Birthday Boys!

My baby turned 1! I cannot believe it's been a year already. I wish I was a little better at celebrating my kids' birthdays. I'm going to have to be better because birthdays are now BIG deal for Daylen. He gets excited to celebrate anyone's birthday. I figure, with the first few, are they really going to remember it anyway? Why go to all the hard work and set such a high standard for myself. I know, I'm lazy. So when we got our tickets to see "Wicked" in Boise for May 5, yeah, it was AMAZING by the way, I figured we could celebrate with Benson! Benson's birthday was May 3 and Brooks' was May 8, 5 days apart these cute boys are. We made a cake and opened a couple presents and called it a party!




A little hesitant at first...




...then he just went for it!


Our miniature Nathan right here.







and he's still going for it.








Lily and Kate



Daylen and Nathan







"Thank you, Thank you."







Finishing what fell from his tray, gotta get every last piece!



Yes, his birthday present was a toothbrush. He doesn't know the difference, right? :)







Ooohhh, now that's cool. So maybe he did like Benson's present better.




We love our sweet Brooks. I am having a harder time letting him grow up, I know how fast it goes and I want to keep him little! I think it will still be awhile before he is walking, which will help me think of him as a baby still. He has been my "mama's boy" and is a little more attached than my other kids have been. He is even starting to say "mama" his first word! He loves to watch his older brother and sister play, especially when they play with him. He has a great smile and some day he will have hair. :)




Tangled

Daylen and Kate love "Tangled," I don't blame them, I love it too. They love it so much they act out the movie when they aren't watching it. Can you guess what scene this is?

And just some recent pictures...

Around the house

We haven't really done a whole lot lately. The kids were all sick for a couple of weeks in January, and it's been so cold, we've just been home bodies. Maceys has had some good chicken sales, so I've been canning chicken. Other than that, we are just ready for Spring! I'm just posting some pictures we've taken recently so grandparents can see, and whomever else would like to. :)





Kate, on more than one occasion lately, has just put herself down for a nap when she's tired. I've gone looking for her and found this...




This is my coat from when I was a little girl. My mom saved it for me!

















Brooks' is getting a little personality. He started making this funny face the other day while I was feeding him. He also will shake his head "no" if he doesn't like what I'm feeding him. He thinks he's quite funny.





The end.

My Brookster

We had Brooks' pictures taken a few months ago when we were in Texas. Rachel's friend took them and I love. He fell asleep at the end of the session and we got some cute sleeping pictures. I love his big eyes and long eyelashes! He is such a sweet boy, can't imagine our family without him.




In honor of being in Texas :)

Around the house...

The other night I was feeding Brooks while Daylen and Kate took a bath. Kate got herself out of the bath, grabbed her towel, turned on the fire, and took a seat.


This last weekend Daylen wanted to make a tent and go camping in the family room. Brad was a good sport and camped out with them, the kids slept great, Brad didn't.








Yesterday Kate entertained Brooks by reading him her books she got at the library. It was pretty darn cute.
