Oh Give Thanks.....

This is what happens during the prayer when Brynn has corn on her plate.....

Normally (no corn involved) she looks very angelic when we pray. Notice I stopped praying because I was laughing so hard.

January Birthdays!

January was full of Birthday celebrations. Happy Birthday to Asher, Kirby, Todd, and Wade!! The girls and I went to College Station and stayed with the Apels for a few days. We got to celebrate Asher's 2nd bday with a party at The Bounce. Kirby turned 25 this year and we celebrated over brunch. Todd celebrated his 30th with a nice, quiet relaxing weekend and we celebrated Wade's 19th at Rainforest Cafe! Brynn loved all the animals, the panda bears being her fav......except for the snake which she was deathly afraid of! Here are some pictures.

The Birthday boy who LOVES horses.

The other birthday boy.

They made him beat his chest like a gorilla when they sang to him!

Enjoying the Volcano.





Notice she was afraid Brent was going to let her fall in with the Crocodile.......and maybe she would end up like Captain Hook?

Camdyn: 8 Months

It is hard to believe that she is 8 months old already!! She has been crawling for about a month now and also pulls herself up to a standing position. Standing up is her favorite thing to do and she loves to practice in her crib when she is suppose to be sleeping!! She will cruise around the coffee table and her Leapfrog table.....she is just growing up way too fast! She has 3 teeth with one more on the way, she weighs about 17.5 pounds. She is still a sweet baby but she also has a little bit of a temper on her. She loves her older sister and likes to laugh at her.
Here is a video of her crawling and standing....I had to bait her with some Puffs!!


She also LOVES to eat. If she is in her high chair and sees me getting her food ready she starts screaming at me! We've just started to give her some table food and she likes that too. Here are pictures and a video of her eating spaghetti for the first time.

Christmas 2008

We had a wonderful Christmas getting to spend time with family. This is the first Christmas in Texas since before we got married, so 5 years ago!! We are really enjoying this winter weather (Ha Ha), after having spent many years up north it is so mild!! This was Camdyn's first Christmas and seeing Christmas through Brynn's eyes is excting and I know it will only get better. She liked singing Christmas songs and knows Jingle Bells and We Wish You A Merry Christmas.

Here are some pics from Christmas morning:

My Two Girls.

Brynn (almost 2 1/2 years) & Camdyn (almost 8 months)

Playing with her new drum.

Testing out the new car.
Looks like they are up to no good!

She loves her new "Pampoline" and jumps on it all the time!

This is her really bad "cheese" smile.

Sea World-Again!

Brynn just LOVES Sea World, it's a good thing we have a pass! We went again with my mom, Wade, the Montalbos, and the Apels over Christmas break. It was a very cold day but we still had lots of fun!

Brynn and Chritmas Shamu.

Uncle Charlie is such a good sport, taking the litte ones on the spinning tea cups! (Yuck)!

Visiting Santa.

Brynn loves the Dolphins. She wanted to lay on her tummy (even though it was wet) so she could get a better view.

Getting to pet the huge Clydesdales.

Ugly Sweater Party

Brent and I went to an Ugly Christmas Sweater party. No offense to those of you we borrowed these from!!
