Fun weekend at home

We had a great weekend at home. Bailey worked in the garage all day on Saturday and we went out to play a few times. Brookelynn loved working with Dad in her boots! Working in her PJs and boots.

This morning I put Brookelynn down for a nap before church and when she woke up her hair looked like this... OH MY!!! I could not stop laughing... That was quite a bad hair day! We had to do some major work to get this ready for church. Crazy hair!!!

Our little Christmas doll. We got a little Christmas tree for Brookelynn's room and we put Brookelynn in the box! Silly girl!

First REAL playdate....

Last night Brookelynn and I went over to play with Jenn and Brynn. It was such a fun night! The girls were SO cute and we made such a sweet memory. Last night was the first time that Brynn and Brookelynn really played together. It was so funny to watch them chase each other down the hall and 'get' eachother. I took the sweetest video on my phone. Maybe I will figure out how to post it one day! I just wanted to make a little note to remember the fun, silly night that we had together. Sorry there were no pictures.

Pig-tails!

Brookelynn's hair is getting so long these days! Thankfully she will leave her bows in a little longer these days but they are by no means permanent. On Friday I was experiementing with her hair and put it in pig-tails! haha It looked so funny. It was fun but I don't think that I have found a new 'doo' for her. We went for a walk and got a couple of cute pics. I wanted to let her walk around a little more but I have created a waterbug. She LOVES the water and is not at all scared of it. She would walk right in to any body of water if I let her. She kept going straight for the creek. It didn't help that Nanuq was in there splashing around.



This is just a silly picture of my girl sneaking her 'snuggie bear' when she knows she is not supposed to have it outside of her bed. She is a silly girl and I love being home with her!
She found me sneaking a picture of her from the back of the stroller. It takes quite a bit of strategy to get a smile out of this little stinker these days around the camera.

Sweet sigh...

Happy Halloween!!

We had such a fun Halloween! We started the festivites on Friday night with Brookelynn's new 'scary' pajamas. Thanks Gigi for the new PJs! On Saturday we planned to make a few stops on our street then head over to John, Jenn and Brynn's. We went to to Caryn and the kids first. Everyone loved her Bee outfit! Thanks Nini, it was a hit!

Here is Brookelynn with all of her buddies: Rachel, Anthony and Anthony's friend. After we saw everyone at Caryn's we headed down to Vicki's for the first 'trick or treat' of the night! She did great! Then we stopped by Mardi's for a few more goodies.

Heading down to Mrs Vicki's to get some candy...so exciting!

Brookelynn's first 'trick or treat'! She did so good...she even got mommy's favorite candy! Then it was time to go to the Self's! When we got there Brynn was so cute in her cheerleader outfit! The girls were so good and played in their costumes.

Brynn wasn't too impressed by the wings

Little 'B' buzzing around...It was such a fun evening. We ate pizza and passed out a lot of candy! Then watched a scary movie...I have decided that I am done with scary movies!

Baylor Homecoming!!!

This weekend we made a quick trip to Waco for Baylor Homecoming! It was so much fun! The girls had a great time and best of all we got to have a brief visit with Jenn. We stayed at the Griggs lake house on Friday night and left early Saturday to head to the parade. It took us a little bit to get out of the house but we made it for the last part of the parade. We saw a lot of our favorite Baylor Bears!
Family picture at the parade...

Brookelynn was very entertained by the parade. She had a blast!

Brookelynn was very excited to see the Chick-fil-A float! She knows what her momma loves!

She loved her balloon!

We were so excited that Lindsey and Avery were able to make the trip to Waco! I love this precious picture of sweet Avery!

Walking to the stadium. She was so excited. She loved her last football game!

The kids were so cute at the game. Brookelynn loved sharing her animal crackers with Tate. They were so sweet!

Our little cheerleader!

My precious, precious girl. I can not put into words how much I love this little girl!

When we got home we had to get a picture of the little cheerleaders together!

A little of a challenge...but they were so cute together!

Fun times with Brookelynn

These are just a few pictures of everyday moments with Brookelynn. She is getting so big and smart. She learns something new everyday and has the sweetest disposition.
Loungin' in her chair...

Lovin' her passy...

Hangin' in her ride...

Talking on the phone! On Thursday Bailey picked Brookelynn up early because Caryn had the flu. When I got home they were both tired from playing hard all day.

Bailey found out the she loves sitting in her bumbo. This was news to me! She is so silly...she makes us smile everyday!

Pumpkin patch!!!

A couple of weeks ago Brookelynn and I went to the Dallas Arboretum with Jaxson and Rachel. We planned to get some great pictures of the kids and to get in some fun play time. Well the kids had a fun time playing but didn't get many good pictures of the kids together.

There we SO many pumkins out there! It was all so pretty!

The pumkin princess...
I thought this was a cute picture. It really is the perfect picture to illustrate the day. Both kids had a great time but they were not interested in getting a sweet cousin picture.

Sweet little blue eyes

After the pictures we pulled out a blanket and let the kids run and crawl wherever they wanted. Brookelynn had great time running up and down the hill.

When we were walking around the grounds we looked down and Brookelynn and Jaxson were holding hands! It was so sweet! They love each other!

my sweet little girl with her mom...ha! She did not want to take a picture with her mom!

Cousins bickering...I think Jaxson learned that move from his silly dad.

Most of the day Brookelynn and Jaxson had something in her mouth
