Where does all the time go???

Once again I have slaked on getting a birthday post up for one my kids. On the 21st of July Brooklyn had her 1st birthday. I can't believe how fast time goes.......where does it go?
Brooklyn is such a sweet little blessing in our lives she really does complete our little family. McKenzie & Bryson love to play with her Bryson usually gets too rough and ends up making her cry then he says "Mom I just playn' wif her" I think he feels bad that she cries but he is like a little bull. McKenzie has always liked to huge, kiss, & be right in her face she has of course grown to HATE it, McKenzie will get in her face and start talking to her and Brooklyn will just scream and swing her arms sometimes she hits her I'm sure I would do the same thing if someone was always in my face like that. They really do love their baby sister she is pretty special to them they have never tried to give her away. Through the past year she has gained a few nick names: Brookie, Flower, Polka Dot, Skunk Toes Sister (Curtis' s mom calls Bryson Skunk Toes), Blue Eyes, Tiny, & Daddy's Girl (she really is one, big time) I think that is all of them none have really stuck but I have a few that I like best. We celebrated her and Bryson's birhdays together because they are so close she had a great time eating her cake and ice cream a made a huge mess for us to clean up but that is ok that wouldn't be much fun if they didn't make a mess. I really hope I can get some pictures downloaded of their party but for know I better go so I can get my sweet little girl down for a nap. We all love you Brooklyn!!

Happy Birthday Bryson

One the 13th we celebrated Bryson's 3rd birthday. We didn't get to do too much because we where on our way home from the Stamp's family reunion. We did have a small party with Grandma & Grandpa Schneider, Melissa & her boys before she had to be back home. At the family reunion I saw a side of Bryson I didn't know he had. They had an open microphone in the dinning hall where we ate dinner every night & every time he got the chance he was up there singing the ABC's. I thought the kid was shy, but I guess I was wrong. I love to hear my little boy sing it is the sweetest, my favorite is "I Am A Child of God" it makes me cry every time. I tried to get him to sing it on video but he would never do it. I'll keep trying because it is sooo sweet. Bryson is all boy he loves tractors, trucks, motorcycles, trains, really anything that goes and he loves to get dirty his favorite is the mud. I can tell him 100 times to stay out of the mud and he just can't do it. Just like last summer he has spent a lot of time in the tractor with Curtis once he is out there it's hard to get him back home. He does really well when he's in the tractor he will even take a nap. Curtis has been sitting him on his lap to "let him drive" he thinks that is pretty cool. Well I think that is about all for now after we have a party for my side of the family I'll see if I can get a few pictures posted. We all love you Bryson and I hope you had a great birthday!! Here is a short video of him singing, of course, the ABC's he has been able to do this for about 4 months.
