Chicken Pox

Well, I have to say I am tired of the sicknesses!! Brooke woke up Friday morning acting cranky and by the afternoon running a fever. After a few more hours the spots started showing up. Hopefully she wont get the Chicken pox to bad. of course the dr's offices are closed so hopefully we will make it through the weekend. We had a rough night last night, hoping tonight will be better. So, I am sorry if anyone else's child comes up with the chicken pox, just keep an eye out! My poor baby, I feel so bad because she has had all these urinary tract problems and she's having surgery at the end of December. Hopefully the new year will bring on good health for Brooke. She is such a trooper. Always making the best of things and trying to be happy. I love her!!

Thanksgiving Day!!

I love this time of year. It always seems to fly by. I love being able to spend time with all the family. Although it was a sad year this year because so many things were different. Jared had to work so that wasn't fun. It was nice to hang out with his family and then heading over to my aunts to get more turkey and dessert. So full!! Brooke had a blast loving all the attention from her cousins. At her grandmas they have a little table and Brooke loves it. Her cousin Eden is a little younger and she had a blast sitting and "Chatting" with her. Mostly one sided babble from Brooke but she doesn't care So cute!! This was the first time in as long as I can remember I didn't get to go out all crazy on Black Friday with my mom. We have almost made it a tradition. We pull the way early and usually hit all the stores, making the whole day shopping. This year I only hit two stores by myself, finding myself talking to random strangers. Still fun but not like with my mommy. Hope everyone had a wonderful thanksgiving and we are looking forward to the rest of this holiday season.

Halloween Night!

So, Halloween was a blast. It was Fun to see Noah and Brooke running around in thier costumes. She ate it all up loving the attention she got from everyone. It didn't take her long to realize she could hold more candy in her bucket than in her hands. Daddy only had to show her once! Don't you just love the turtle!! He was so cute!!At work earlier that day we all dressed up so the hygienist were cats. And yes that is Baby bump showing true colors. the joys of pregnancy and the pounds start to roll on as the weeks go by.The best time of the year to have an excuse to eat whatever I want and blame it all on the baby!! Hahaha, but yes still a struggle to see the weight come on. For All those wondering, this baby boy has no name yet.

The Pumpkin Patch

Brooke is crazy about any kind of ball. She loves them Every time we go to the store we have to look at the pumpkins because she thinks they are all balls. The pumpkin patch was a blast. Noah and Brooke were to fun playing with all the pumpkins. Sometimes its hard for us moms to keep up!! I do have to say how much I love having my sister in law around. She cracks me up and loves to point out all my ditsy ways... and they are all true!! Totally turning into my mom. I gotta love her. Anyway I love ya Dianna!

Halloween Cookies

We had family night this past week and made Halloween cookies. Brooke loves to get into anything. she really doesn't care if she gets dirty at all!! Noah is a little bit more timid but he'll get into it. You gotta love the sticky frosted smiles!!

Emma Claire turns 3!!!

We got to go to Louisiana to see our cousins. Brooke loves Carson and Emma Claire. Her party was a blast with the clown and balloons! Everyone was dressed up in Halloween Costumes. Brooke is a cat this year. We are still working on the Meow sounds!!

Sam- The Ferret

While recovering from the Hurricane, Robin and Aaron got to come stay with us because they were out of power for quite a while. They have a new ferret, her name is Sam. She is so cute and it was a blast for Brooke. It kept her very occupied. If Sam would go under the couch Brooke was on the ground looking for her and loved following her around. The funniest thing is she loved to play with Sam but she didn't want to pet her too much. Noah was not quite as interested,he went after Sam a few times but he was not scared at all. He was much rougher when he tried to grab her.Sam ran from him to save her life,otherwise she might have been squeezed a little to hard!!It was fun to have them stay and I'm sure they were ready to go back when they got power back!!
