Happy William





I don't know if it is William turning one this week or what, but for some reason we have a ton of pictures of him. It evens out some of the other times when he doesn't make the blog.

William Can Walk





William can walk, look at him go. He is saying "Ma ma ma," As he tries to get to me. Poor thing he doesn't quite make it!

Happy Birthday William











Happy Birthday William! I can't believe that it has already been a year! Friday was William's 1st Birthday. We had dinner, cake and ice cream, and Joe made a piƱata. After dinner Bradley, Kyle, and their cousins Micheal and Sammy went out back to jump on the trampoline. William crawled over to the presents and started taring the paper off of his present from Grandma and Grandpa Fredericks. He was not disappointed, inside he found a ride on toy with all sorts of buttons. We couldn't get him to look at anything else after this. We did take him outside after a while and broke open the pinata that Joe and the boys had made. I wasn't too sure how I felt about people taking a bat to pinata that was created to look like William. Everyone had fun hitting the pinata and finding the treats inside. Then it was time for cake. I made a ball cake for William to have on his own, and the round is a baseball mitt, although Bradley says it looks nothing like a baseball mitt, it should be a baseball field. It was a very happy birthday.

Bradley's First Day











































Bradley went to his first day of Kindergarten today. Bradley was very excited and was up at 6:30 this morning. We walked to school, found his teacher, and said goodbye and watched him walk into the school. Bradley was very excited, Mom was very sad to see her little boy walk away into school. I held it together though until we got home. At 10:45, having recovered, I answered the phone to the school nurse saying Bradley was sick. Poor Bradley had to come home on his first day of school. He felt really bad, but he will soon realize that he will have many days that he will be going to school.

William



William being his cute self. He found he could turn around and stand up in the stroller. I know what your thinking, put the seat belt on him, we did, he is a wiggle worm and can get himself turned around and out of it. Doesn't do much good if you son is a contortionist.

Freckles


Look at those beautiful freckles. If you click on the picture it will blow up and show the full image and you can see them even better.

Look Mom No Hands



Kyle wanted to get in on the action and showed off his new trick of riding with no hands.

Bradley Riding his Bike



Bradley riding his bike. There are a few moments that it is a little nerve racking, but he does it and rides his bike on his own!

Bradley Learning to Ride his Bike




Bradley is learning to ride his bike. He is very good at going in a straight line, and is starting to be able to make small turns. Look at Joe teach him to ride his bike. At first Bradley was going so slow that he couldn't stay upright. I told him that it is easier to keep your balance if you go faster and that he should try to make Dad run as fast as he can. He got the idea after that. Joe is running fast now!
