This one is for the baby book

My, my, do I have some stories for my Miss Bry's baby book. I have been telling friends the last few weeks these funny things Miss Bry has been doing and saying. Each time I tell these funnies, they always respond by saying Darla you got to write this stuff down. So here it goes. I am also going to title these stories. So when she get bigger I will just have to call out the name and she know what I talking about without retelling the story.

#1 Big Girl panties

Brylie has been blessed with her Daddies assets if you get my hint. She is always complaining about how things feel or fit on her little bottom. This day was by no means any different. She was not liking anything she put on and was getting a little dramatic about it all. I finally asked her what was so wrong. She tried as best as she could to explain how when she walked or moved that it would go up. Then she would pull it down and then it would happen again on the other side. This is exactly what she said," Mommy I just need panties that cover both sides that way I don't have to keep pulling. I am getting so tired of these panties! I think my panties were made for little girls and I am a big girl now." So this made me do some research and find out if these panties were her size. Bry was so right they were little girl panties 4T. So we headed to the store to buy new panties. We got there and I found some cute princess and littlest pet shop panties. I held them up and said," How about these cute big girl panties?" If looks could kill I would be dead. She said," MOM, little girls wear princess on their panties,I am a big girl now! She picked out some plain Jane ones and that what we got. I wish I could say no more issues with our bottom and how things fit on it but no luck. I am still wondering how she knows what big girls wear. I must also say I was so very sad she will not be wearing little girl panties they are so much cuter.



#2 The Lie

Last Tuesday was the kids Little Hearts Christmas program. I hurried home and Matt had started dinner. We ate and bath and were getting the kids dressed and hair done. That is when Brylie started on me about taking her doll with us to the program. I kept telling her she could not take the doll. I did not want to hold the doll the whole time and she could not take it with her. She would not give up on it. (30 minutes of hounding) Brylie got so upset she ran to her room and started crying. I had to get to the core of this issue to find out why she was so set on bring this baby doll. Here is how it when:

B: Mom I just need you to let me take my baby
M: Why?
B: I can't tell you Mommy
M: Why? You can tell me anything
B: Well, the truff (truth) is I (pause) I (pause) told my friends you just had a baby and you would be bring it tonight. So please just wrap my baby up and carry it around. Please! Please!
M: Brylie I can't believe you told your friends that!
B: Mom, I'm serious you need to bring my baby!
M: I am not bring your baby doll
B: You have to or my friends will think I am a liar!
M: Well, Bry you are a liar by telling your friends that story.

Several minutes later of fits and crying Brylie got up from her bed and when into the bathroom and put soap on her toothbrush and brushed out all the lies so she would not be a lair anymore.

Countdown to Christmas

It seems year after year I am always in the same boat when it comes to Christmas. This year I tried to be a little more prepaired so far not so bad. Here is some pictures along with my Christmas prep to get everything ready for the BIG day


#1 Decorating the house
The kids were a big help this year. They really got into the Christmas spirit.











#2 Lights on the house
The kids were not much help here but Lawson sure wanted to help! Brylie talked him into riding around the yard while Daddy put up the lights.









#3 Fiinish Christmas shopping before T-day and get christmas cards out early. Still need a few more gifts till I am done. But have most of it done and wrapped under the tree. Here is our family pic from our Christmas card.









#4 See Santa
We went to Bass Pro Shop Santa Wonderland this year this place was awesome! The kids had tons of fun. We went with friends from church and Nana and Papa Dale came to meet us.

This time of year is so busy but I love it! I love all the memories we are making. I hope everyone is having fun getting ready for Christmas.

Tis' the season to WANT, WANT,WANT!!!!!!!

Here are my two little angels circling all the many things they want at Target. Too funny! Lawson's new saying is, " Mama, I want that", it can be anything from batteries to tools. He wants it all. The second picture is Brylie's and Matt's wish list they put on the fridge to help me this season.

Happy Thanksgiving

Mama's lil helpers

Happy Anniversary to the one I love!

Now



Then







I can't believe it will be our 7th anniversary tomorrow. In someways it seems we have been married a lot longer. I must say these are the best years of my life. Matt is all I ever wished for, or dreamed about. He is a great husband,awesome daddy and and wonderful best friend. Thank you mother for always praying for me to find Mr. Right.She always prayed that I would one day find someone who loves the Lord and would raise his kids loving and honoring our Lord. He loves me so much and always wants to spoil me.

Matt, I hope you never have to wonder how strong and deep my feelings are for you. I may have changed a little over the years, grown a lot, but what's been constant is how much I need you in my life. If my words sometimes fail me, always remember what's in my heart. You touch my soul... and always will. I love you!
