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 turning four: Dana took her to her 4-year check-up which went really well. She weighs just shy of 30 lbs, though. :-( I was really surprised. Her doctor is not concerned though, as he says she continues to "track" or move up in her percentile compared to other children her age.

We needed not to have attended her birthday to know that Brynn is four around here. That is all we've heard since the big day. "I'm four, I'm bigger...I don't have to do this or that. I'm bigger; I'm the boss." Oh boy. 

Aside from the "attitude," she has seemed to grow up so much even in the past few months, especially in her looks. She is still very much into babies and has two now: Hazel (the original she's always had) and her new one, Dina. She is very imaginative and will make a toy out of anything. For example, last night she was pretending to be at the beach (common scenario for her) and she lays out a blue blanket (for the water) and puts on her "goggles" for swimming aka the plastic ring from a 6-pack of cans. Ha. She is always keeping us amused with her comments and antics.

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!

January + Valentine's Day + CATS!

We ARE still alive over here and have not frozen to death. Here's what we've been up to for the past month and a half! Brynn and Hubert at the OG (Olive Garden): 'Lady and the Tramp' style. haha. Taking in a Force game...with extra fighting. It was very exciting. One Sunday when Clara was at a sleepover, the three of us went to Black Coffee Waffle Bar after church and then for some crepes and boba at Tea & Crepe. Then Brynn and I went prom dress shopping which was really fun. She did find a dress she loves so that was a relief. This is not the one she chose, but she tried on quite a few nice ones. Clara made crowns for the king and I (me). Clara had to write an essay to be considered for the robotics team at school. She waited for at least a couple of weeks to learn if she was accepted, and unfortunately was not. She was pretty disappointed, but she does have a chance to reapply next year when she's a fifth grader, and won't have to write another essay. I th...
