2.5

I realized today when I was picking Brynn up from Preschool that she has been there for 6 months now....which means that she is just about to hit the 2.5 year old mark!

lets see, what can I say about brynni brynn.

well, for one thing, we really feel like we have gotten over the huge bump(hill) that is the most difficult part of the terrible twos. We can now reason with our little girl and when we explain WHY the answer is no, she may not like it, but she doesn't rip sh** up like she used to...so that's a relief!



She is incredibly conversational...I love hearing her "stories"...mainly about school...and when she gets a hold of a story, especially one that gets a reaction, she repeats, repeats, repeats.

For example...one time, Chad and his friend watched the 4 kids while the moms when out for dinner...well, the little boy, Thomas, grabbed a knife off of the kitchen counter and scratched Brynn with it(we are talking microscopic scratches)...of course the dads where right there and stopped it immediately...and Thomas got a serious time out...it was pretty scary to hear the story, but no harm no foul. Well, Brynns story goes like this:

"Thomas knife! Thomas cut, ouchie my arm, scratch my arm...Thomas time out, time out Thomas! Thomas Ouchie"

Well, now anytime we say Thomas' name we get the story. But she has not let the abuse deter her...I guess she likes her men rough...

Her favorite catch phrase is "Awe MAAAAAN!" and she says it all exaggerated its hilarious!


She loves to sing. If she isn't eating, sleeping, or talking, she is singing. She loves to sing. She will sit in front of the computer with Chad or I on you tube ask us play songs over and over and she will try to learn the words. Right now her favorites are "In the Jungle" and "I like to move it move it"

In the car she will sing the whole way there and if you try to sing along she will say "Stop it! I sing!"

She is recently obsessed with names, today in the car she was asking me:

whats Mommy name?
whats Daddy name?
whats Audrey name?

Then she will repeat our names:
Chad : "Chat"
Kristin: "Sitsing"
Audrey: "Ahjee"
Brynn: "Bin"

What else...oh yes: Her Hair:

I am debating over what to do about her hair...

Its so cute and gorgeous...but its always in her face, and she refuses to keep it in a pony tail or anything else. So I am considering cutting it, but I am so attached to those gorgeous long curls...and I am also scared about having to deal with up keeping those bangs...I am just holding out hope she will soon become obsessed with having her hair up nice and pretty (hey, it could happen!)

As I mentioned earlier, she has been at preschool for 6 months now, and she is doing great! She has learned so much and her school really has so many great things:
Spanish Music
Kids on the move
they have parades and picnics that the parents can come watch
In the summer, they will have water slide day where they rent one of those big water slide thingys and the kids have a blast!
Art, tons of art.
I really can't say enough about her preschool, I am just so happy we decided to put her in it!

I love going to pick her up at the end of the day and watching her run around with her friends. Its so cute how they play pretend. The other day they were running around pretending to drive cars, and all of a sudden one of them yelled out: "Lets eat Marshmallows!" and the girls cheered out it unison "YEAH!" and they ran over to these colored ball things on the play ground and pretended to eat them like marshmallows.

So thats about all I can think of, she is just such a doll, the light of our lives. I am so blessed to have her as my daughter.

Here is a picture of mommy and daughter...I am not sure I like my editing...what do you think?
