Brynnisms

Brynn says so much now, most of which are phrases she hears the rest of us say at some point.  Today in the car she had a full conversation that consisted of all sorts of phrases thrown in there.

Me:  Brynn do not talk over mommy while I'm talking
Brynn:  Dats not fair!
Me:  Maybe not but that's the rule
Brynn:  Dat not da rule!  You not da boss!

Magnum was in the car looking out the window and getting excited..
Brynn:  Magnum you gotta be patient, I twyin to concentate (concentrate)

Anytime you tell her no she responds with "peeze, just a little while or just a little bit"

Ava's Fun Run

Ava is participating in a fun run fundraiser at school where she will walk/run 35 laps.  She is doing this on Wednesday.  If you are interested in giving her a pledge to support her and her school you can do so here.  She gets a prize in PE for the amount of pledges she gets.

She asked that we "blog on to dot com and put money" so that she can win a prize in PE. 

Thanks to those of you who have already "blogged on" she's super excited and won a "braeslip" and an invisible pen last Friday.

We apologize that you don't get anything exciting in return for your donation like a chocolate bar, magazine subscription or a raffle to win a new bike.  :)

Color me impressed

So at our old preschool they sent home an update each day and Steve would always lose it on the way home. Well the NEW school has an amazing system.  As soon as Steve checks Brynn out for the day we get an e-mail with an update of Brynn's day!  They also include pictures from the day and today I actually got a video of Brynn dancing during music time.  I absolutely love this and of course I'm one happy Mama!

Today was her 2nd day and she did great!  She was very excited that she also has her own new school just like her big sis Ava.  One of her teachers names is Ashley and Brynn can't say Ashley so she calls her Blacksey.  At her old school one of her teachers names was Yesenia and Brynn couldn't say that so she just called her Steve.

Here is the report we got on her today:

Brynn's first day at her new school

Brynn was excited until we got into her classroom full of new things and new kids.  Then she got a little teary and "mommy I wanna go with you". Sniff sniff.  I stayed for a while and showed her all of the great things she'll get to do.  She was happily playing baby dolls when I left.

Meanwhile at home

Brynn was loving being the only child at home.  My mom came over one day and she had both grandmas all to herself.  Talk about Kid heaven!
