"Milk Chuggers, Laundry Baskets and Chalk"

This is too funny not to share with everyone. I didn't know little girls could be milk chuggers. I guess Ashley didn't want to wait for a cup and Hannah must watch everything Ashley does.

I don't know what Ashley's fascination is with Laudry baskets, but his one is by far her favorite. Silly Kid!

The girls loved side walk chalk. Since we got rid of our outside rug, I thought it would be perfect to let the girls have a stab at sidewalk chalk. Hannah mostly wanted to eat it, but Ashley loved to color and line up the chalk in a line.

It's all about teamwork here!

Hannah is starting to get the idea.


Ashley was so involed in the chalk and her new pallete that I could not get her to look at the camera for anything.

Wonderful News

We just wanated to let all of our friends and family know that we are expecting. It'll be number three for us. We are very excited. It's not official yet, but we're impatient. We're hoping and praying for a litlte boy to add to our family.

New Posts and Favorites

Okay so I haven't been very diligent with posting on our blog. I just downloaded 600 pictures from our camera and decided to post what we've been up to lately. The pictures are from our adventures this summer. We've had a great summer. We went camping, fishing, swimming, and gone to the movies. Wall-e and Batman were our favorites. I'll try and be better with the postings. Hope you all enjoy!---the Bradshaws!

Okay so here's a lsit of Ashley and Hannah's Favorite things to :

Ashley:

1. Coloring on paper or walls, the medium makes no difference

2. Painting. This has been confined to paper only and she hasn't veered to other mediums like the walls yet.

3. Playing with her puzzles. She's not very good yet, like Jessica and Joshua but she'll get there.

4. Playing with Bubbles. Hannah and Ashley love it!

5. Playing follow the leader with Hannah and a jumrope.

Hannah:

1. Playing " Chase Me"

2. giving Mom and Dad hugs

3. Eating: she's our snacker and eater

4. Teasing Ashley. She loves to take a toy Ashley wants and run off with it. Most of the time Ashley can't catch her and gives up in a fit. Hannah also loves to get in bed with Ashley in the middle of the night. She loves her sister.

5. climbing. she's going to be a great tree climber, she climbs on the table or any box in order to get into something that is not categorized as a toy.

The Girls Love to Swim

Ashley and hannah love to go swimming! It's like a huge, extended bath for them. Hannah loves to splash and have fun.

Ashley is getting real good at swimming. She can hold her head up and close her mouth, so she doesn't swallow alot of water. She loves her floaties!

Hannah had too much fun, she had to take a break!

Camping at Christopher Creek

Camping at Christopher Creek.

These are the pictures from our camping trip to Christpher Creek. It was a beautiful trip. However stay far from any campground where there are mexicans, I'm not racist, but we don't go camping to hear circus music at 11pm at night. Other than that it was a very nice trip. John probably caught 20 trout fish on the creek. He didn't think he was a good fisherman before, but we all knew he was, now he believes. It was a fun trip for everyone. The girls loved to go for wagon rides, play in the dirt alot, especially Hannah and watch Daddy catch the fish.

In case you can't tell by other posts, I love to take pictures of Nature.

While the girls took a much needed nap, I found a squirrel who seemed to be enjoying our snacks. He even tried to carry off a bag of bagels later that day.


Can you tell that John is just beat! He just wanted o show off his prize, the fish!

Camping at Potato Lake!

Our camping trip to Potato Lake with the Bradshaw's. The girls and even John loved being solely outdoors for a few days. The weather was great and so was the company. We had a great time and Ashley loved to practice with her fishing pole. We didn't catch anything, but we had great memories. It was a beautiful place to be!

Ashley has discovered how to work her fishing pole and boy is she happy!

Hannah's just chillin.

John's Project

John loves to make sparks fly and have fun doing it!

Here's some pictures of one of John's projects. He likes using his new rotarry tool kit he got for Christmas. They looked cool, so I thought I'd post a couple.

Sunday Pictures

I tried taking some pictures before Church. You would think that they would sit still at 8 am, but no they were still wiggle worms, oh well they still look cute!

Tricycle Fun!!!

Ashley Learning to Share!

On this day Hannah was on the tricycle, and Ashley wanted to be. She pushed off Hannah and ended up in time out. After timeout, Hannah was still on the tricycle and decided she would find a way on the tricyle. I thought it was ingenius, she found a way to do both, that is get on the tricycle and not get in trouble.

Random Images of our Children

Q-tips

Our girls love our Q-tips, I have no idea why, it drives me nuts, but we have the proof here. Hannah especially likes to bend them in half.

My little bag Lady

Hannah is getting funnier and funnier as she gets older and her personality develops more. She's my liitle bag lady, she picks up all of the grocery bags after shopping. And somehow, she got the whole block of cheese from the refridgerator. I think she had a helper.
