Handy Brynnie

Sad will be the day when I can no longer post cute butt pics of her. :-) Anyway, I was organizing some clothes in her room tonight and she wanted to switch up her wardrobe from her normal pj's...apparently. She asked me for her hat and boots and then had panties on, but I don't know what happened to those. Pretty soon she's on the stairs "pixing" (fixing) as you see below. Ha.







































































Watching the rain.



In other news, she is ever expanding her vocabulary and understanding of things. She wakes up talking and falls asleep talking...and talks all the while in between! We love it. She is always watching and listening and repeats everything. Here are some funny gems of late...
  • "No, wind! Wind, don't blow Brynn!"
  • "Fatty try to eat me!"
  • To our friends who were baby-sitting her one night..."I got a stinky butt."
She can count to 10 and is working on going to 20 with help. She knows her colors and ABCs, which sometimes melds into "Twinkle, Twinkle," which is her all-time favorite song. She also sings "Itsy, Bitsy Spider," "Ring Around the Rosy," "Little Bunny Foo Foo," and "Wheels on the Bus" for us. She still only has about 10 teeth, but gets by just fine.

We are working on potty training, slowly but surely. Her body doesn't seem to be able to signal to her when she has to go yet, though.

She is getting more polite (saying thank-you and no thank-you without prompting) and also bossier at the same time.

So, that is the update on all things Brynn!

Miss you, Brynn. You are always willing to 'help' when you can.

More Graduations + Start of Summer

A couple of weekends ago Clara had a very busy, but fun Saturday with her friend Cora and her sister, Violet. The sisters' dad took them to the Breakfast on the Farm near Hawley (We had gone many years ago. Clara was so little, she didn't remember it.)   They also stopped at the dirt track races on their way back into town and then Dana met up with them at MSUM so they could go to the oceanarium there. We had never been before, but it was on our "Moorhead List" of fun things to do in the 56560 zip code. So, check! Out on side-by-side rides any chance we get. We parked on Sunset Road, as we've dubbed it, to watch the sun go down. There is usually one or two other cars parked on this low maintenance road whenever we venture down there. Clara into her granny hobbies. :-) We attended the last of this year's graduation parties over the weekend. I went to one in town on Friday night and then Clara and I stopped at Karlie's party near Fergus Falls on our way to Z...

Easter + April Birthdays

 The girls had Thursday, Friday and Monday off from school for the Easter break. So, Dana and I took most of the same time off (work) to match.  Always reading. 💜 Hanging out with Brynn. 💗 Dana and I went on a Costco date. We tried our hand at homemade ravioli again. I think it went a bit more smoothly compared to last time. Hubert's sister Abby stopped by for a visit. We hadn't seen her in a long time and so it was fun to have her We celebrated Dana's birthday and kicked it off with some Sandy's donuts. I don't recall what was so funny. haha. Clara's card. Birthday King Clara dyed eggs. I baked a birthday cake for Dana, messed it up getting it out of the pans, and Clara somehow cobbled it together into a masterpiece. Dana chose Lucky 13's for dinner out. On Saturday we packed up to hit up Oliver's birthday party before we went on to Dead Lake for Easter. Oliver is 9!

Fourth of July 2025

We were able to spend the Fourth at Tamarac again this year, with my sister and her family.  We arrived just in time for Brynn to change into her tennis outfit for the boat parade float. Their theme was sports this year. Clara and Oliver caught candy from the dock. This was the first Fourth of July holiday spent at my sister and Chad's own cabin on the same lake that Chad's parents have their cabin. Clara brought my mom one of her favs, Tootsie Roll. We were also celebrating Mom's freedom this holiday...from working on the Fourth! For the past how many years, Mom has had to work the Fourth of July parade back home in Carrington. However, this year as she is preparing to retire and training in her replacement, she gave the parade reins to her successor. It was great to have both Mom and Dad spend the Fourth with all of us together. It was just like old times when we all gathered at Terry and Wanda's for lunch though. I made a new recipe for dessert: red, white and blue c...
