Spring Fever

Brynley & I are both ready for Spring! It has become very cold in Virginia again this week, but a few weeks ago, it was nice enough to play outside without a coat on so we took advantage.

"See ya, Mommy"

Just chillin'

Watching "Melmo"...just chillin'...

Bounce house

In February, Rob & I took Brynley to a bounce house. She had a ton of fun, but didn't last very long on the actual "bounce" toys...they seemed to scare her a bit. She played on the smaller toys and chased other kids around. Here's a few pictures from our day:

Bryn kept watching a little boy who was going down one of the big bouncey slides. Here she is at the bottom of the slide, waiting for the boy to appear at the top:

And then her reaction after he slid down:

Daddy put her in a moon bounce and she was unsure of her footing:

How I eat an Oreo...by Brynley

1) Ask for the Oreo by putting on your cutest face ever and repeating over and over, "Cookie, Cookie".

2) Mom breaks down and gives you a cookie.

3) Hand cookie back to Mommy and say "Opy, opy" which she understands means 'open'.

4) Mommy twists the cookie open and hands it back to you in two pieces.

5) Lick frosting.

6) Eat chocolate cookies.

7) Try to get more on your face than in your tummy.

8) Repeat (although you may only get through step 1 on the second try)


Disclaimer: This process will often require a good hand-washing, face-washing and sometimes even a change of clothes.
