Hear dat

Brylee's newest phrase is "Did you hear that?" She says it all the time and it's oh so cute. I don't know where she picks up some of the things she does, but it's so fun! And she's got some sweet hair and a messy face to add to the total effect. :)

Bry's first ski day! This is the only video we took, but she went all the way up to the big hill, chairlift and all! So fun. Thanks mom and dad!

Roller Skating Christmas week with my fam in Idaho Falls!

Catch up time

A lot has happened in the past month, so here's a great big catch up bloggy with lots of pics and videos of my cute little Bry Bry.

Fall has come and gone and so have all the leaves...

And now we're on to Christmas! The day after Thanksgiving, my family went to Salt Lake City to see the Christmas lights at Temple Square. It was so fun to be there with all the cousins!

We went swimming at the hotel and Kenny and Dax taught Brylee how to cannon ball! Good times.

Then we went out to Malta for Grandpa Barrett's funeral. We miss you Grandpa!

She's already learned how to be oh so photogenic and adorable...

Then it was time to meet Bridger at the Airport! I can't believe it's been two years already!

The girls waited anxiously to see Uncle Bug again! (Bry was 3 weeks old when he left so she was really attached to him)

But of course Mama Sue was the first and most excited. Welcome Home Bugga!

Look at these cute boys.

Soon to be roommates and best buds! :)

All the brothers!

All the kiddos. We love Bridger!

And before ya know it, it's time to see Santa! I wouldn't say she was THRILLED, but it was definitely an improvement from last year!

Then we opened presents on Christmas Eve Eve with Grandma Blanche and Grandpa Leon before we left town. Big Hugs!

Thanks for the Jammies! This is where the shorts go, right?

Then it was Christmas morning!!! We were out in Malta with Grandma Sue and Grandpa Joe. Look what Santa brought me! Thanks for a GREAT Christmas G-ma and G-pa!

This is the face of Christmas Cheer!

And then we were off to Hollywood... oh wait. I mean Idaho Falls.

To open even more presents! Thanks G-ma Cherie and G-pa Dave for all the great gifts! Bry kept on saying "Oh my!" with every new present that was opened. For some odd reason, she was REALLY excited when Daddy opened a new pair of slippers. She jumped up and down with her hands in the air yelling "Oh my oh my oh my!" That's actually what I did too when I opened my new Kitchen Aid Mixer!!! Thanks a million Mama and Dada! Our lives are changed forever!

And a big Thanks to Bry's future hubby Aiden and future in-laws - Jessica and Branden for the CUTE bows and new clothes for baby brother!

Then it was time for a new adventure. When all the cousins arrived at G-ma Cherie's, we went roller skating! Look at that excited face!!!

Little miss Penny was quite the skating Pro from the start! It was so very fun to see Steve and Jess and Penny!

And Kenny, Dax, and Ashlyn of course showed Bry how it's done.

Bry didn't like it at first so Daddy just carried her around the skating rink. Not sure why both of their eyes are closed, but hey, they're all smiles!

But eventually, she got the hang of it and had a GREAT time! The key was the she had to do it ALL by herself. I couldn't help her stand up, hold hands, nothin. Lil' miss independent required absolute all by herself-ness. Shocker, right?

The next day, it was time for another new adventure! Brylee's first time SKIING!!! We went up to Kelly Canyon and rented the smallest pair of skis they had and got her the cutest season pass you'll ever see! And away she went! She actually did REALLY well! She even rode the chair lift up to the big hill and skied all the way down Skier's Lane - part of it all by herself! It was so stinking fun! Thanks Mom and Dad for taking us.

Then there was time for one final adventure... riding horses! Auntie Whitney was so nice to let us go play with her horses. Unfortunately, Bry was all adventured out and refused to ride. Oh well, maybe when I can ride with her this summer. It was still fun. Thanks Whiddy!

We had such a wonderful holiday season! Lots and lots of parties and time with family. We are so lucky to have such great families that live so close by.

And now we move on to 2012! Time to make way for this little guy! Can't wait for March 26th! (But wouldn't it be cool if he was born a few weeks early on Leap day?!)

It's big sister time!

And finally, here's a cute end of the year photoshoot of our little princess!

Happy New Year Everyone!

(PS - I have like 10 super cute videos I want to post but I can't get them to upload. They load for like 25 minutes and then say it can't be done. They're only like 30 sec to a min long... Any suggestions?)

Happy birthday two Bryee!

She's TWO! Can you believe it? On Saturday morning, it snowed for the first time this year!!! So we got up and played in the snow! Pebbles, has not seen snow before and thought it was the best! Bry had a great time sledding!

Her official b-day was yesterday, but we threw her a little party last week. It was a Dora adventure... since Dora is Bry's bestie. We ate yummy food with lots of family, g-parents, aunts and uncles and cousins! Then the little kiddos went on a Dora adventure to find the cupcakes! They got out Dora's map and had to go under the coffee table, through the tunnel, and into the fort to find the cupcakes! It was so fun!

Then they played pin the tail on Swiper. The blindfold was not a big hit, so they did without :)

Then, we had cake and cupcakes! Messy faces all over the place! Isn't this Dora cake cute?!

Brylee did not like getting too messy, so when Daddy stuck her hand in the cake and rubbed it on her face... she was NOT pleased!

Then we opened presents! She got lots of GREAT stuff. The dancing Dora doll and the puzzles from the G-ma's and G-pa's were the favorites, I think :)

It was so fun! Thanks to all who came and made it a wonderful celebration for our wonderful TWO YEAR OLD! Happy Birthday Brylee! We love you!!!!
