Brynn's 1st Halloween
Ava really wanted to be a scary witch so she was the wicked witch of the west and Brynn was Glenda the good witch. My sweet babies :)
Ava never ceases to amaze me. She says the funniest things and every day it's something new!
Last week as we walked to Brynn's classroom to pick her up for the afternoon she said "mommy are you thinkin what I'm thinkin?" after chuckling that she actually just said that and wondering if she knew what it meant I said "I don't know what are you thinkin?" She said "I'm thinkin I can't wait to see my baby sister!!!"
One night while putting her to bed she said "mommy cover me up OTHERWISE I'll get cold" Yes she actually used the word otherwise in the right context.
Yesterday Steve went to the football game with some buddies and when he returned she said "Daddy, I didn't REALIZE you were going to be gone so long" Again she used the word realize in the correct context.
Mosquito's have been obsessed with Brynn and Ava said "mommy when that mosquito gets on my baby sister I'm going to tell him hey mosquito you don't bite my child!"
She's THREE years old, is this normal?? LOL

Brynn at 28-29 Weeks
My little twiddlebug is 100% sleeping in her own crib all night long! 7pm-7am, this morning until 8 a.m! It was a much easier transition than with Ava, but I'm still very sad. I do enjoy getting a good solid nights sleep though and I sure have missed sleeping on my stomach! I love going in to get her in the morning and watching her smile really big when she see's me.
She is doing great at school and they say that she is happy all day long and has been doing much better with her bottles. She doesn't even fuss when I leave, just sits down and plays. She even has a little boyfriend in the class named Jackson. He's an older man at 8 months old. Ava just loves him and loves to go visit him every afternoon. The teachers say that Brynn tries really hard to move to get to him and since she can't quite crawl after him she just rolls to him. It's too cute.
She also has a habit of pulling the other babies hair when they get near her and holding on with a death grip. Steve says you can tell who Brynn's friends are because they all have huge bald spots.
She is talking a lot now saying "gaga gaga" and I've noticed she loves cartoons. She is very interested in toys now and gets giddy when Ava plays with her. She still gets very happy and vocal when Ava is around. You can sit her down on the floor with some toys and she'll entertain herself for quite a while.

My baby is all growns up
She is sleeping in her own bed now. While I'm so proud of her, I'm also very sad. Why does it feel like I'm banishing my baby to Iceland by merely putting her in her crib? She rolls over on her tummy right away and I check to make sure she's still breathing about every 2 1/2 minutes.

Ava "playing"
Not sure why but when Ava plays it consists of placing every loose item within reach in the same small space. I don't get it. When I asked her what she was doing she said "getting ready for work" or that she's "makin a party". The good news is she puts it all back when she's done. She's very literal about it too because she will put it back EXACTLY where she found it, even it's not really where it belongs.
