Brady turned one...

Brady turned one on Wednesday March 14 (at 7:32 am)...
I still to this day don't feel like my baby is one. When Reid turned one i was ready, all about my BIG boy... But Brady's different, he is still so much like a baby to me.
Reid and i sang happy birthday to him while we all cuddled in bed like we do most mornings.
i made dinner and invited the grandparents over, Brady opened one gift and destroyed a sprinkled cupcake.
Saturday March 17 was his party day.
I had so many ideas for this fun, festive outdoor cowboy and Indian party.
The weather called for rain
90% chance...
my heart was broke.
we moved things inside my mothers garage, which turned out lovely but the party planner in me felt defeated... Really i am pathetic at how much thought and energy i put in to simple things.
the day went on, it was really a great party.
Brady enjoyed everyone, his gifts, and of course his cake.
now, I'm happy things fell the way they did... his birthday was perfect for him and that's all that matters.












Brady Lee,
You have been such a joy to wake up to every day. your crazy and funny and full of life. your smart and sneaky and the love that pours out of you for us is amazing. Your brother adores you and you him. your a quick learner and at times that gets you in trouble (like when you pluck all the outlet covers off, or try climbing the furniture to reach something you want)... Your you and i have never been so tired but i couldn't picture you being any other way. i love you -Mom
