Sweet sister!!


Well, I only have one picture from today and Brynn took it. I was in my shop getting ready for church and she came in and asked if she could take a picture of Brylee. She said...she looks so cute all cuddled up! So, today we went to church. When we came home we just hung out. I chatted with Mandy on the computer a bit. Keith and Brynn played the Wii for a bit. I cooked up a fresh turkey for dinner for us and my parents. We watched my favorite show...Extreme Makeover Home Edition. Right now we are listening to Brylee talking in her bed. If she doesn't fall asleep I'll rock her. I love rocking my babies! So, nothing too exciting today. A nice day, but not a nice weather day. It was rainy all day. Guess that's about it for today. More tomorrow.

Decorating for Christmas


Ok, so last night Brynn came down complaining of a stomach ache. I was afraid she was getting the flu and didn't want her upstairs without us so, I let her fall asleep on the couch. Chloe decided to join her :-)
Keith has always said he doesn't have the right curves for Brylee to feel comfy and fall asleep on him. Well, this morning he discovered he did...just in a dif spot than mine and Nani's. She looks pretty comfy to me :-) Well, today we decided to decorate for Christmas. Brylee was loving the tree and likes the view from her pack-n-play. Later in the evening Brynn made a beach for Brylee. The blue blanket was the clouds, the boppy was the sand and the other blanket was the water (according to Brynn). And the last pic is my lovely tree. I went and got some new decorations for it today. Love finding things cheap (or should I say inexpensive). It came out great!

We did some cleaning up tonight. Got alot done but still lots more to do. The upstairs is quite the task to undertake! So, Brynn decided that since her tummy ache earned her a place on the couch last night, she was gonna try it again! Yeah, didn't work out so good for her tonight. I don't mind giving in every now and then, but 2 nights in a row...you're pushin it!! So, the girls are both sound asleep and Keith and I are both on our computers :-) I need to get to bed soon but wanted to write this before I crash out on the couch. Guess that's it for today. More tomorrow.

Thanksgiving #2 Nov 28


So, today was our Thanksgiving #2. The morning was spent at home getting ready to go over to Grammi and Grampy's house to celebrate with them and Uncle Jon and Aunt Corinne. Brynn decided to try on some of Nani's old glasses!Aint she a beauty! So, we headed out around 12 ish. We took over all the leftovers from yesterday and I made turkey in gravy for hot turkey sandwiches...it was so yummy (if I do say so myself!). We also had the cold turkey there for cold sandwiches and all the leftover sides as well. It was very good. A few hours later we had some desert....delicious!!! Grammi supplied the desert! Then we headed home for the night. These pics are the girls cuddling up on the recliner watching a movie again. Just love it!!!


Don't have any pics from over at the inlaws...Keith just took video and pics with the video camera. Oh well. Well, that's about it for today. We are just hanging out waitin for Brylee's last feeding so we can put the girls to bed. Then we will attempt to watch the movie we rented yesterday and tried to watch last night. I was out cold in about 5 mins or less on the couch! I have a problem staying awake for movies!!! We'll try again! If it doesn't work we will have to try it during the day...maybe I could actually stay awake....maybe :-) Guess that's all for now. I will try really hard to keep up with this...for those of you who have commented on my neglect of blogging (Mandy and Shannon...haha). More tomorrow....hopefully!!!!

Thanksgiving #1 Nov. 27

Well, I obviously have been slacking on the whole blog thing and am waaaaaay to far behind to even think about catching up! So, I'll start with Thanksgiving and hopefully keep up from here on out. I actually have a pic or two to post from a couple days ago of the girls. I was working and my mom called me over to her side to see something really cute. This is what I saw.





They were watching a movie and cuddled up in a blanket. So cute! Love these cute sister moments! Hope they will always be close like this! They do this alot and I love it!


Ok, so Thanksgiving was good! We had a somewhat quiet one. It was just us and my parents this year. Dinner was good and we had a relaxing day at home.

Brynn and Papa spent part of the morning playing games. Then it was time for dinner.





So, the theme of the day seemed to be relaxing, as you can see! Everyone enjoyed just chillin out...including Chloe. The pillow princess :-) So, overall it was a nice day!

An Uneventful Weekend (kind of)



Well, our weekend was really nothing too exciting. Sat morning I was going about getting ready for the day and looked over and above is what I saw on my couch! She is sooo stinkin cute! I worked Sat morning for a bit. My mom watched the girls so Keith could help my dad get ready for winter outside...they got the snowblower ready, got the summer stuff put away and the garage cleaned up. After I was done working it was off to the Dr for Brylee's well visit and next round of shots. (My mom went with me since Keith and my dad were still busy in the garage). She had to get 3 shots and 1 oral vaccine. She did pretty well but she doesn't like to breathe when she is crying from shots. She made the nurse a bit nervous (she did last time too) because she was holding her breath and turning funny colors! I blew in her face and sat her up and calmed her down so she could do the last shot. While we were there, before Brylee got hers, Brynn got her flu shot. She wasn't too thrilled at the idea but she did pretty good. We explained that it was to protect her little sister since she can't get th flu shot yet. I think that helped a little bit. I wasn't sure how Brylee would be after her shots. The nurse said she could be a bit fussy and irritable. Surprisingly she wasn't at all! She did so good! So, last night we went to dinner with my parents. My dad wanted to take us out for our Birthdays, and when dad wants to treat...you don't pass that up! We tease him about being a bit tight with his money but he really is very generous when he feels he should be. We had a good dinner and got to watch part of the Sabres game while eating.


Today, we had church as usual. We enjoy going even though it is a bit tough to get out of the house on time....I'm not sure why! We have this problem that when we wake up early we run late(r than usual). It's like you feel like you have all this time and then all of the sudden you're supposed to be leaving and not ready!! Oh well, we made it. Better late than never. After church we came home to change and headed over to Keith's parent's for the afternoon. It's always nice to see them and Brynn esp likes to visit with Grammi and Grandpa (maybe partly cause she is spoiled rotten!!). We headed home around 6 or 6:30 so we could get home and get the girls a bath before Brynn had to get to bed. They took a bath together which was fun for Brynn. She was so excited. So, I tucked Brynn in and came down and got Brylee to sleep after a bit. We watched one of our favorite TV shows...Extreme Makeover Home Edition. Now we are both on our laptops and soon it will be off to bed for mommy and daddy too!! So, an uneventful yet busy, fun weekend. Oh yeah, I almost forgot! Brylee got her new bouncer from Grammi and Grandpa today! We had to put a pillow under her feet cause little shorty couldn't touch the floor! I don't know where she gets the shortness from...lol!! I think she will grow to love the bouncer! It's still a bit of hard work for her so she poops out kinda quick.

Well, I guess that's it for now! I think I'm off to bed...gotta adjust to the time change!! More tomorrow.
