Adventures of the Halls: Labor Day Weekend

Finally a long weekend! And finally a healthy Bradley. We enjoyed several outside activities, including 3 days at the Disneyland Hotel. We didn't go to the park though; we'll wait until Bradley is a little older before dropping the big bucks on an amusement park.

Bradley's vocabulary is increasing every day. He hasn't really strung phrases together except to add "mama" or "dada" onto something he wants. "Milk!" is a favorite lately. He's been learning his body parts and can successfully point out his toes, ears, nose, belly and fingers. He can also make the sound of several animals like cows, pigs, dogs, cats and ducks, as well as say their names. He loves saying words like blocks, balloons, bubbles, books, and car. And he understands so much more. He also sings along with songs which is ridiculously cute :) His mobility has also improved as he is definitely more sturdy now and he can run and climb better. He keeps trying to jump but hasn't figured that out yet. He loves to be chased throughout the house, causing him to giggle like crazy.

Now onto the pictures:

Leaving work on Thursday...excited for the weekend to start. Too bad this is just the normal drive home.

Can say (and eat) bananas

"Mama, I'm ready to go outside!"

playing with my flip flops

Another trip to the Waterfront Park in downtown San Diego

Visit to the local free "zoo" (aka Petco). Here, we're looking at the turtles

and of course, the kitties

Very good at going down the slide by himself now

snack time

Starting our trip to Disneyland! Without bad traffic, only took us about 90 min to get there.

We stayed at the Disneyland hotel and had a lot of fun exploring the pool area. This is just the area with the water slides. There were also 2 larger pools and 2 huge hot tubs. It was pretty crowded on Sunday but then pretty empty the next 2 days.
