Dinner at Chili's

So tonight Jeremy and I decided to have a night out. (not alone....just out) London was at a birthday party so we ventured out with the always entertaining, Brooklyn. She is the busiest child you have ever seen during dinner in a restaurant- nothing goes untouched. We wrestle her back and forth the entire time we are eating. Some of you might be saying, "make her sit in a high-chair she has to learn." Guess what? I agree completely. However, I want to enjoy my dinner and so does everyone else around us. Not listen to her screaming momma with her hands stretched out like I am being so neglecting to her. So instead we tag-team back and forth. And for the most part it works. Well, tonight she grabbed her own fork and commenced to feeding herself Jeremy's philly cheesesteak sandwich. She loved it!!! She ate like it was her last meal! We cracked up. She would not stop. For once I had my camera and began snapping some shots. It was a moment worth remembering..

Upward Cheerleading

Ok. So this is it. I am done for the night!!!! Not the month.. just the night. Every Tuesday and Saturday we are cheering until the end of March. Yeah!!! London loves it!! Brooklyn runs crazy for an entire hour during the games and by the time we are done I am completely beat. Go UPWARD!!!!

Brooklyn's Room

I don't think I have shown off Brooklyn's new wall mural yet. This is so awesome. The colors seem a little off in the picture, but if you can't tell the room is hot pink and the tree is a chocolate brown. My cousin painted it in one day and even better, he painted it for free!!!!! Big Heart You, Ken!!! You Rock!!!

The Sweetest thing...

London is such a smart girl. She has become such a good reader this year. One of my most favorite times at night are when London is reading and Brooklyn is all over her trying to get close and soak up everything she is saying. London is very patient with her.....most of the time.

Christmas with all of the families....

Christmas was good this year. We love it, but are always happy to say goodbye until next year. To be honest I can't even remember what all we did because it has been so long ago.......haha. So I am just going to post a few pics and move on!!!!

Meet Marley "Mars" Crites

Marley, is our new Golden Retriever that Santa magically brought. Needless to say I was not as excited as the girls were in the beginning. He has grown on me over time though, and he is by far the smartest dog we have ever owned.

Where do I start?????????

I have been soooo very lazy with my blogging. Thank you, Angie, for pointing that out to me every single day. So here we go. A month of catching up. We have been busy. Since Christmas, we have gotten a new dog, London has began cheering (every Saturday), Jeremy has started a new job, Brooklyn is running now, and I have quit Smoking!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So we have had a year already full of new beginnings!!!
