Must be Christmas

So it's that time of year again! It's our 1st Christmas in our house decorating it was lots of fun :)

No snow

Well it's December and there's still no snow, but who's complaining? Not me! Brooks had fun playing in the leaves and climbing the neighbors tree :)

The Tractor

Brooks' Grandparents got him this tractor, I thought it would be cute to do some pics with it

Time with the Fam

This weekend we took a trip down south, it was good to spend time with my Mom, Terry and my Grandparents. It was an unfortunate trip for Terry's Dad's passing, his funeral was on Tuesday.

I am very sympathetic for him I know how hard it is to lose a loved one, no matter how old you are. I hope he knows how much we love him

My grandma taught Brooks how to play Slap Jack, he did pretty good!

We also got to have lunch with Amy, it was very nice to see her and be able to catch up. She is always so helpful to me and I hope she knows how much I love and appreciate her.

Potty Time

Brooks has been doing great at using the potty! It was so funny, he needed to go number 2 and it was the 1st time in the potty and he kept getting up to look at it and he was so excited and he told me look Momma I made a circle! He indeed had I couldn't help but laugh. I wish you could see him do the potty dance after every time he uses the toilet we sing pee pee in the potty and he dances :)

Thankful for you!

This Thanksgiving we went to the park where Brooks watched his Daddy play a little flag football and we played on the playground, it was a very pretty day!

We spent the Afternoon at the In-laws and ate a scrumptious meal! Thanksgiving dinner is my favorite, I stuffed myself silly. We spent the rest of the night playing games with the family, it was fun.

As I think of all the things that I am thankful for I can not begin to thank God enough for Brooks! He is my life :) I don't know where I would be without him. I am thankful for Brandon and the great Dad that he is, I am so thankful for my Mom she is amazing! I am thankful for my brother and all of my beautiful friends (you know who you are) I truly am so blessed!

Scary Pumpkin!

Brooks was a little iffy about Halloween this year, His Aunt DeAnn and Uncle Ben took him to a Halloween party with his cousins and they were all dressed up in their costumes. He was frightened at first but ended up having a blast! On Halloween he didn't want to put his costume on he said it was scary (He was a pumpkin!!) and he was kicking and screaming the whole time I was putting it on him and he didn't want to trick or treat and did not want candy! Ah the terrible 2's they're so much fun ;) Eventually he warmed up to it and had a good time his grandma Trice and Papa Terry took him trick or treating and had a sleep-over

You are my sunshine!

Fun in the backyard

Brooks and I had so much fun playing croquet in the backyard! I had him name the colors of all the balls and he lined them up as he did it, he is a little OCD when it comes to playing with his toys or anything really! Everything has to be perfectly aligned. I think he gets it from my Mom and a little from me I guess :) it's just funny to see that part of his personality at such a young age, I love it!
Once he got bored of that we had a one sided grass fight! I lost obviously :)

Then we headed over to the swing set his Grandma Shell and Papa Tracy got him for his birthday. He had a riot climbing up the ladder and going down the slide a billion times! Until it was time to go in, the last picture tells you his reaction :(

The Circus Grandma Trice took us to the Circus! Brooks loved the elephants and the tigers, I was amazed at how well it all kept his attention! I took some really cute pics of them together. He left with a sugar high from his $12 bag of cotton candy!

YPuppy LoveY

Autumn, Sarah and I took Brooks and Jaycee to Wheeler farm, they were so cute. Brooks had a hard time sharing his meow meow with her but he was a good sport and I don't think Jaycee put it down for more than five minutes the whole time :)
