Dig in Baby

Brooklynn figuring out what this wet and squishy stuff is:) Literally two seconds after having both hands wrist deep in the mud she had the fingers in her mouth trying out the stuff!! Unlike Beau she only did it once and had enough!! That's MY girl:)

Brooklynn's first MUDDY experience

Levi decided it was time for Brooklynn to experience the best feeling in the world:) MUD!!! and boy was she in heaven:) She is without a doubt my husband's daughter. Our family had the best time sitting under the tree playing in mud!! We would have stayed all night had the mosquitos not eaten us out!!! I have to just post a few more pictures to do this special time justice:) I'm so grateful for my wonderful family and love the fact that some of our best times spent are like tonight.. Under a tree in playing in mud!!!!

If you look close enough you will see on the center bottom section of beau's t-shirt a section of gooo... well that my friends is beau's SNOT... Over the course of time I guess my son has watched my husband's horrible habit of blowing his nose on the "inside" of his lower shirt when not around kleenex and decided to follow in his footsteps... This picture is proof of how proud the two BOYS were of this moment!!! This is where I have learned to throw my hands up in the air and say BOYS WILL BE BOYS... along with GROSS!!!

My First Day as a Blogger

Today was a day of much decision making and planning for the near future!!! I have had a few health issues that are quite frustrating to be honest and we are trying to come up with a plan to help me get on the "healthier" track of life. I have had to slow things down in my life very abruptly and for good:( This was done with the idea that it would help my fainting/seizure episodes to slow down and we have yet to see progress!! I am getting a really good dose of "patience" and realizing that things take time and don't happen over night!!! It's been a very humbling experience to say the least!!! Thankfully my children are amazing and have been angels thru this all and for that I am truly grateful!!! Levi couldn't be more hands on even if he wanted to and is totally supportive of any changes that have/need to take place!!!
I had a great day yesterday!!! Did the typical lunch with mom and judy, came home for naptime, went shopping and had dinner with one of my best friends and then came home to put kids to bed. I got Brooklynn in bed and when I came out found Beau in the kitchen with a pen he had bust open and was spilling ink all over the floor. I remember going to get a paper towel to clean it and the rest of the night is history???
Levi came home to find me on the kitchen floor passed out and Beau huddled over me saying, "mama - fall down and go BOOM":(
SO as you can imagine it's very frustrating to have this going on and not be able to control it?!? I know God will see us thru this and eventually we will be ok, but boy oh boy I'm ready for the crazy stuff to end!!!
So there is the life of Brooke as of yesterday and today:) isn't it lovely!!!
My future blogs will be more of family and kiddos but like my friend Eleisha told me.. this is great therapy:)

Newby

Ok I am totally new to this blogging thing, but apparently it's the thing to do!! I had some friends tell me to do this so they could keep up with me but never just got around to it!!! So here I go I guess!!! I am very excited to keep up with everyone although most people have facebook and I do that there!! This just seems like it'll be fun to post our daily/weekly/monthly activities!!!
So tonight I will do my first official BLOG of the day:) he he
