What's Bradley been up to?

Bradley has been up to a lot lately. Poor guy gets drug to school and dance on a regular basis, and is always a trooper. He works in the cafeteria and volunteers in Natalie's class with me every month, he is really starting to think he belongs at her school. However, Bradley has his own activities he is involved in also. He is still LOVING tumbling. He amazes us weekly with his strength and coordination. This week he was able to climb part way up the rope in the big gym, and all the way up the swinging rope ladder in the little gym! But tumbling is not his only passion right now. The boy is also slightly obsessed with golf, basketball, and video games. I don't know if it's a boy thing or what, but for a three year old he amazes me with his video game abilities and knowledge. I do believe he can work the i pad better than anyone in the family lol. He also has a pretty good golf shot and basketball shot.



Bradley has not only been into playing everything under the sun, but learning about everything under the sun. He has really started showing an interest in writing, letters, numbers, and math. He started tracing his name and learning the letters in his name to writing it and spelling it on his own. Now he recognizes letters everywhere. He also loves numbers and math. I loaded an addition game on the i pad for Natalie to practice, and Bradley has more points on it now then she does. He really seems to have a grasp on adding.
Bradley is also very imaginative and creative, last week he helped me build a house out of cardboard boxes (seen sleeping in above). And last night he made up a a very creative bedtime story with me. (Bradley's contributions are in "")
Once upon a time there was a train named "Marshal". He was hauling lots of "animals" to the zoo. He had "elephants, giraffes, zebras, tigers, and penguins". Bradley caught the train to the zoo, and after a long day of walking all over the zoo it was time to "go in the cat caves, and bird house to see the penguins". Then it was time to go home "and take a penguin".
So I had to ask him where would we keep a penguin at home? "In a cage, it would have a bathtub, and stairs." And what would we feed the penguin? "Penguin Seed." He had it all figured out. Apparently the story about the kid sneaking the penguin home in a back pack to live in your bathtub isn't so far fetched if your three.
