Bradley is 2!!!!
On February 18, Bradley turned 2. We got him an awesome 3-D Thomas the Train cake.
This is his face when he 1st saw the cake
Then came the typical Brad reaction
This was the best chocolate birthday cake we have ever had.

Look what I made!
Yes, it's true. You read it right. I made quilts. 2 so far. With a sewing machine.
I've been telling Rich since I was pregnant with Billy that I wanted to do this. It only took 3 years. He said I couldn't do it so the second he left town a couple weeks ago I went to work. The boys picked out all the fabric which was really fun and they LOVE them. I had Billy's done when Rich got back and Billy showed it to him.
Billy picked out Cars, Scooby-do, Thomas the train, balls, stars, penguins, , Nemo, jungle animals, mickey mouse and a green fleece back with bears and lady bugs.
The payoff! This was before Billy fell out of his crib and is now in a big boy bed on the floor.
Brad's quilt has Cars, Thomas the train, footballs, dinosaurs, dogs, farm animals, Mickey Mouse, Winnie the pooh, trucks and boats. It has a light blue fleece back with planes.
Next is Ronnie, Rich and the new baby...

How do you take your coffee?
Rich requires his morning coffee. More than most people. The sooner he has it the better.
Every morning while he tries to drink it Brad is crawling all over him and often spills it. It didn't spill this morning, but Noah went for a swim.
I think Noah had enough swimming during the 40 days and 40 nights but the question of the day is...Do you take your coffee with or without Noah?

I was so happy that I displayed them on my hutch! Thank you!

Tent City
Yesterday, to break up a rainy day, Rich set up this tent and teepee connected by a tunnel. The boys had a great time playing in it and "fixing" it with their Handy Manny tools. Billy has teepee backwards and calls it is "peetee" which is really funny.

Bradley Richard
Brad was born February 18, 2008 at 34 weeks via emergency c-section at 2:53am. He weighed 4 lbs 7 oz and was 17 inches long.
I was having contractions on and off all day. My water broke about midnight. We woke Billy up and the 3 of us left for the hospital. Billy was excited about being out when it was dark. Since we lived in Florida we didn't have anyone to watch him and so he was going too.
When I got to the hospital I was 5cm, I was ready for the epidural. When they were doing the epidural, they punctured the dura around my spinal cord, called a wet tap which causes a horrible headache.
Then, after all that was over, the same thing that happened after Billy was born, my blood pressure dipped and the baby's heartrate, but this baby didn't pick back up. The nurse started rolling me from side to side then up on my knees, back and forth to get him to pick back up and then started calling for help. My doctor hadn't even arrived yet and a resident came in and said they needed to do a c-section, they started wheeling me out immediately, people all around me and I waved goodbye to Rich and Billy. Rich couldn't leave Billy but even if he wasn't there it was happening too quick for Rich to get ready. When I got in the operating room, people were running all around me and they were calling for a NICU team, I remember them scrubbing my belly, my epidural never kicked in and I was so scared. Then, a nurse that was holding my hand put a mask on my face and the next thing was I woke up in recovery. They gave me a general so I was asleep for his birth. When I woke up, I felt my belly and wanted to know where my baby was, a NICU nurse came in and said he was ok and gave me a picture of him. The doctors told Rich after he was born that they were in such a hurry to get him out that they cut his face. IT wasn't bad and there is no scar. He was really bruised, the whole side of his face was purple. I could barely speak for a week from being intibated. We were both pretty beat up, but we were ok. From the time they decided to do the c-section to his delivery was 6 minutes. While I was still asleep, a nurse asked Rich what the baby's name was. He said my wife wants it to be Bradley and she said "Well, that is his name then"
He spent 10 days in the NICU
The three of us couldn't wait for him to come home...
Brad loves to eat, build with blocks, dance, go to the Y, calls, and have snacks.
