BFF

I haven't posted anything lately because there hasn't been a whole lot going on here. Now that the holidays and birthdays have passed, it's hard to follow those up with just a normal, everyday post. But that's what has been going on here, just a lot of normal everyday days. Brooks is walking up a storm, and has the bruises to prove it. He is building his vocabulary daily which now includes: Mama, Dada, Addy, dog, bye-bye, car, ball, book, and snack ("na"). His mischievous grin and excitement at life keep me smiling. Adalynn is also coming up with new ways to get into trouble. Yesterday she tore up four pages of a library book when she was supposed to be napping. After discipline was administered and she had a firm talking-to, which included the fact that we wouldn't be going to the library again for a LONG time, she said, "maybe we can just go to some stores and stuff." I gave her a big hug to hide the fact that I was trying not to laugh. And today I made some jello. Again, not real exciting, but the three-year-old mind is always working. She sees her mommy at the counter, lovingly stirring red deliciousness, and comes up with words that just make me melt: "Mommy, you're my best friend!" Sweet Adalynn, please don't ever grow up!
