Log's First hunt

This year Chad built a blind to put on the hunting property so Log might be able to go out and sit with him and maybe catch a glimpse of a deer.  He never thought the first time Log went out he would get to see his Papa shoot a deer! 

Everyone I tell asks if he was scared or sad about the deer but he really wasn't. He has seen his Daddy bring home multiple deer every hunting season so to him it's not weird or scary or a big deal....just what is supposed to happen.  He tells me that Daddy has to shoot deer to "feed the family" and so "there aren't too many deer bothering everybody." 

 The biggest story he had for me when he came home was that he touched the deers eyeball....GROSS. No one can accuse the child of being anything less than all boy!!:) 

Election Day!

Logan had lots of questions when I got home from voting. I tried to explain to him in words he would understand why it is so important for Americans to vote. He asked who I voted for and after I told him he says "uh Mom! You should vote for Captain America because he loves this country!!!"

Only Logan....

Halloween 2012

A Bug and her Daddy....



A Super Hero & his Mommy...



Log & Lyn had a great Halloween this year. It was chilly so we only took Lyn around to a few neighbors' we knew would want to see her all dressed up. After that Chad took Log around the neighborhood to get all the candy they could;) Aside from a run in with an escapee-dog from one house he had a great time and was hyped up on sugar for a good portion o the night....the kid can eat some skittles!!

We didn't have many trick or treaters which was a little sad! In Atlanta it seemed like we stayed by the door the whole night to keep up and this year we had lots of down time between groups.

Lyn LOVED passing out candy- and of course all of the trick or treaters loved getting their candy from a cute little lady bug!!

This year we were in the Ozarks on Log's birthday so we headed to Captain Ron's for some pirate festivities! It was also close to Cousin Nolan's birthday so Log was excited to share the day!







Driving the 'Gyspy Rose' with Captain Jack Sparrow! Logan was extremely serious while driving because driving a pirate ship is not a joke!


Heading out to Sea! (A drive around the cove) there were two "pirates" and a "Captain" on the ship. They had a treasure map and told cute stories and pirate jokes. Logan was really into yelling "Scurvy Dog!!!" and "Argh!"



After the ship ride we docked and went onto land for a treasure hunt! Of course "X" marked the spot and the birthday boys got digging! The dug up a treasure chest with all kinds of pirates booty inside!


After all the excitement we came back to the restaurant for cake and presents. Log had an awesome time...I mean what four year old wouldn't love a pirate birthday?!



We found a baby pirate along the way....


Log also practiced driving a more practical boat....

The Big 0-1!!

Lyn you are a little peanut! At 19 lbs you are in the 40% in weight! I can't remember your length but you were in the 50th percentile there:)

You are standing alone and cruising all over the furniture....I am more than ok with you not walking yet. In fact I am little nervous for the day that you decide you'd like to be able to run around as fast as your brother...Lord help us!

Your favorite things are your snuggie (blanket) and paci! We try to keep them both in bed most of the time but you have been sad lately (molars are poking through!) so I have been pretty lax on that rule!

Miss Mae you loved all of your birthday present but you favorite is this little princess car from Nana Tami! You just think you are big stuff when you are walking around behind it!






You are definitely a water baby! Your brother loved the water at this age also but you just don't have any fear! Always putting your face in the water and crawling as deep as your little arms will let you!



Logan is definitely high on the list of favorite people but you have started to let brother know when you have had enough of his craziness in your area, haha! You love when he gives you kisses and it's probably the cutest thing i have ever seen!!

Daddy and I love watching out sweet little Miss Mae grow and know we are extremely lucky to have not one but TWO little Bradshaw Babies to love on:)

Then & Now

Log's first day of Pre-school:


And Log's last day of Pre-school:


How big did boy get over the course of one school year??! Log had to leave school about a month early because, oh yeah, we moved! Since he missed about a month we signed him up for a summer session of Pre-school which starts June 4th.

I asked Log what his favorite part of Pre-school this year was and he said, "the big glasses!!! And my friends and I love Miss Mikki!" Cutest boy ever! (his teachers name is actually Miss Nikki but Log has always pronounced it "Mikki" ha!)
