Bryce & Brennon

I drove into the driveway today with the cutest view...you and Daddy were in the yard, he was sweeping the drive and you were just running around exploring, it was too cute.  Then when I drove up you were so excited to see me!  I love just looking at you and when you show love to me back I just completely melt. - - - I look at these pictures and wish that my hair was blonde again so that you could look more like me again...but changing hair color is too much fun! Love you!

You're such a little chatter box these days but there's one thing that you had never said... I love you.  We always tell you how much we love you and you wouldn't even attempt to say it.  Tonight you crawled on the couch beside me, leaned over and gave me a big wet kiss, and said, "I wuz you".  It was the sweetest thing EVER!  Along with this new phrase are a few more things you've started saying the last few weeks.  You now sing your ABC's by saying..."A B C D ah ah ah...H I J J J J ah P".  It's hillarious!!!!!  You also are counting to ten, well, sort of....you say " two, free, fo, sibe, seeks, seben, a, nien, ti".  You're just too cute!  It's like your own little language.  But you won't say one.  You like to tell us what noises things make: pig, lion, puppy, cat, duck, horse, chicken, rooster, and sheep.  The funny thing is that you're so very animated that it makes it just so hillarious.  Obviously I think that you're the smartest and funniest child ever...but maybe I'm just a proud mommy. I Wuz You!

Last week you took your first big trip with just you and Daddy.  You guys left Wednesday night and headed to Nana and Papa's in Daisy, AR to spend the night.  Then got up bright and early Thursday morning and headed to Waveland, AR to see Grandpa and Grandma up north.  I think breaking up the trip made it easier on you.  Your daddy said that you guys had so much fun.  Meanwhile I was here missing you an aweful lot!  You and Daddy traveled back to Nana and Papa's Thursday night and spent the night there.  I came up to see you all Friday.  When I walked in you looked at me with a confused expression and said "No Daddy?"  Josh had been at work all day and hadn't come back to Nana and Papa's yet.  I was heartbroken!!!!!!  There I was so excited to see you because I hadn't seen you in 3 days and you did not even care...you just wanted to know where Daddy was.  Needless to say the rest of the weekend was different thank goodness!!!!  I love you punkin and hated being away from you...

We were in Daisy, AR this weekend for Beth's wedding.  Mommy was in it and we had rehearsal dinner Friday night and the wedding Saturday afternoon.  As always you looked adorable and I am dreading the day that I have to dress you in Kahkis and a button down.  Love you - Mommy

We love to play in our new back yard.  I've not really gotten my plants actually planted yet in back...but the front yard looks gorgeous! Thanks grandma for all the help!  You also like to help me water my plants.  Caught you in the act.  Here's some pics.

Tonight we took the front off of your crib and turned it into a toddler bed.  I loved this crib when I bought it because it converts from a crib to a toddler bed, then to a full size bed.  So it will be with us for a while.  You love your new big boy bed!  You kept crawling in and out of it and were just so excited!  You're in there asleep right now.  Once I put you to bed you didn't try to get out and went to sleep quietly.  We'll see how the rest of the night goes.  You also wouldn't take your shoes off tonight...I just bought them for you today for when we're outside but it seems that you liked them a little more than that!  Love you.
