Another Night at the Pianaltos



We all got together a few weeks ago at the
Pianaltos. Brooklyn, Colby, Stella & Gabriel got to swim that night.


Colby & Brooklyn took a break from swimming and went to sit on the front porch.

The 2 Troublemakers


Stella was going to ride the tricycle and Brooklyn was going to push her.



Justin took the kids for a ride in the wagon.


Brooklyn was just chillin.




Dinnertime


Time for some rest & relaxation.





After dinner, all of the kiddos went back outside to play. Brooklyn decided that she was going to go swimming again eventhough I already dressed her.

Watching Cartoons

She has recently learned to climb in the recliner. She doesn't really sit in it though, she thinks it is fun to jump on and climb on. We are teaching her Time Out right now which I think is more of a punishment for us than her. Right now she thinks it is still a game.


Yo Gabba Gabba is her favorite show to watch. The first thing she does when she gets home after daycare is go straight to the remote and try to turn on the TV.

One of her new tricks that she has learned and nearly gives her mommy a heart attack every time she does it!

Lauren's 2nd Birthday Party

Lauren celebrated her 2nd Birthday Party at Chuck E. Cheese's in Rogers's. This was Brooklyn's first time and, of course, she loved it!


Jason & Kraig were teaching their daughters to cheat at skee ball.
Lauren was doing a good job, Brooklyn on the other hand was just
putting the balls in the bottom slot that you don't get any points.

She thought it was great the that she got toclimb all over the skee ball games.

Little Miss Golfer

Last Sunday we went to the Pianaltos House. Brooklyn got to play with Colby & Gabriel. They got a hold of one of Justin's golf clubs and had fun with it. They were actually very good, they didn't anything or anybody. Brooklyn was practicing her swing.


Trouble!

They were having fun sitting on the coffee table. Brooklyn has recently learned to climb on things. Now she climbs on everything! And it freaks me out! She climbs on the recliner and now our bed. She thinks it is sooo much fun.


Colby was saying "cheese" for me.



Gabriel, Colby, & little B enjoying the coffee table.


Just Hanging out




Brooklyn & Colby were putting golf balls in the bucket...and then they would take them out and then put them back in.


While they were busy picking up golf balls, Gabriel was practicing his swing = )


Emptying the bucket


Apparently it was Colby's turn to practice.

Happy 4th!

For the 4th, we went to my Aunt & Uncle's House in Elm Springs.
Brooklyn did well with the fireworks...they didn't seem to bother her.


Going up the steps with pop.










She was mad because I wouldn't let her eat the rocks = )





Stella's 2nd B-Day Party

The Birthday Girl trying on some new shades that she got.
They had a swimming pool outside which Brooklyn enjoyed. She also had fun in Stella's playhouse.

First Haircut

Friday, June 26th was Brooklyn's first haircut. Ms. Dana cut her hair, she has been cutting my hair since I was 15. She got to sit in my lap and I got to wear the cape. As you can see..it did not go well.




Chicago

In June, I had to go to Chicago for work. This year my mom came with me and we a a great time together. This was the first time that I traveled for work since I have had Little B. The first few nights were alright...but the last night we were there I was really missing her!

Spring Carnival


Coleman's had a Spring Carnival the First Weekend in June for the kids. Eventhough it was very hot Brooklyn still had a blast. She got to hang out with her pop.

She got to ride a pony for the first time.

I think her favorite part of the carnival was getting a pink balloon.
