One of the dispatchers at Shaynes work made this for Nelson. The colors are so perfect on her. She did a great job. Its the 2nd one she has made for her. You can't see them but there is cute buttons down the front.
We read this book about 25 times a day. Daddy changes the words a little and is very animated and she LOVES that. You can also see in the back The Very Hungry Caterpillar. It probably her second favorite. She has several books and always selects these 2 to read.
The first picture is of Shayne in Seattle at the starting point. He rode 7 hours the first day and 7.5 hours the second day. He completed the STP today at 1400. The second picture he is riding across the finish line. Thanks to Grover for taking Shayne and his bike to Seattle and then picking him up from Portland.
TEAGHAN IS GOING TO BE ONE YEAR OLD ON TUESDAY. SHE AND NELSON PLAY VERY WELL TOGETHER IN CLASS. THEY BOTH LOVE TO DANCE AND CLAP. NELSON IS 4LBS HEAVIER AND SEVERAL INCHES TALLER THEN TEAGHAN. I HAD NO IDEA HOW BIG SHE WAS UNTIL WE TOOK THIS CLASS.
Nelson is taking a tumblebees class at the kids club. She looks through the window in anticiption at the class before her. She also greets everyone with a wave as they leave the class.
Shayne and Jill met at work in 2004. Shayne had an 11 year old son named Andrew, "Drew." A year later they were married and moved into a new home. Drew is now 15. The Bradley family added a new addition in August of 07. They adopted a beautiful baby girl named Nelson or "Nellie". The family is very excited about the addition and look forward to growing together. Shayne ~ Dad Jill ~ Mom Drew ~ Big Brother Nellie ~ Little Sister
