Since Ena got her pictures taken I decided to try to get a few shots of Bradley and Brelyn. Bradley was a good sport and posed for a couple of shots but was done pretty quick...

Brelyn on the other hand had better things to do..like..

Look everywhere except for at me.. Make funny faces..

Crawl away from me as quickly as possible..
Play with a bright pink ball..
Examine the grass..

and try to eat things she's not suppose to!

Maybe we'll try again another day.:)

Ena Beana

Ena just got home from spending the week at Mema and Papa's. She had a lot of fun but we missed her like crazy! I am so glad to have her back home.:)

While she was there my sister, Megan, took some pictures of her. I think Ena had a lot of fun posing for Megan.:) Megan got some great pictures! I have a lot of favorites..This is at the Mckneely family reunion..Ena was playing in the dirt with her cousins.. Walking with Papa..

Twirling with Mema..

My beautiful girl...

Cuteness:)

I am so grateful to be Ena's mom. Our family was not the same without her here! We are so glad to have her back home!!!:)

I was showing a funny video to Bradley and some of his friends today. The boys were laughing and so Brelyn decided to crawl over and check out what was so funny and then join in..it was too cute.:)

Time Out for Women

I just had an amazing weekend with two of my sisters and my mom. My sisters Abby and Ginger and my mom came here for the weekend to attend Time Out For Women. We learned alot and had a great time being together. We made yummy food and stayed up late talking and were encouraged and reminded who we are by all of the speakers. We missed our sisters that weren't able to come so we'll have to plan another girls weekend soon!Saturday my cousin, Rachel was able to join us. It was so good to see her and catch up!Saturday night we made Thai food...it was interesting but fun to try something different. The kids loved using thier chop sticks. Ginger and I both celebrate birthdays in October so Abby brought us a cookie cake. It was so yummy. Cookie cakes are my favorite!

pumpkin patch

This past week we went to the pumpkin patch. It was just a small one right here in town but it was a lot of fun and it was free.:) It had a hay maze and a bouncy house and a hayride. The kids had a lot of fun! Since Mike was working late we went with some friends..I think we'll have to take Mike back sometime, though!
The hay ride was a little windy...

They had free tattoos

The Hay Maze

Brelyn

Brelyn loves watching the kiddos outside..I know it won't be long until she is out there with them! She can hardly wait!

My Brelyn

So the other night I was putting this cute, sweet, funny baby to bed...she has been a perfect sleeper...I usually rock her for just a few moments give her a binkie and her blanket and lay her down without any fuss. But for some reason this night she started fussing. I waited for a few moments but when she didn't stop I went in to check on her. I picked her up and started rocking her again. She was wide awake but she just cuddled and let me rock her and sing to her. At 10 months old those moments of her letting me just hold her are rare...there is too much to see and do!:) I felt this sweetest peace as I held her..it was one of those special mommy moments that I don't want to forget.:)

I thought I would also add this picture..Brelyn loves loves loves being outside. She loves feeling the grass and getting dirty but she isn't a fan of crawling on her knees when she is on the grass. It is the cutest thing to watch her crawl on her toes.:)
