I'm a Big Kid NOW!


Unfortunately this post isnt about Brit being potty trained, but he is in a big kid bed now. A few months ago he climbed out a few times but then stopped. Then last week sometime he started climbing out again. He would climb out when he would wake up and just knock on the door till we came to get him. Then he did it right when we layed him down and he would knock and scream until he feel asleep on the floor. That only happened once and I had to push him out of the way with the door to get in and put him in bed. He then started climbing out, screaming and knocking for a few minutes and climbing back in bed to fall asleep. So today we made it into a toddler bed. He loved jumping on the bed of course, but then he acted pretty concerned about the crib rail laying on the floor. He kept pointing at it and asking "Mine?" he does that with lots of things. So cute! And tonight he climbed right in and went right to sleep. What a great kid!
Brit is really growing up so fast. He's almost 2 and I just cant believe it!!! He talks non stop and can say quite a few sentences. The first sentence I heard him say was "I want shovel." He also says "I see" and "I try" a lot. When he asks questions or we tell him something he says "Oh". And when Hadley laughs he says "Hadie funny" I just love it, it melts my heart! He's such a great big brother! He's also a great dancer! Today we were watching some Michael Jackson videos and he was boogying!! He would watch them and do almost exactly what they did! We were laughing so hard we didnt think about videoing it, and when we finally pulled out the camera he stopped. He's got some moves. Watch out ladies!!
We love ya Brit!

Brit and Camt


Last week Camdyn came over a few days while Jaron had basketball games. Brit loved every second of it. They play pretty well together and surprisingly share pretty good. They swam in the pool (they had their first skinnydipping experience together, so funny), played in the sandbox and playground, ran around, DESTROYED MY HOUSE, and just enjoyed each others company! It was a lot of fun and Brit can't wait to have Cam back!

3 months

Some Cute Pic's of Hadley

Hadley's 1st Bath in the tub. SHE LOVED IT!!

Yesterday Hadley turned 3 months old and shes doing great! She's growing so fast and changes still everyday. She laughs now, but only for Briton and seriously smiles ALL DAY LONG! Okay, she sleeps all day long, but when she's awake shes always grinning. And it's such a cute crooked smile. She's been sleeping in her crib all week and she adjusted well. She still wakes up once, usually between 4:30 and 6:00. I can't complain... Shes a great baby! She still seems tall and skinny and is growing out of her clothes pretty fast. We love her so much and love seeing her cute little personality come out each day!

Shout out to Fathers!

I'm a few days late, but I just wanted to tell Justin how much I love and appreciate all he does! He loves his kids so much and is such a great example and teacher. Brit looks up to him so much and just can't wait for him to get home. Hadley loves cuddling with him and has her own special smile just for Daddy each day.
I also wanted to tell me Dad how much I love him and what an inspiration he is to me. He still teaches me so much and helps me grow each day. Thanks Dad!
And my Father in Law, what an amazing guy. He loves his grand kids so much and will do anything for them. And thanks for raising an amazing son!

Hadley's First Laugh!!!

Sunday morning (June 21st) we were getting ready for church. Brit was in the bath and Hadley and I joined him. Gotta love family bath time. hehe. Well Brit started splashing and I about told him to stop when Hadley giggled. Brit heard it too and kept on splashing. I hollered for Justin and she was still going. It was so cute and I didnt want it to stop. It was such a cute little laugh. She definately didn't get it from me:) I've been trying to make her laugh again and maybe get it on camera (since last time would have been a little inappropriate to film) but she just looks at me like "uummmm Whatever!!!" So hopefully more to come!

sssss

So ever since I found out about this video a few years back I have loved it. I would recommend it to some Kindergarten parents who's kids were struggling and most of the kids that knew there letters and sounds watched it. The same thing with my preschool. But when Briton pulled it out of our DVD collection a few months ago and watched it, i didn't think much of it. Until a few nights later he saw a S hook out on our lawn and ran over to me saying "sssssss". My jaw dropped. Now I know he doesn't make the connection of letters and sounds and what they do, but it surprised me. So he still watches it now and again and loves it every time. When he sees it he says "aaaa" and "bbbb" too lately. And while he watches it, he makes all the sounds with them. How cool is that. So for all you moms out there with young kids, this one is a keeper!
There is a math one and a couple reading ones too! I bought the 4 pack on ebay and that's the way to go if you are really interested.

Makes me want to scream and cry!!

This is really how I feel!!!!
So our computer was hit by some stupid MALWARE and it won't work at all now. I went to this site that has fun Primary ideas to help me a few Sundays ago and now my computer is so screwed up. Stupid people!!!! I hate taking it in to get fixed and spend as much fixing it as a new computer, but I might have to. I have so much crap on here that is not backed up, especially preschool stuff and if I lose it I might cry. I've got almost all my pictures backed up thank goodness! So if there is anyone really smart that knows how to fix this stuff and feels like saving me hundreds of dollars let me know. (I'll be your best friend:)) So until then, I might not be posing for a while cause all my pictures are on the computer and Justin's laptop has none! And I have so many fun ones too:(.... Those are supposed to be tears. haha. We've been so busy with things like JD's graduation, going to the lake, visiting new parks, and just hanging around the house. Hadley smiles all the time and is one happy baby!
