Time with Grandparents

On Valentine's Weekend Brycen spent time with Granny Lu and Papa Ron. He had a great time bowling, hanging out, and fixing things!

Valentine's Day Party

Well I wish I would have been able to go to Brycen's Valentine's party but since I was working I didn't get to go. I left my camera and Mrs. Miada took some pictures for me. If any of you know Mrs. Miada or have heard some of the stories I have told about her, these pictures might be funny. Mrs. Miada has ALL her kids in line. It is a VERY structured environment that my kid LOVES! She even has him speaking two languages for some things like hold me, trash, medicine and a few other random words)

Anyway I am really not sure what is going on in this first picture. I am guessing it is something they do before they eat???

Mrs. Miada said she let each kid take turns passing out their Valentines.

Looks like it is Brycen's turn. He has to do everything just like the BIG kids!





Oh, looks like a got a pencil!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Prayers Please

My good friend Mila had a baby four weeks ago. She has been in Washington Regional Medical center in Fayetteville for the past week with RSV. Baby Paige is currently in ICU and is not improving so they are working to move her to Children's Hospital in Little Rock. Please pray the weather will clear up so the Children's Hosptial plane can make it safely to get her and Mila and Dean can arrive in Little Rock safely as well. Also pray for the doctors and Paige as they work to get her well.
Thanks

Big Helper!

Brycen is such a big helper lately! I was so excited today because I got the candy for Brycen's Valentine Bags. He put everything in each bag one by one and repeated the name that I told him was on the bag.

He signed each Valentine with his name!

Speaking of helper, Brycen likes to do ANYTHING and EVERYTHING that his dad does. This past week, Brad was going stir crazy and we found him outside shoveling the driveway.

A few minutes later, Brycen was assisting!

Our First Sledding Adventure

Today we went sledding with the neighbors. It was so much fun! Brycen loves being out in the snow.

Even Mommy and Daddy took a turn. It didn't go as fast as we thought it would.

Brycen took turns with ALL the girls!

And daddy of course!

Snow Storm 2010

Today was a snow day!! Our power went out for a few hours this morning. Brycen wanted to take a nap on his nap mat. We let him lay in front of the fire to stay warm!

We let Brycen go outside in the snow for a few minutes today. It was cold and windy and B is a little under the weather so we didn't stay long. We are hoping to get out tomorrow.

I think we have a little over five inches of snow so far. It's still coming down. So thankful we didn't get as much ice as we did last year.

Daddy's Little Helper

One of Brycen's FAVORITE things to do is to help his daddy with the fire. Every night B says "Help daddy fire." They go outside and bring in the wood. That is when B says, "wood, heavy" in his best southern accent. Then he reminds himself to "stand on mat" while Brad lights the fire. Once it is lit we hear, "Daddy lite fire." He just doesn't understand why we can't have fires every night. He wants to start it as soon as he gets home from school.

Here he is trying to clean out the ashes before they get the wood!

This picture is after they are done. He is so proud of his hard work!

I'll try to get one of him carrying the "wood, heavy" in tomorrow and post it!
