| Happy Valentine's Day from our little Love Bugs... and Bryce and I as well, but the girls take cuter pictures! We hope your day is full of love. Be around the people you love & do whatever you love and all the things that make you happy! |

| LAST year... |
 |
| THIS year... I knew Brooklyn would get even for that nose pinching! |
 |
| So we've been telling Brynn for a while that when she goes on the potty - the big deal on the potty if you know what I mean - Daddy would take her to Dairy Queen for ice cream. I haven't really been pushing the potty business because we have plenty of other things going on right now but she's been doing great just doing it all by herself during the day. Sunday night she went in their on her own and went potty! Yay - everyone was excited of course because we were getting blizzards! (or Dilly Bars for the girls). Brooklyn couldn't hold her excitement in and decided to tackle her . Notice the cat is caught in the middle of the WWF match as well! |
 |
| Our little Jack-O-Lantern (that's what her teeth remind us of!) LOVED her dilly bar and devoured it before Brynn was even done with a 1/4 of hers! |
 |
| This is GREAT!!! |
 |
| The girls were a little under the weather this week so instead of going out to play with friends, we stayed home and found ways to keep us busy. We did Valentine's... |
 |
| Made some cutout cookies and Brooklyn loved being able to lick the beaters for the first time! |
 |
| Carefully putting them on the tray... |
 |
| We painted their names to decorate their rooms. This was fun (haha!) and gave me a great reason to clean our floor AND the girls! |
 |
| By the end, I'm pretty sure Brooklyn had more on her than the 2 paintings combined! |
 |
| The finished products! |
 |
| We got around to actually decorating the cookies a few days later... |
 |
| Brynn's favorite color by far is BLUE - or "boo" as she says it! So of course, we had to make blue cookies! |

| Brooklyn loves to walk around with these huge backpacks that are 1/2 the size of her! One's a frog and the other is a big hairy dog... this night she wanted BOTH on her at the same time! Crazy kid... |
 |
| Brynn and I played a game practicing with her colors using pom poms, magnets and a cookie sheet. She knew ALL of her colors! |
 |
| Great job girl! |
 |
| We even had our own private rock band in the kitchen. I know you all wish you were here to hear that one! |
 |
| Ta Da!! It was a fun week and in addition to everything in the pictures, we even went out to lunch with Daddy at the Deer Valley airport and watched all the planes take off! Brynn has been wanting to go to the airport since Auntie Kristin left, so we finally did it (even though she really wanted to get ON one of the airplanes! I hope she's this excited when we actually do go in May!) We're all a little tired as well... Brynn, our perfect little sleeper, has become quite the little drama queen lately. When it's time for bed, something is always hurting now - her eyes, foot, today was her finger - and she wants me to lay down in her room with her. I've done it now for the past few nights, but need to quickly put a stop to this new little stage! I just love how she's trying so hard to talk and tell us what she needs - and I think she knows she has me wrapped around her finger! It doesn't help that when I do lay down next to her, she pats my head and kisses my forehead... she knows how to get me and I know, I'm a sucker, but I do need some sleep too so I'm coming up with a plan! |
 |
| Auntie Col sent out a special package for Brynn... we had to wait for Daddy to get home to open it because it required some assembly. Brynn couldn't wait to open this one! It's a SCOOTER!!! She was so excited... the look on her face tells it all! |
 |
| She had her helmet on before Daddy was even finished putting it together. As soon as it was ready, out the front door she went. She knew exactly what to do with it!! |
 |
| This is one happy girl - she loves her scooter! Can't believe Auntie Col found this Disney Scooter BRAND NEW all wrapped in the packaging still at the Goodwill for $2!!!! I can't believe the things she finds there, but we sure have two lucky girls that love to get her goody boxes!!! XOXO |
