walls a coffee color.
We painted Brianna's room pink and purple with pink and purple curtains. I love the little curtain tiebacks we found at lowe's. She loves her new trundle bed and dresser.
We organized all her toys into bins in her closet with cute curtain doors. Some windows we replaced the blinds.
Our frog bathroom with new tile floor.
Brady's room we painted navy and grey.
The study/guest room (the couch turns into a bed) and the kids call this room the book room because all of their books are in the lowest baskets. We also have a little black desk in this room that Jeremy found on Craigs List, it is perfect for our laptop and I have my framed space shuttle pic that I love above that that all my co-workers signed.

First family camping trip!
We went on our first camping trip with the kids to Lake Waco at airport park! The kids loved running around the campsite, going for walks, fishing, and having smores at the campfire! It was a lot of fun. And they eventually did fall asleep in the tent even though it took awhile and they woke up a few times but we all managed to sleep some so we considered our first family camping trip a success! :)

Happy Mother's Day
Brady is 2 Years Old!
He is doing very well. Very happy and smart! He sleeps well all night in his crib and takes a 2 hour nap during the day. He is always excited to see Brianna and he calls for her and says 'Brnana come here', he likes to hold her hand to take her to play. He loves to watch Dora and Diego. He likes to eat most things except veggies. He loves to play with trains, cars, balls. He loves to go outside and take a ride in the wagon and go down the slide. He loves to read books. He colors some. He likes going to his mothers day out class and walks right in with no crying. He loves to ride in Daddy's truck. And he gives the best hugs! :)
Height: 36 1/2 in. 95%
Weight: 31 lbs. 80%
Head: 49 1/2 cm. 70%
And they say you can double their height at this age to see how tall he might be so that would be 6 feet tall! :)
