Nathan Bradley,

Happy fathers day to my wonderful husband!

Nate has been such an amazing dad to Kennedy, and I know he will be an amazing dad to our little boy and all the other children that we have! It has been so fun watching him learn and grow as a dad and that has made me fall even more in love with him!

The day Kennedy was born I could tell Nate was going to be an amazing dad, even though he had never even changed a diaper before!
Nate has been such a sweet and tender dad to Kennedy, always giving her the love and attention she needs.

I love these two so much and I'm so excited our family is growing!
I love watching them play and explore together.

I love that Nate will let Kennedy sit on his shoulders even though she pulls his hair and hits his head when she's excited.
I know Kennedy loves her dad, even when he kisses her with his pokey beard.

I just love how cute Nate is with Kennedy all the time!
I love that Nate is the dad my kids get to learn from and look up to and I love that he is the man I get to be with for eternity. Happy fathers day Nate, I love you!

A Little Bit of Lately and A Lot of Photos

Nate and I went to Philadelphia last week to find a place to live. While we were there we went and walked around Philadelphia University campus and it was beautiful! A lot of the buildings are super old houses that have been there for hundreds of years and other buildings are brand new so it's a very interesting place walk around.
We went and looked at about 20 different apartments and houses to live in. The second one we went to look at we fell in love with but we couldn't decide until we had seen all of the options we had. So after two very long days of looking at very ghetto, sketchy, small, cramped and dirty apartments, we decided to go with the second one we looked at.
It is right across the street from a grocery store and shopping center, it has a pool and has TONS of space to play out side. Every other place we looked at was basically right on top of the place next to it with only street parking and nothing to do outside for a couple blocks away. So we are very excited for our new apartment!

Lately, Nate and I have realized we have oodles of pictures of Kennedy but no pictures of us. So... one night, after Kennedy was in bed, we set up the camera auto timer in our cupboard and had a little photo shoot...
I just love that Nate will do these kinds of things with me!

Kennedy has been oober cute lately so here are some of my favorite, most recent, pictures of her.

She is so good at folding her arms for prayers.
And she is very good at saying please... except when her mouth is full of food...
She loves to play with all her bows,
She kept saying "please" so we would put more on her head.

She is just so dang cute I couldn't not put this picture up!
Or this one...
or this one....
Nate is so cute with Kennedy. I love watching them play! She loves to get piggy back rides and thinks they are just the greatest!
Reading books is one of her favorites...
Nate and I got her a little play tent the other day and at first she didn't want anything to do with it, but now she thinks it's the bee's knees!
She will play in it forever! Especially if she has some books to bring in there with her.
And that pretty much sums up what we've been up to recently.

As far as pregnancy goes, I have been teaching dance this whole time so my weight gain has been pretty low compared to last time. Tomorrow is my last day of teaching so we'll see how much I can gain while I'm not forced to work out...

Also, we have decided to have our baby boy here in Arizona. So we move to Philadelphia at the end of the month, school starts for Nate in July and then I will be coming back to AZ with Kennedy in August until I have the baby. My Dr. said he would induce me Aug. 25th so Nate can be there for the birth, so I am praying that I don't go into labor early! It really scares me and stresses me out that there is a possibility that Nate will miss the birth of our little boy, but hopefully everything will work out!
