The house is unbelievably quiet. Greg has taken Adrianna and Bree to the Lego movie as a “Daddy/Daughter Date” and Cate is taking a nap. It is so rare for me to find myself at HOME by myself (well, almost by myself). I am loving it. But I suppose it is a good time to […]

Family Drawing
Bree tried her hand at drawing our family today. The face with what looks to be black horns is Mommy, with ‘black byettes’ on. haha! Told you she is obsessed with me wearing barrettes in my hair!
Flying
Another funny by Bree this afternoon: She was jumping up and down, and then said in a frustrated voice, “I’m not flying!” Then, clutching the back of her nightgown, she sadly said, “There’s no wings back ‘day-o.’” (‘day-o’=there) I’m going to have to keep an eye on this girl.
Bree and My Hairstyles
Tonight I overheard Bree talking to Adrianna, complaining about my current hairstyle. Bree: Mommy’s not wearing ‘bee-yetts” in her ‘hay-o.’ She’s wearing a headband. I don’t like Mommy wearing a headband in her ‘hay-o.’ She needs to wear ‘bee-yetts!’ And heaven help me if I dare to leave my room with my hair completely down. […]
Adrianna and Bree Singing
Adrianna is often found sitting at the keyboard, inventing new little melodies. She’s got a great ear for music. Once Adrianna has played a song once or twice, Bree can often be heard in the background singing along (with her own made-up words). Bree picks up tunes quickly. Here is one of Adrianna’s newer compositions. […]
Stock Show
The girls and I enjoyed a morning at the National Western Stock Show. Saw lots of horses (to Bree’s delight) and they both got to ride a couple ponies too. Other than a few melt-downs for Bree (most likely due to not enough sleep + over-stimulation from the many people, noises, and smells), it was […]
Potty Training Complete
I am pleased to announce that we now only have ONE child in diapers. Yippee! Just as in walking and talking, once Bree decides she is ready for something, she just takes off quickly! The key words being “once BREE DECIDES.” On Monday, January 6th, she had finally gone on the little potty after six […]
Working / Playing
Working / playing in the yard and garage. Greg is making more built-in adjustable shelves for our house. Watching Daddy work in the garage. Except for when the loud saw is in use, at which time she runs away.
Bree at Four Years old
Our Breezy girl is now FOUR years old. She still loves ponies, horses, seahorses, and unicorns and can play contentedly on her own for hours. She also loves books, puzzles, shapes, wheels, Legos, and watching things spin. If I am loading the girls up in the van and she thinks that a car nearby is […]
Sleepy
I went upstairs to check on Bree and this is what I found. I love that she even made herself a little bed first! And from earlier in the day, playing with ponies. (Of course)
