Little Yay-Hoo's

He was being so playful and laughing so hard, I had to catch it in action.

Nothing better!

Beckam just being cute.

I have to laugh when I see this picture because it's her angry face...or feisty face, I call it.

Beckam exploring a ball he can actually hold, he's totally amazed.

Glorious Pink!

Raise your hand if you like pink!

Brooklyn was sitting on the patient's table waiting to be casted when the nurse came in with a color swatch of all the possible colors to choose from. Well, the wonderful world of colors that the nurse presented to her were not in the least bit tempting- the nurse asked "What color do you want?" Brooklyn sank back kind of shy and didn't say anything, so the nurse turned around to prepare all the materials. Brooklyn quickly leaned toward Jason and enthusiastically whispered "I want a pink one". As soon as she said it she smiled like this was the coolest thing in the world.

So, pink it is- hands down!

Broken arm or not, there's always room for a little bit of football!

Brooklyn saying farewell to the splint and on to the cast.

Brooklyn's Broken Arm!

This was Brooklyn waiting in the Primary Children's ER room. X-rays had just confirmed she bent one bone in her wrist and fractured the other. Luckily some kind police department donated a nice ride which kept Brooklyn occupied for at least 3 of the 6 hours we were there.


This is how her poor little arm looks now...all bandaged up. This is her temporary splint until the swelling goes down; she'll get her cast on next week :(

As you can see she is still climbing up on everything acting like nothing is wrong at all....I even caught her drawing on the table when I snapped the picture!

How did she do it? She fell down our Uncle's porch stairs. It didn't take too many stairs to fall down, just a bad landing and this is what happened!

She is handling it surprisingly well. She never complains about the splint, although this morning I went to get her out of her crib and she had taken it off-even the splint underneath the ace bandages! She smiled a huge smile at me and said "Wow mom, look what I did"

Friday Family Date

Brooklyn and Beckam playing nice together...ready for a night out on the town.

Little Beckam staring at the big lights above him, he was in awe.
You can't see it, but there are lots of lights flashing in the background and a disco ball circling- Brooklyn was spinning around with her arms sticking straight out, dancing, right below. I've got to teach her some new moves.

TAG: I'm it!

This is actually my number 6

I messed up and accidentally put it up here and I don't want to take the time to fix it.

I've been tagged the most embarassing tag (thanks Sabrina), it's called the "Real Life Picture Tag".

The Rules: The rules are you have to take ten pictures of the following things. And you have to do it RIGHT AWAY. No straightening, cleaning or wiping your child's nose. No Cheating

...so here they are, me and my real life pictures.

1. What are your kids doing right now?

Napping. I didn't get a picture of Brooklyn napping because she is a light sleeper and would wake up as soon as I got a toe in.

2. The Kitchen Sink...as is

There has to be a bottle hangin' around, of course.

3. Favorite Room

This is our extra room that we haven't done a single thing with...that's why I love it, we just lounge in it, jump on the beds, store diapers :) and it cleans up nicely when we have company staying over.

4. Self Portrait

5. favorite pair of shoes

I actually don't shoe shop very much, but these are so comfy and so me

6. The Closet

This is my half of the closet anyway

(see the top picture)

7. Laundry Room

It's more like "laundry space" for right now

8. The Pantry

This is one half of the pantry. I couldn't back up enough to fit in our 12 lb. bag of flax seed!

9. The Refrigerator

10. The Bathroom

For some reason, the bathroom wouldn't pull up...darn

Okay, happy that's over!

I guess I'm supposed to tag someone, but I feel mean tagging one this embarrassing...oh well no one really cares right? So, I guess I'll tag Jeni...she has a good sense of humor. You're it!

Go Cougars!

Jason took Brooklyn on a little daddy-daughter date to the BYU game.

She was chanting B-Y-U Coug-a's all day after that and is still chanting it.

This was the game that the Coug's won 59 to 0 against UCLA ...all i can say is

GO COUGARS!!!!!!

Brooklyn and Aunt Amanda

Since the rest of Jason's siblings are still at BYU, we get to meet up with them when we go down.

Daddy and Brooklyn- she had so much fun!

This was Brooklyn hanging out, taking a rest during the tail-gate party.

...and resting again, vertically still. It's all the rest she needs.

Beckam's Blessing Day

My mom and sisters: Yvette, Veronica, me, and Treva

and my neice, Aliah, down below

Jason and his long lost cousin, Ben. It's sadly true, but an amazing and beautiful story. It already seems like we've always known him!

Jason's uncle Mark, cousin Mary, aunt Cynthia, and grandma

Brooklyn wearing her tiara like it's her sunglasses instead.

My fam
Nicholas and Brooklyn

Nick is a second cousin to Brooklyn but look like they could pass for brother and sister

Uncle Mark, Aunt Trish, Sierra, Nicholas, and baby Jaden

This was Brooklyn all day at the brunch- glued to the soccer ball.

This was how it looked behind.

Aunt Rev and B-Kate

Beckam was blessed in the same outfit his daddy was blessed in 28 years ago!
