FAST FORWARD and PAUSE!

She looks so innocent, RIGHT!?

WRONG!!
She is really testing us lately!
The terrible twos are fully in swing at our house!
Can we FAST FORWARD through this stage, Please!?
It is a good thing she has her good moments and is so stinkin' cute
to make me change my mind !!!

(she really is having fun! :)).

This is the mat she has been sleeping on the floor with while we finish up her room.
She also is not liking her bed so much and throws fits all night and nothing can calm her down. Who would have thought your 2 year old would keep you up at night!

She thinks she is still a baby
and steals Jada's binkys.
Oh boy!!!

in the garden with Dad

she loves checking out how things are growing and is
so excited when Dad asks her to help!

Brandon can't get a game in without a little "my turn, Dad!"
I love watching her cute little fingers try to figure it out! :)

LOVIN' her peanut butter!
She has become SO independent and hardly EVER wants my help with anything.
She can almost get the Peanut butter herself.. other than opening the jar!
She has a spoonful of peanut butter at least once a day!
And I can't get over how cute it is when she asks for peanut butter!
She won't eat these without a paper towel wrapped around them.
TOO "code" (cold)!!!

***************************
Jada is changing SOO much and I just want to find the PAUSE button in
life at this stage!

She LOVES her toes and she is like this A LOT!

Gotta love that smile.
I can hear her little giggle just seeing this little smile! :)

attacking the newspaper!

poor thing spends A LOT of time in that dang BUMBO!!

Good thing she is a perfect baby and doesn't mind most of the time!

she is sitting up on her own.
she jibber jabbers like crazy.
Today at church I had to take her out cus she was just too loud and wouldn't stop! :)
She gets the most concerned little look on her face during Braylie's fits and tantrums.
She is rolling over.
Sometimes Braylie will push and pull her to roll over.
I think Braylie might be needing a friend and forcing her to get big fast so she can PLAY!
she scoots herself backwards.
she loves watching Braylie's shows on TV.
she sucks in her bottom lip
she always wakes up super happy
loves to cuddle with Dad
still wearing 0-3 month clothes

I LOVE BEING THEIR MOM! :)
I know that one day I will miss every day of this and want to REWIND
(some days I already do), so I am enjoying it as much as I can!

5 months

--MoRe SuMMeR--

Brandon had scout camp at Bear Lake and my sister was up there with the in laws, so I decided to go up for the day.

Braylie had a blast and could not wait to ride on the boat!
She kept saying "I boat".
She even rode the tube with Aunt Cara!
Little Jada just chilled!

Princess night in Brigham City...thanks to Grandma B!
I have never seen Bray sit so still before (while she was getting her fingernails painted).

my cute Grandpa B. passed away after his valiant fight with cancer (10+ years).
It was a lot of traveling. Bray (and MOM and Dad) were not goign to make it, so thanks to Grandma and Gramdpa G. for watching Bray for the night while we went to the evening burial!
IT was a very good service and so great to know Grandma and Grandpa are together again!
Jada was just chattin' away all night!

at the viewing...ready to be done...
notice cousin Ayzlie's binky in Bray's mouth!? Little stink!
look who is sitting up by herself! GO Jada!
and some more random Jada pics..

she started her nap laying with her head just above the blanket and feet at the bottom of it! :)

and... some random Bray pics...

tired girl on her paper towel bed

my chip girl.. she ALWAYS wants chips and has to eat them out of the bag..
NOTHING ELSE!

good laugh

I can't help but laugh out loud every time I see this picture of Bray! :) It was like 11:30 at night and neither girl would go to bed!

????

Why does my baby think she is old enough to hold her own bottle!?
AHHHH!!
