Quick Trip

After Adam's wedding we made a quick overnight trip to Shreveport. Mike was asked to speak to the youth there. It was fun to go back and visit where our little family started and see some of our good friends. Brelyn wasn't feeling too well so she and I hung out in the hotel for most of the trip. Mike, Bradley and Ena got to attend church and catch up with everyone there.:)

Since Brelyn wasn't feeling well she didn't feel like eating much so she came up with a better way to get rid of her food.:)

Adam and Shamberly

Adam and Shaberly got married this weekend! I was so glad that they chose to get married in Dallas so that we could be there. They were so excited and happy.:)This was Shamberly's mission president and his wife. I thought it was really special that they came all the way from Utah to be there for Shamberly and Adam's big day!

Ready for a Nap!

Ena and Brelyn

A couple of Sundays ago Brelyn and Ena wore the same dress...aren't they cute???:)

Baby B

"The baby grew. She grew and She grew and She grew. She grew until she was a 17 months old, and she ran all around the house. She pulled all the books off the shelves. She pulled all the food out of the refrigerator and took her mother's watch and flushed it down the toilet. Sometimes her mother would say, "this kid is driving me CRAZY!"

But at night time, when that 17month old was quiet, she opened the door to her room, crawled across the floor, looked up over the side of her bed, and if she was really asleep she picked her up and rocked her back and forth, back and forth, back and forth.While she rocked her she sang:

I'll love you forever.

I'll like you for always,

As long as I'm living

my baby you'll be"

"Love You Forever" is one of my favorite books and definitely describes how I feel right now with this beautiful little girl. I am picking up pulled out books daily, as soon as the refrigerator door opens she comes running to try to rearrange everything, and though she hasn't flushed my watch down the toilet I have had to clean up a whole roll of unraveled toilet paper more than once.:) Today she snuck upstairs while the rest of us were downstairs..I wasn't too worried because I knew that the bathroom door and my room door were closed and everything else is pretty baby friendly but I asked Bradley to go check on her..she had pulled Ena's dresser doors out perfectly to make little stairs and had climbed up and was on top knocking all of Ena things over! Even though the crazy moments are the craziest the sweet moments are the sweetest. She gives the best kisses and just started holding my hand when she walks. Lately she has started singing as I rock her and she is the best snuggler. At night I love rocking her and I often thank her for being mine.:) One of Mike's and my favorite new thing she does is the "where'd it go??" hands.:) We love this girl!

Suessical

Bradley's grade had a program last night. They sang songs from Suessical the Musical. It was so much fun. My friend, Mindy, made these cute shirts for our boys to wear so that they could dress up as thing 1 and thing 2.:) They looked awesome! Bradley really enjoyed learning the songs. It was lots of fun to go watch Bradley!:)
