Black Eye

Ok so if you look back through my posts to last year around the same time you will notice that Brooklyn had her first black eye. Well again she has one, this time it mommy's fault though:( I was putting her in the car and she wanted to have her stuffed animals buckled in the seat next to her so they would be safe for the drive, as I was buckling them in she dropped her play phone, and leaned down to reach for it just as I pulled the buckle and carseat and WHACK my elbow met her eye, it was changing colors within seconds, she only cried for a minute, but I still feel bad every time I look at her. Mommy is sorry boo. I love you

Check up...

Today I had to take Brooklyn to the doctor so she could get some shots, so she would be up to date for preschool. While she was there we had her seen since she keeps telling me that her tummy hurts, so I had her seen even though I was pretty sure she just was a lil' constipated. Well mommy knows best sure enough, needs miralax everyday, decrease bananna's, cheese, milk, carbs. Increase Salad, Fruit, Raisins, Fiber. Even though I knew this I think that it is so weird. Brooklyn is the best eater ever. She eats everything and always is having a different variety of foods, but we will see if it helps. She also-SORRY R RATED poos at least 1-2x a day and this is like adult poo, but fiber fiber fiber it is.

These are just some cute pictures of her messing around in the doctors office before we seen the doctor. She did so good for her shots, she got 3 and just said ouch that hurts cried a minute and was ok, she is such a tough girl. Mommy is proud of you lil' sis.

College...

Nate has decided to go back to school. I signed him up for something online, and a million schools started calling him. He is too nice to just say I am not interested, so he would listen to what they all had to say. We had talked about him going back to school for some time now he just didn't think now was the time. I cam home from work the other night and he said I DID IT!! I took an online test and paid the application fee. YAY for him, it has been stressful getting it all together quickly since the next course starts 11/29/10 and he didn't even apply until 11/02/10. Bummer we don't qualify for any financial aid, but we can do right?? Of course we can!!
Nate I hope you know I am so proud of the decision you have made, although the next couple of years are going to be rough, tiring, stressful and many more emotions, just remember it will all be worth it in the end, and I will stand right beside you and help you with anything I can. I love you and am so excited to take this next journey in our lives.
Love your wifey:)

DIY

We have been looking through magazines and letting Brooklyn pick out some things that she likes for Christmas...Well she wants EVERYTHING... Of course she is 3 right, well I picked a couple of her favorites and then I really wanted to get her these other things she wanted from Pottery Barn until I seen the cost. YIKES, just for some play food it would have cost me so much, well I said I want her to have it and she going to get it so I decided to make some.
Here is what I have made so far...and for the price I could have bought one, and still lots more to come...
Banana w/ peel, Strawberries, Pop Tarts, Donuts, Eggs, Bacon

How Does she get so Big

I took this picture taking Brooklyn to school today just because I thought she looked too too cute, But then when I looked at it I wonder how could she be so BIG? I can't believe my baby is so big (tear, tear)
By the way she is loving Preschool, and begs to go everyday...Even on Saturday and Sunday. I am so glad she likes it and she is learning so much, she sings new songs everyday and does sign language with it.
Mommy loves you sis but please stop getting so big


This is just one of her playing at mommy's work Does any kid really get any cuter than this?

Just a LITTLE Measure...

I told Brooklyn that it was time for a hair cut, which usually when I say this she just wants a little measure, well not this time...she took me by suprise, she said ok but I want to cut it up to here but, not short as daddy's. I tried talking her out of it for several days, and then when it was time she still wanted it, until she was in the chair...by then though I had convinced myself I would LOVE it...And I do, I do!!
Thanks Mar Mar for the cute haircut.
