Brody and Brynn's 2nd Birthday

On Saturday, we celebrated B and B's 2nd birthday at our house with our families. Thank you to everyone for the great gifts. B and B are in toy heaven! We have been asking them how old they are and Brody says, "two!", and puts both his index fingers together to make "two". It makes me laugh everytime he does that! When we ask Brynn how old she is, she says, "no!", so there you have that:)

Last Week Being 1 Year Old

B and B have really been keeping us busy! Brynn has not been feeling well this past week, but even being a little "under the weather" doesn't seem to slow her down much. A lot of people have asked me what they are going to be for Halloween. Brody is going to be a vampire and Brynn is going to be a spider. We have been working with them to say "trick-or-treat", which they translate as, "triter TREEEEAT!" It is quite cute! We have a big weekend coming up with their 2 year birthday party and Halloween. We had a lot of fun cheering for the Tigers Saturday night. Congrats to MU for their HUGE victory over OU! What a great game!

They're Always Up To Something...

Brynn thought it would be a good idea to smear toothpaste in her hair: B and B taking a ride on the vacuum:

Carolyn's Country Cousins Pumpkin Patch

Today, we took B and B to Carolyn's Country Cousins Pumpkin Patch in Liberty. There were all kinds of things for kids to do there. They had a petting zoo, mazes, pig races, train ride, hay rides, slides, and numerous play areas. B and B had a lot of fun and enjoyed running all over the place!

A Lot of "Firsts"

Brynn found her first worm this weekend. They had a lot of fun inspecting it! It's so fun to see the excitement and curiosity in their faces when they discover new things! They also got to frost sugar cookies for the first time today. Surprisingly, Brody made more of a mess than Brynn! B and B have had a lot of "firsts" it seems like lately. I transferred to a new position at KU a couple of weeks ago. I am now working at the Westwood campus in the Outpatient Radiology department. I really like my new job, but it has been quite the adjustment working 5 days a week. This is the first time since they have been born that I haven't been at home with them atleast a couple days during the week. B and B have started going back to their previous daycare one day a week. I think it's good for them to get out of the house and to have social interaction with other kids. They seem to really like it there too. Bryan got promoted about a month ago to the maintenance department at the Kohls Distribution Center. He likes his new position also, but we have both realized that him working nights will definitely not be a permanent thing for us. However, he is getting to spend a lot more time with B and B:)
