“Foot Stuck, Mommy”

So, she walks into the kitchen the other day and says, “foot stuck, help!” and then she laughed at her self! I love this kid! She is soo funny!

Eating corn for the 1st time

This weather, here in Chicago, has been INCREDIBLE… we were definitely spoiled last week with high 70’s mid 80 degree weather. This week, it has been beautiful, just chilly. During the warmer weather, I think we were pretending it was June, we BBQ’d, opened all the windows and were bummed when our corn was just OK…but then we came back to reality and realized…hello…its just MARCH…we still have 4 months before local corn is ready…  

Brin had her first ear of corn for dinner. She was VERY interested in it…for a few minutes, then her pickiness kicked in… but she is being more adventurous with her food lately…or you could also call it…falling for the brib…but lets just say adventurous!  

Family Movie Afternoon

On Saturday, we decided to have our 1st family movie time. We popped some popcorn, had pretzels and raisins and watched Toy Story 3. Brin did SUCH A GOOD job! She was soo into the movie. The look on her face in this picture is how she watched the WHOLE movie! She stood up only twice during the movie and never once got down to play with toys. I think the movie theater may be in our summer plans. I was totally impressed! It was SOOO much fun!

A few more have moved into our home…

No matter how hard we try, this girl LOVES her some stuffed animals!  She went into her bedroom, and one at a time, brought her animals into the kitchen and laid them on the floor. Then she played with each one of them, feeding, rocking, burping, just taking care of them. It was too cute…but WE are BEGGING you…NO MORE STUFFED ANIMALS as gifts! Thank  you and we LOVE you all!!

Double fisting already??

So, Brin goes into the refrigerator and says, “I want milk Mommy” So I give her the milk, then she sneaks in and grabs the water and says, “I want water too Mommy.” This is the result…She tried to drink like this for a good 5 minutes…I guess you can call it, making skim milk??!

 

Chocolate!

So, yesterday, about 6:45 AM, Nick and I are still in bed, Brin is in her bed and we hear her say, “I want chocolate, I want chocolate.” Now, mind you…she hand never knowingly had chocolate…so as we lay there and listen to her, she begins to change her statement to, “Mommy, I want chocolate”…she repeats this 3 or 4 times. We continue to lay in bed and just listen to her through the monitor and then her statement changes to “SUZ…I want chocolate”…we about died laughing!
