Well Brooklyn and I had a fun couple of girls only hours on Saturday. We both chopped our hair, went out for lunch and did some shopping. We were bummed though, we didn't find one thing to buy! It was fun, I really think each child needs some alone time with Mom or Dad, so that is my new goal try and make sure we spend some one on one time with each of them. Also I was wondering if anyone has any ideas for me as I am going to just do preschool with Brady here at home while Emree is napping instead of sending him off somewhere, does anyone have any good websites they get fun stuff from, or any other ideas? please let me know! I will post some pictures of our haircuts, some other day as I have been outside most of the day today and haven't done my hair yet!

Can't wait to see your hair! And I'll have to call you with websites. I don't feel like typing them at the moment.

Can't wait to see your new haircuts! As for preschool ideas...an easy way to come up with things is to work on one letter a week. Do everything that begins, relates, etc, to that letter. My sis did this and it turns out really fun. If I find any websites I'll send them your way!

Hey Teija!
I want to do the same thing with Carter and a little nieghbor girl. We moms are going to take turns teaching them at alternating houses. I found a good site: http://www.everythingpreschool.com/
And the "letter a week" thing is a good idea, too.

Brooklyn or Emree?

Brooklyn or Emree?
Just thought you all might like to see how much Brooklyn and Emree look alike, its kind of scary actually! Especially that Emree wears all the clothes that Brooklyn used to wear, I better make sure I get the right name to the right picture in the scrapbooks...well photo albums anyway. This is Brooklyn when she was 10 months old!

First day of School!

Funny Story 1

Well I haveto share this funny story about Brooklyn. There is a little girl in our primary who got her appendix out shortly after she was baptized and showed Brooklyn her scar, so here is Brooklyn's conversation with me the other day. Brooklyn: "Mom I don't think I want to get baptized." Me: "Why not?" Brook: "It's too scary." And I'm thinking she loves the water, what is the problem? Me: "Whats scary about it?" Brook: "I don't want to go to the hospital and be cut open after I am baptized." I started laughing!!! "You think everyone has to be cut open after they get baptized?" Brook: yes, Jenny did and she even showed me her scar. So I had to explain to her that that was not part of getting baptized, it just happened that it was close to the same time with Jenny. I thought it was so hilarious, you never know what your kids are actually thinking!!

What a handsome boy!
