Dear Nana...

I've taken your advice very seriously...notice that's my thumb deep in my mouth...a new habit I've started when my soother's fallen out.  Mommy thinks it's pretty cute :)  Love you!

xox, Brynlie

Smiles all around

Some smiles to brighten your evening or day :)

 Such special little ladies!

Thanks for looking :)

All in a day's work

The work continues...
I spent several days last week at our new house, painting, cleaning, and getting things done.

On Saturday, I was VERY VERY thankful for a helper :) We painted all of the window and corner trim boards for outside...

My dear helper also brought Starbucks...Chelsie enjoyed her first 'kids hot chocolate' a whole lot!
Look at what we accomplished! THANKS, Meliss!
Work was broken up by lunch time, chatter time for Chelsie :),

and snuggle time!
Very happy to have such a happy picture of me with my little ladies :)


While we worked in the basement, things were happening upstairs too...the painters took a couple of days to paint the whole house (how I wish I could do it that fast!)and these guys were putting up trim, between conversations about how math is taught to kids these days :) If you could see that sheet of plywood, it has quite the mathematical explanation of today's learning techniques!!
And outside, painting was also getting done...


A closer shot of my hardworking man :)

So, things continue to progress :) We look forward to moving in hopefully before Christmas! Hope you can come visit sometime! I'll keep you posted.
