Brinley's milestones

Here she is stretching in the morning (when she was a bit younger), first food, making noises and laughing. What a delight!

Water!

Bentley LOVES water! He loves playing in the bath tub, he helps me "wash" dishes, swimming pools, sprinklers, you name it. We went to an outdoor mall here where there's a huge fountain in the middle. It's been a hot summer here and there were a lot of kids playing in the fountain. He kept creeping closer and closer, but then would come back to us. Then when we gave him approval, he went to town and had a blast playing in the fountain also! Here he is happy and soaking wet!

Diana Rose Farmstead

We went to this place with some friends that's basically a giant petting zoo/farmstead. Here's the boys on a tractor.

Bentley loved hitting these cow bells. I have video of this too and a little girl next to them is covering her ears!

This isn't a real cow, but it gave the kids an idea what it's like. Water did come out though.

It was cute watching Bentley feed the goats. He was very concentrated.


And what's a farm without a John Deer?

Omaha Zoo

We went with our friends, the Sims, and Jon and Miriam and their family to the zoo. In the morning all the other adults went to the temple while Aaron and I stayed at the hotel with all the kids. This part was fun but a little crazy.

Here we are with the gorillas (they're the ones in the background).

There's a butterfly room at the zoo where the butterflies fly all around you. Unfortunately this is the best picture we took.

Bentley's favorite part was the penguins.


There was a beautiful display of jelly fish.

Bed time!

A lot of times we'll catch Bentley asleep with his legs crossed! So cute!



I love this because it shows how sweet Bentley is to his sister



Sometimes Bentley will set up an army of toys around him as he sleeps.

This is what we call fish hook.

Birthday Party

Our friend Tyler had a birthday party and he LOVES Mickey Mouse. So they went all out for his party. It was fun and Mickey even made an appearance!

Happy Easter

Twins

My cute matching boys!

My birthday

I had a yuppie birthday party. We all got dressed up, went out to eat and went to a friend's house for dancing afterwords. It was a lot of fun talking about how many yachts we all own! Ahum hum.


Helmet

And thank you for showing us how the helmet is really supposed to be used for...looking cool!

Sitting on a throne of legos


Super Brinley!

This is what happens when you leave your baby for one brief moment...she gets a helmet put on her head. At least her head is protected from other things a toddler could do to her!

Cute kids.

My sweet 2 month old girl! Time really does fly.

Bentley is so sweet with Brinley...sometimes with a very STRONG love (as seen here).

Jewerly

He loves raiding my jewerly drawers!

"Once there was a snowman....

...tall, Tall, TALL!". Yes, a ladder was used to put the top on this one! (again, how do you fix the picture layout?!!!)

Bentley's latest show

Aaron's family

We were in Utah for almost 2 weeks. On vacation I usually forget to take pictures. So here's pictures of Aaron's family, but I don't really have any of mine!
This is Vovo (Aaron's grandma) holding Brinley.

Sleeping Grandpa and Brinley.

Grandmimi and Grandpa with the kids.

Brinley's baby blessing

She is wearing a dress my mom made. It was SO gorgeous and she looked so beautiful in it!


Here's all the cousins on my side (minus Leoni)

Dress up

This coat said "0-6 months". Apparently it should say in parenthesis (closer to 6 months).

One of the best things about having a girl is playing dress up!
