Kiddo update

This may be the longest post in my blogging history. I think there are about 25 pictures. I am just warning you now:) I am so behind so I figured I would just pound it out all in one! So don't be mad at me! I actually love when people post a ton of pictures on their blog...more to look at!
So sad that this picture is blurry. This was us after church on Sunday as we walked out of our building. I am going love being able to see the Temple so frequently.
This might go down as one of my favorite pictures of Brooklyn. She got this new Gap outfit the other night at the mall and we love it. So when we were on Skype with my mom, Brooklyn had to show it to her. It is a dress with leggings that match this beanie! Uhhh it is so cute!

Crazy Brooklyn. I do love how her curls are sticking out of the bottom. I absolutely love Brooklyn's hair. It is so blonde that it is almost white and it is so curly. It is getting down to her shoulders too. For a kid that had no hair for the first 18 months of life, she sure is making up for it now.
This guy is sleeping through the night now! YAY! He has since he was three months old. Even though he only would wake up once a night, I still love being able to sleep until 630 and not be bothered. He is really getting to be a little chunk. He still is a skinny thing, but he is chunky at the same time!
This cute little guy has been the best boy. He is just loving life. He is now almost 4 months old. He is the biggest talker you have ever met. He jabs and jabs all day long. It might be my most favorite sound ever. He is so easy going and getting to a fun stage where he interacts with you. We are sure enjoying our little boy.
Weston just chillin on his sister's chair. He is definitely a mama's boy. I love it:) He really enjoys the ceiling fan and can't remove his eyes from it once he spots one.
Oh and did I mention that he is the biggest smiley boy you have ever seen? Well he is and we love it.
He has also picked up another hobby; watching tv. He can stare at it for hours on end. He loves all of his sister's shows.
Brooklyn is really into dancing lately. She is always, always dancing. I can't wait to get her into dance class. She also loves princesses too.
Brooklyn insisted that Macy hop in the this truck ride with her. She spots these things every time we go to the mall. Here in Lubbock they are .75 cents though! In Reno they were .25 cents! Sheesh.
Brooklyn and Macy made muddie buddies last night. Can you tell she thoroughly enjoyed her time?
Just cute Brooklyn! We have started having her watch the Book of Mormon movies that we all grew up on. She calls them her Jesus movies and frequently asks to watch them. She loves them and I am so happy she does.
Here she is showing us her glossy lips. This girl is obsessed with chap stick.
We went to a Japanese Steak House the other night. Brooklyn totally loved when the guy was cooking our food at our table. She loved the fire. She actually really loved the food too. She even asked for the lady to come and refill her lemonade. Silly girl! Brooklyn also asked for a to go box to put her left over food in. Then when she got home she ate more! She is growing up far too fast.
Me and my little girl in her brand new big twin sized bed. I can't believe she is old enough to sleep in a bed this big! I will do a post about her new bed. Jenny made it for her and it is awesome!
Little miss Brooklyn has a quite a rough time with this big adjustment in her life. She has asked to go home a few times. She also asks to go and see Grandpa and SheShe too. It breaks my heart every time. Her behavior has been pretty bad too. I just have to be patient with her because she is not normally like this. This time change of two hours has really affected us all. I can't snap this tired feeling if it were to save my life. Poor Brooklyn has just had a rough time. This week it has gotten better though.
Brooklyn is really loving piggie tails lately. Yesterday Macy was doing her hair and was going to put her bangs up and Brooklyn insisted that she swoop them to the side like Macy had hers. She is also loving high pony tails too. I LOVE and I mean LOVE having a girl!
She is really getting to love the camera.
Before we left Brooklyn spent some time at the park. Macy would take her while I packed. Here she is stopping to smell the flowers.
Brooklyn and Macy at the park. Macy extended her time here. She was supposed to go home this last Sunday, but couldn't tare herself away from my kids. So she is staying until Saturday. I will hate to see her go. :(
Brooklyn being funny. She loves to make crazy faces.
Trying to be scary???? Or Jazz hands...not sure what she is doing here???
And onto the biggest news in our family....
My Brother Reilly turned in his mission papers early Monday morning. We will find out where he goes next week. I CANNOT believe that my little brother will be going out on his mission in a few months. He is going to be so great:) I will update about that the day we get it! Can't wait!
