Thanksgiving 2015

We cooked our first turkey this year using a natural grocer brine which included: stars of anise, juniper berries, bay leaves, peppercorns, orange peel and Rosemary. We thought it turned out delicious and beautiful! We loved having everyone over to play games and visit. 

Sleepover

Loren came to spend the night and they had lots of fun with a face mask, tea party and crafts!

Loveys big pretty tree

A sweet big sister

Brooklyn you have such a precious spirit. I pray you stay true to who you are. I love you. 

Brooklyn wrote this letter tonight to her elf on a shelf named "Fluffy". It is so precious I can barely read it without crying. 
Dear Fluffy, please give my sister some presents too but...ask Santa first. Love, Brooklyn

Sweetie

Can't believe you are 6 months old my precious angel!

Baby Carrier Adventure

After using the boba wrap, trying an Infantino carrier and buying a used ergo carrier, Aaron and I stood in line for 3 hours to get a Tula. I love it!

Excited to Taste an Apple

This sweet Apple was a treat!

She was really excited
And then upset because we wanted to take it away before she bit a piece off
We know for sure eating fruit won't be an issue!

Walking the 2 girlies

We wanted to get outdoors since bk had hurt her arm and had been sitting around a lot. Went for a nice walk!

Breslin-not wanting to give me a smile...

Setting her piggies free

There's her smile!

Halloween at Natural Grocers

We still celebrated Halloween a little and Brooklyn dressed up along with all of us as the characters from Disneys movie Inside Out. 

Pretty in PINK

Kitty came with us to the Ortho appointment. Brooklyn chose a pink cast. 

Swelling in her elbow 
We will get an X-ray in 3 weeks

A broken wing

A splint in the ER. Ortho dr on Tuesday. 
Brooklyn Kate broke her left arm doing a cartwheel on Halloween morning. I am so proud of her brave spirit. She is trying everything by herself and really hasn't skipped a beat. We are so thankful she doesn't need surgery and there isn't growth plate involvement. 

Bath time fun

You are the cutest!
Bath time is getting hard little miss Breslin. You no longer want to sit in your bath seat. You want to explore and the only thing that slows you down is a mouth or nose full of water when you try to grab your toys. You love sucking water out of the washcloth and also playing and splashing on your tummy.
