My life...


I could go on and on... but I think you get the point... :-)

Life has been a bit slow around here, and I'm not complaining.

Samantha literally tells me everyday how many days she's been in school now... which makes me wonder... does her teacher have some sort of countdown in the classroom (like she is already eagerly awaiting summer) or is Sam really that smart and good with numbers.  I'm going to venture a guess and say it's the former and not the latter, however at this point I wouldn't put anything past Samantha.

Brody's eyes are doing so great.  At the follow up appointment the doctor was VERY pleased with the results and actually shared with me that very rarely do they do this much surgery on one little patient... meaning that Brody had both eyes operated on, both inside and outside muscles of both eyes were cut/repaired and that is not very common.  Sure, now you tell me this doc!!!  But, it was well worth it and he seems to be able to focus on things right in front of him rather than having to look at everything with his head turned to the side.

Brookie, Brookie, Brookie... holy spit-fire.  There is so much crazy, feistiness balled up into that teeny little girl than I have ever seen.  She will fight back with her older sister, no problem, but Brody knows just how to push her buttons and she won't dare try to fight back... he is way too rough with her... it's so sad but I can only imagine this is what my brother and I were like when we were this age.

Scott will be taking his all important nursing test tomorrow... wish him lots of luck!  Unfortunately the one night he needs to get a good nights rest to be at his best, I'm sure he'll be up most the night pacing back and forth with his nose in his medical encyclopedia.  

As for me, well... if I can survive another day I'll consider myself lucky... or at the very least, CRAZY!!

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]
