Brynn Lately

The photos are a little out of order, but here we go... Brynn and her neighbor friend, Megan. Megan came over to play for awhile on Saturday morning. They were watching Backyardigans...very intently. We have all our carpet and furniture out of our upstairs right now, so I *tried* to take advantage of the open space and nice light in our bedroom today. Got the one picture. Sure isn't what it used to be taking pictures of Brynn back when she used to sit/stand still! She's my big girl now....well, bigger than she used to be anyway. Brynn and Daddy after Dana's wisdom teeth surgery. Nurse Brynn was very concerned for him. I think she thought they took all of his teeth, even though she had her head half in his mouth looking around with a flashlight. She finally said the other day how she didn't have to worry about Daddy anymore because he was feeling all better. Having a quick spot of tea before heading out the door somewhere. Also, update on Brynn since tu...

Happy Birthday, Brynn!

Brynn had a great 4th birthday. She chose to celebrate with a Disney Tangled themed party. We still had a 'friends' party and a 'family' party, except this year we had them both in the same weekend. We let her pick where she wanted to go for her birthday dinner which ended us up at the mall for her favorite mall dish: pasta. I took her to Creative Kitchen and let her pick out a rolling pin that was just her size. Here are a couple of videos: Brynn blowing out her candle Brynn playing with her new pom poms. Party hats and favor bags. Pom poms from Uncle Lester and Auntie Shelly. Checking out Brynn's bean bag from Grandpa and Grandma Froemming. We got Brynn a big girl bike.

Christmases

Dana's the one with the big head. :-) Birthday present from Uncle John and Auntie Christel Add caption Wow! A big one! It's the coveted little pink car seat for her babies. This was the only thing she asked Santa for. Snow angels with Grandma Holly Thanking Great-Grandma Froemming for her books.

More holiday happenings

The Christmas season continues for us as Brynn helped Grandma Laurie bake some Christmas cookies on Friday. We also celebrated cousin Reagan's birthday on Saturday and today Brynn sang in church. The church video link is below. We were one of several crazy parents trying to take pictures and/or video, so bear that in mind while watching. :-) Brynn is in the back/top row, a little to the right. She's the shorty sandwiched in between two other girls.  Brynn singing in church Reagan celebrated her 5th birthday with a Tiana-themed party.

In the spirit!

We are very much into the holiday spirit around our house. Brynn has really gotten into Christmas this year and helped put up the tree again, bake cookies, wrap gifts, etc. She has seen Santa three times already now and was so disappointed when she realized we were one of the only houses on our block without exterior holiday lights. So, she sweet talked Dana into putting up lights this year, which we just got done this weekend! At least the weather was actually pretty conducive to scaling the roof to put lights up.  Last night we went through the area businesses' lights display put on by the Sertoma Club at Lindenwood Park. That was pretty much a bust, so we drove ourselves through a 'nicer' neighborhood close to our own. That was much more fun and free. :-) Daycare told us that if they would let Brynn listen, dance and sing along to Christmas music all day long, she would. We have our manger scene set up this year as well, and it has seemed to be a really good visual fo...

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

Cinderella and I baked Christmas cookies today. Yup, this is our child. Ha. She made a cape out of a grocery sack. :-) Gotta love the imagination!
