My Precious, Special Girl

Feeling Girly

With all these boys in the house Brylee is still so girly. I found her in my closet lining up my shoes.

And then in my bathroom putting lipstick on!

"O" a good afternoon with Talli

The little kids and I spent an afternoon with Auntie Talli
Talli's first real meal at her new apartment. I love when she does the cooking and all I have to do is show up!


Picnic style.

Today it is snowing, yesterday was 65~perfect park weather.



Baby Girl!




Naughty and Nice

Jacob being the nice good boy, closes his eyes while I wrap Christmas presents.
I threatened Jacob that if he opened his present that I would take it back.
Look at the good boy behaving.

Now on the the naughty girl :) Have you ever been so mad that you take all your clothes off and cry as loud as you can to get your way. Well this girl does. Since I am such a good Mom I took a shower and left the kids down stairs. In 5 minutues this cute little girl opened the wrapped presents until she found one she liked. Jacob freaked out and stuck the presents she opened under the bed scared that Christmas may just be canceled because the presents were opened. Brylee is screaming "Booty, Booty, Booty" I will translate~ Beauty.



As you can see this is a picture very happy girl and probably a confused boy- as why I am not taking her present back. Sometimes it is very hard to be two. We have been very busy with "Booty" glitter glue pens!









Jake and Speech



Jake working very hard at Speech Therapy with Mrs. J. He is so sweet to watch!



Early Birthday Present......





because I could not wait for my baby sister's birthday. Now we are shox sisters!

Happy Saint Nicholas Day






I have a very cool friend who celebrates St. Nicholas day so we are joining in the fun! My kids have always know the real story about Santa. We keep Christmas about the birth of our King not Santa.








They are smart cookies. I told them to put a sock by their beds and they came down with their tall sports socks. Now that's thinking. They are saving their money so they can secretly help someone in need. Lots of sugared kids at this household!

Award Winning Performence by Brett


Brett is a Super-Star! He sings, dances and has speaking parts. I am so proud of him! Push pause on the music on the bottom of the page so you can hear Brett on the videos.

My Very own Sleeping Beauty




A girl after my own heart, a nap! Aunt Talli found a very cool shirt for her to wear. If you wear a shirt with my name on it you must nap!

Working so hard...




Jacob has worked hard on learning to write his name. He went from not knowing at all to this in just a couple days. Way to go Jake!

My Sweet Boy


Jacob sitting at the kitchen table watching his big brother put together his lego set asking Brett "please when I am old can I play with it."

Finished!





Brett finished his lego set from Grandpa. 800 pieces in 5 hours. Good job Brett!

Thanksgiving Part II


Yep, Talli knows how to cook, sitting down!

Dad and Elizabeth come for part II.



I know how gross looking, but it really is the best bread pudding ever and if you eat too much you may have a heart attack.

Even Brylee likes it.

The boys must wrestle with their Grandpa.



Dad took the kids shopping for Christmas and their birhdays. Brett picked out a huge lego set, Jacob picked transformers and a bionicle set and Brylee adopted a big dog who she named "Drew." Lucky kiddos.
Thank you for coming!

Oh so Girly.....


The girl knows how to relax

Can you see Brylee's reflection? Not sure what happened kinda cool!

Looking good!

Brylee takes it all it when Aunt Talli paints her nails
