Can't forget about our little man...

So much blogging about the girls I don't want to forget about the coolest kid in this house... B-dawg, Bubba, Bro-wee (that's what Brooke calls him)... or as he is mostly referred to as... BRODY!

This kid is my little man and is such a delight and really just the best kid ever.  Today we met with his eye specialist (as we have been doing every 3-5 months since he was born) to discuss what we are to do next about his nystagmus (I know, it sounds contagious, but it's not :-).

And well the doc used the 'S' word repeatedly during our entire appointment... that word being SURGERY.  Yikes, I know... he's not even 2yrs yet and this will be his 2nd time going under general anesthesia.  But, his doc is great and we really trust and believe that he knows what he's doing and he really does care about Brody.  The surgery is outpatient and it's really not as invasive as I thought it would be.  So, August 19 you will find me pacing back and forth in the waiting room at Banner Desert Hospital; even as I write this my heart is pounding and my stomach starts to turn - but knowing that this surgery will help him and give him the chance to see much better and be "normal", what mother would do it or want this for their baby.

Whoa baby, it's been a lonnnng time!

OK, here we go... my attempt to play catch up... Scrolling down you see it was just a few posts ago that I was so proud of my new lil 2nd grader. Well as time so often does it just flew right by and we just wrapped up 2nd grade year... watch out 3rd grade. As tradition in our house here is Sam's mini shoot commemorating her 2nd grade year.

Wee little princess...

Oh man, where does one begin to describe our little peanut. For starters I still get a kick out of the random folks that ask me almost weekly what the age difference is between the B's... then the genuine look of shock and awe when I tell the unsuspecting person that they are in fact twins. Let's see...what else about Brooke... -She bounces EVERY where she goes...she can never just walk places she has to twirl, bounce, you name it -She is the most amazing UNtrained dancer EVER...at least that's what her Grandma Herrick would say! -She has the most loving heart I have ever witnessed...loves and cares so unconditionally -Wants to be just like her big sister in the worst way -Has my chin...and it's soooo cute! -Her prayers will melt your heart...no joke! -Still prays everyday that her Grandma will be strong and healthy and we don't dare correct her -Always wants to be on the go and constantly asks to go to the mall -Has the sweetest bond with her bro and I...

Random photos...

Whenever I have a photo shoot planned at my house in my little “studio” I always beg and plead with the kiddos to sit for just a second so that I can get the lights and set up just right before the actual shoot. Well, in doing that, I always end up with the most random of photos... ENJOY! [taken December 2011]
