OUR LIFE...

So nothing really new to report from us in the past week. Life is just going on as usual. I spoke in church yesterday so Saturday was busy while I was trying to juggle the kids and get my talk prepared. I am soooo upset with what happened last week on the Bachelor. Jillian was by far my favorite. We continue to go to the YMCA and we love it. It is such a nice break for me from the kids and they enjoy getting out of the house and going some place. Every Tuesday I have a mommy play date at my house. Last week was sad because only one mommy came and she came late so I thought that no one was going to come. But it ended up being fun because I got to know her a lot better.

BRODY

As you read below we started potty training Brody. I am not quite sure if he is completely ready or if I just don't trust him. He made it through church yesterday without an accident but it is a slow process because not a day goes by yet that we haven't had an accident. Which of course creates more laundry...just what every mom wants right?! Besides that Brody is just loving life. He is such a happy little boy. Last night he was being so silly and Brooklyn was cracking up at him. It was so cute to watch and I have never seen her laugh so hard. It was adorable. We are still working on teaching him his numbers and letters. He loves to read books and play games with mommy and daddy. Baseball is his favorite sport this week. He loves to play catch. Last week it was Basketball. Who knows whats next?

BROOKLYN

Brooklyn is six months this week. I just cant believe it. She has the cutest smile and dimples that melt your heart. She is such a good baby...now! It was not always that way. She can sit up but still falls over a lot. She loves rice cereal and sweet potatoes. And this is so weird to me she does NOT like bananas. What baby doesn't like bananas? Strange one. She also loves to read books and chew on everything. She loves her daddy so much. It is fun to watch her facial expressions when he comes home and she hears his voice. She definitely loves her daddy. We play with her every night right before bed and I tell you she is a hard one to get to laugh. I will try everything I can think up. She saves most of her laughs for her brother.

JOSH

Josh is love of my life and my best friend. He is busy with his school routine. He usually has one test a week and is loving what he is learning. We are trying to figure out what to do this summer. Josh is thinking that he would like to do a competitive specialty and usually you need to do research to get into something competitive for residency. So we may be in Arizona living with Josh's family for the summer while Josh does research with an orthopedic surgeon or we may stay here and do research with and ENT doctor. Or we may just try and do research who knows where. I have come to the conclusion that we like to live on the edge of our seats in our family. You never know what to expect from us or where we will be living. Besides school, Josh just loves me. What can I say....who wouldn't?! jk! No seriously he just loves to spend time with us at home. He looks forward to everyday when he can jump in his truck and head home to see us. He is such a wonderful man and I love him with all my heart.

ME

Me well, I pretty much already talked about me. I need some new recipes to try if you want to shoot them my way that would be fabulous. I love to cook, hate to clean but cant stand a messy house so I do it anyways, I am learning to love working out again but that too takes time to love, I enjoy doing crafts and my best friend Cait is amazing and teaching me all her crafting skills. So to all my family you are going to love your Christmas gifts this year! And that's about it. I guess I am pretty boring. I turn 24 on Wednesday. I know I am getting old and I am not too happy about it. I still feel like I am 20, I probably act it to. Well now I am just trying to think of things to say about myself so I will say bye now....BYE!
