Brigham walking
I totally forgot to put this video up...this was taken about a month ago when he was first learning how to walk. Now he's a pro! He was walking all over the airport and Disneworld! He learned how to walk in shoes about a week before Disneyworld and he is so stinkin cute!

DISNEYWORLD
Well Brigham and I just got back from Orlando, Mikey stayed there for a "work" conference :) He played golf today and will play again tomorrow, then its off to work.
We left last Sunday, and boy was it an exciting flight!! Brigham hadn't flown for a while, and definitely not since he learned how to walk. He did not want to sit on our laps! But 4 hours later we made it! I love Orlando! We rented a condo through Joann's timeshare thing (which was awesome) It was 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and a full kitchen! We were going to share it with Mikey's co-worker/friend and his 5 kids but they decided to get their own condo, which worked out great! The night we got there Brigham decided he didnt want to go to sleep til midnight!! I had to rock him to sleep! We have been so blessed to have him be such a good sleeper! I need to keep reminding myself that. We were planning on hitting Disneyworld the next day, but Brigham slept for 7 hours and was up!! He usually sleeps 12-13 hours. We relaxed around the condo, bought tickets, and bought him a pack and play. we figured he doesnt like hotel cribs :) Such a diva!
That night Trevor (coworker) and his family came over for dinner and swimming. We had a blast! The kids loved the pool! The next day we got up bright and early and headed to Magic Kingdom, which was probably my favorite of the parks. The kids were so excited, Brigham loved seeing all the parades and rides, and the adults had a great time too. I wasn't feeling very good so I usually stayed with Brigham while they went on rides, but I did get to ride Splash Mountain and Dumbo!! Oh and It's a Small World, thats a classic!
Tuesday we went to Universal Studios, mostly just for the Wizarding World Of Harry Potter. I'm not a huge fan but the town was awesome!! Went on a couple rides there and I was DONE!
After those 2 days with Trevor and his family we went our separate ways, we hit Epcot and Hollywood Studios. Epcot is awesome, but Hollywood Studios was kind of lame!
Friday we relaxed again, caught up on sleep and ate at the lake by the condo.
Saturday we went to Animal Kingdom! I was sure Brigham was going to love this one, we went on the Safari and what does he do? Falls asleep for the whole ride! Silly kid!
Sunday Brigham and I flew home, since the first flight was not very pleasant we decided to use one of our free flights and get Brigham a seat, he did SO much better! We had 2 flights and on both he took a nap and was a happy boy. We had a great week but we were both ready to get home! When we got home Brigham ran straight to his favorite toy, his new car! He just missed his toys.
Some other news...I found out about 2 weeks ago that I have hyperthyroidism. That explains the 40 pound weight loss, dizziness, heart pounding, muscle weakness, and fatigue. Thats the main reason I wasn't able to ride as any rides. They have me on all sorts of medication that has made my symptoms even worse. I go in to do a thyroid scan this Thursday to see where the problem is centrally located and from there they will be treating it with radioactive iodine! Sounds scary! I willl keep everyone posted on how the scan goes.
Mikey has the camera in Florida still so no pictures to upload :(

Brigham's first birthday and Christmas
We made it a whole year!! YAY! I can't believe how fast it went! Brig is such a cute little guy!! He learned how to say santa last week, just in time for Christmas. We had a pretty relaxed party for him, had him open presents, eat a cupcake and just hung out. He wasn't really into opening presents or eating the cupcake so I shoved some in his face :)
For Christmas we headed down to David's house in Phoenix and spent the night there with 2 of Mike's brothers. We had a great time! Dave has 2 dogs and James has 2 dogs, so Brigham was in HEAVEN!! He would sit on the ground and Dave's dogs would run by him and lick his face and Brigham would crack up!! It made me sooo nervous but he had a great time!
Brig got a few pairs of pajamas and a ton of toys!
Mikey got some new jeans, a shirt, some outdoor speakers, and some grill tools.
I got a down comforter, a kinect for the xbox, a puzzle (it's soooo hard!!), 2 purses, a wallet, and a book Mikey made of Brighams first year, it almost made me cry! I had to hold back the tears cuz I was around Mike's family :)
Wearing the dogs antlers
I shoved the cupcake in his face
Being a sissy
Laughing at grandpa
Yummy cupcakes
