Do it Myself

Brynn has taken off early into her twos... She is now constantly telling us "I do it myself." "Mommy/Daddy go away!" It is adorable to hear her say this well at the same times annoying when you really need to go somewhere and Brynn is trying to do it herself. We try to let her do stuff herself as often as possible, but sometimes the task is either not safe, or we really don't have the time for her to do it herself and then we get to see the tantrums... So far they are just kicking and crying.. not to bad and we have not encountered them that often... Ahh the joys of raising a toddler.

Here is one of her tasks she likes to do on her own "I washin my hands."

Brynn hauls the chair from the dining room over to the sink and then will proceed to play in the water until one of us makes her stop.

I just thought her face looked so old in this picture

"washin my face"

See how happy it makes us...

Halloween Preview

Matt brought Brynn to our grocery store/strip mall Halloween celebration. Brynn got a little practice for going trick or treating. Unfortunately I had to work this day, so I had to miss out on all the cuteness... But I recorded this video before I had to leave for work.

Potty Trained!!!


Brynn has been in underwear since last Friday and it is going AWESOME!!! She has had only one accident since Friday and that was Sunday before bedtime!!! I never thought I would have our baby potty trained before 2, but I guess she can continue to overachieve!!! She continues to amaze us with her achievements everyday!

First Snow

This is Maisy's first trip out in snow... Since we have had snow two days in the last week. We were pumped because Maisy loved it!!! She kept wanting to go out all morning the first day we had snow. She would stand out there and eat it. When I took her out later in the evening in the full yard she loved running through the crunchy snow. We are so happy she is not like Ella who will try to remove all her paws from the snow and just stand there on two feet shivering and not go to the bathroom. We at least will only have to deal with one troublesome/slow dog (Ella) outside this winter.

Go Vikings


Brynn loves to cheer the Vikings on. We "re-created" the original moment, so you have to combine the videos to get a glimpse of Brynn's reactions to the touchdown... Or how Brynn reacts to any good happenings in sporting events...

Bubble Wrap



When our new blinds came I could not help but to introduce Brynn to the joy of bubble wrap. Since it was the "big" kind I decided it would be way better to have her pop it with her feet... You can see how much she enjoyed it.
