Excited About The Rain

What a weirdo!! :)

Random

* Brynn was being quiet in her carseat (completely NOT NORMAL for her) and I caught her with her finger in her nose. I said "What do you think you're doing?!" in a joking voice and she said "Boogers in my nose Mommy... boogers tuck (stuck) in my nose"!!

* Brynn had her fingernails and big toenails painted for the first time ever on Sunday morning by Lindy. She only had her big toenails painted because she wouldn't sit still for the rest of them to get painted. She thinks it's the coolest thing EVER. She walks around holding her fingers all spread out saying "My neels (nails)." "Linny dude it my neels Mommy!" "Pitty neels!!" (Pretty nails!!)

* My mom came out to visit at the beginning of the year and it just happened to be lightning like crazy outside. There was a HUGE burst of lightning on one side of us and mom completely didn't see it, she was looking the other way. So, one of our on going jokes is that mom can't see things that are really obvious and right in front of her face. Tonight Brynn and Chad were walking inside from the garage, Chad saw a gecko and wanted to show it to Brynn. He tried to show her where it was and she kept looking everywhere except for where the gecko was. Just like Ammie!! :)

* Examples of her vocabulary:
Chicken - kickin
Grapes - bapes
Chocolate milk - cocky muck or chocky muck
White (or regular) milk - Reega muck
Elephant - elephanent
Alligator - Aldeegator

* She blames Brady at daycare for EVERYTHING. If she has a scratch on her arm, she says "Brady dude it". If her shirt is dirty, "Brady dude it". If she fell and hurt her knee at home, "Brady dude it".

* She still calls gum "dum".

* Potty training was going really well until this weekend, I don't know what happened but she's not into it at all now and throws a fit when we make her try to go.

* Her favorite book is the "Poop Book" from Lindy

* She thinks she can get out of doing anything, like getting a bath or going to bed, if she tells us she has to go potty. BUT SHE WON'T GO!!

* She loves babies. She got a baby and a stroller from Gramma and Ana for her birthday and she thinks they are SO COOL. She runs around the house with the stroller and loves to run into things, especially the dogs. We can't find the baby's clothes anywhere, she's been naked for a month.

* She loves iced tea.

* She tells the dogs "HUSH GUYS!!" when they're outside barking.

* She also says "BACK UP! BACK UP! when the dogs are in her way.

* She always wants the dogs to come and see her. She says "Jetta, a meer" (Jetta, come here!) a lot. Jetta's a sucker and usually listens. :)

* She LOVES to talk on the phone. Actually, she loves to "pretend" to talk on the phone. She'll grab my phone, or the house phone, and say "Ha whoa? Yeah. Ammie Hi-Yo. Bye bye." Translation: Hello? Yeah. Ammie is in Ohio. Bye bye.

I have to admit, I've been horrible about taking pictures lately. Mostly, it's because Brynn doesn't want to have her picture taken. She always looks away from the camera or says "Mommy, no tamra"!! Sorry kid, get used to it... you'll love me for it later!!

Best (and cutest!) Kid Ever

(Even though she's going through the "terrible two's"...)

Bowling

Last weekend we went to Garrett Haney's birthday party and Brynn has A TON of fun!! They put up the bumpers and they also have a rack that little kids can put their balls on and push them down so that they actually make it all the way to the pins. Lindy - I think we found something fun to do (inside!) while you're here in a couple weeks!! :)
