Just 7 short years ago I married my best friend and boy am I glad I did! I love him even more today than I did then. He is such a great father, husband, and truly my best friend. He keeps me laughing most of the time and I love him more and more each day. Happy Anniversary Babe!
My how time flies when you're having fun! We had a great 4th of July hanging out with family and lighting fireworks
This is how Brooklyn spends most of her days lately..
Shopping at Grandma's store, talking on the phone while playing with babies, or playing with the mega marble machine! She is definately the highlight of our lives! I am beginning to understand more and more of what she is saying and she just cracks me up! She loves talking on the phone, playing with baby dolls, picking on Copper, playing with marbles, dancing and singing, and being the center of attention! She is constantly saying "mom watch!" when she says this I am not allowed to take my eyes off of her for even a second or she starts all over again with whatever it was she was showing me! She loves to be outside and of course riding the four wheeler and dad's new dirt bike. She is becoming quite the "daddy's little girl" which makes it very heartbreaking when he leaves for his work week. She loves every kind of fruit she has ever tried, broccoli, pasta, and especially chocomik! I am constantly worried if she's eating enough cuz she's such a scrawny little thing (she's in the 2% for her ages' weight!) but it hasn't seemed to slow her down at all! I am hoping she will soon be more interested in becoming a big girl and going potty on the toilet (ANY suggestions would be MUCH APPRECIATED!!!!!) She loves having books read to her and we are currently working on learning her colors. And her hair is finally getting long and thick enough to try some cute styles... Love It!!
We're gearing up for a camping trip this weekend for a family reunion and hopefully it won't take me quite as long to finally blog about it, but until then...

hey, I was looking at the calender this morning and noticed it was your anniversary. Congratulations on making it this far!! Hope to see you sometime in the near future!
Your little girl is so cute!! I'm sorry I can't help you with the potty training portion of the program. :)
Happy Anniversary! Our 7 year was on the 18th. I didn't realize they were so close together! Congrats.
Wow, congrats on 7 years. We're all getting a little bit older now, huh?! Brooklyn is so cute!! She's such a GIRL :) I just love it. And as far as potty training, I say just let it happen when SHE'S ready. I have done that with all my kids and they (so far) have trained WAY fast because it's their idea and they're ready for it :) :) Don't push it too much, just introduce it. {hope you don't mind my 2 cents}
Happy anniversary, didn't realize it had been that long! What a cutee pie you have! I'd go along with Taralee's advice on potty training, (it is sooooo much easier that way). We just barely finished that experience, so to add my own two cents I'd say keep it positive. I don't know if it helps potty train any faster, but I think it helps your attitude and your relationship with your child stay positive and strong through it.
I only learned that on the last one. (I won't admit to anything I did while potty training Lindsay) Potty training took just as long with Ella, it just wasn't as hard, because I expected the accidents and rejoiced in the accomplishments.
And BRIBE, BRIBE, BRIBE...we used m&m's with Ella, she loved it! Good luck with it, hope she learns fast and you have good memories associated with it.
Happy Anniversary!
As for he potty advice, I need some too. My 5th kid and she is stubborn! You'd think I knew what I was doing by now, but nope!
Have fun camping!
