MADAGASCAR on the brain

The first and second Madagascar movies are Brynnah's most favorite movies of all time! She askes for them from the time she wakes up in the morning to the time she goes to bed at night! They are also the ONLY movies she will actually watch the whole way through!





The ZOO

Here are some of Brynnah's FAVORITE animals at the zoo! I think her absolute favorite is the Zebra!!!!














SLEEPING BEAUTIES!




Graduation and the Davis family

The Davis' came to visit us....FINALLY during college graduation! We had so much fun even though our time was really rushed! The kids had the most fun I think. Brynnah got this princess tent for christmas from my sister. I always thought she was too little to use it...but we took a shot and put it up for the kids to play with and they had a ball! Even Trevor loved it and it's PRINCESS. They played the whold time...they really missed each other!





Our Little Drummer Girl

How can you get mad at such an ADORABLE face???

Update

So, I guess this is my new thing....to wait for months and not do any blogging and then do a couple pages of updates! Sorry they are always so long....we're a little busy. I guess you all read that Ryan got cleared to be the donor for Brynnah....he was so excited he didn't even call anyone first...he went straight to the blog...you should all feel very special! As he said the date is June 12th...which is quickly approaching...although I am very proud of myself...so far I haven't totally freaked out yet!!! Let's see where to start...Ryan of course is still working and enjoying his job...for those of you who don't know we moved and are now about a mile away from the county jail and century high school, in Pocatello. We are totally LOVING life in the country! Brynnah goes crazy over all the new animals we have coming around our house. Our neighbors had a little of retriever puppies and just had a litter of kittens...which are soooo much fun! We also put bird feeders out so we get the cuttest little song birds every day and we just started feeding squirrels (mostly because they keep getting in the bird feeders and eating all the bird food!) I have been busy busy busy....I moved my mother up to an assisted living center in Pocatello...which was totally draining but necessary. We have been going to Salt Lake a lot the last few months for testing. We are going down agian this week to do some more testing....but hopefully we get to do somethig fun....maybe the zoo! Anyhow, I've also been doing a lot of crafting...mostly jewelry which I totally forgot to take a pic....next post I promise! We had a meeting with one of the schools in town to see if Brynnah qualifies for a special needs preschool...most likely she will just because of her health issues....which means when she turns 3 she will be going to school...how scary is that? I can't believe my little girl is that old already! She has been progressing so much...everyday we wait to see what she will say or do! I want to say a special THANK YOU to those who have kept us in your thoughts and prayers! We love you all very much and appreciate all your support!

Our little PIANO gal

Some of you might remember when I posted last summer that I got this piano at a yard sale ....even though I don't actually play...well my master plan has already begun to take effect...I got it so that I could learn to play but also so that I could put Brynnah in lessons when she is old enough! the little stinker has already gone to town and LOVES to play any chance she gets...that's my girl!


Brynnah's new FAVORITE book

I found this book at the DI and Brynnah is totally in love with it...we read it at least once every night for the last month!
My Easter present was the BEST! The Mama Mia soundtrack.....YEAH! I listen to it all the time! Thanks babe! I found Ryan this really awesome CD...."Celtic Thunder". We had never heard of them before...we saw a PBS special one night at his parents house and LOVED them!

Brynnah was totally excited about every aspect of Easter goodies!



Happy Easter!

These first 2 pics were taken at Grandma and Grandpa Caywood's House...we went down for a couple days while Ryan was working.... I LOVED this totally cheese-ball grin!
Isn't this pic adorable?!?


Brynnah had so much fun coloring Easter eggs...It's so much fun for her to be able to participate and get excited over holidays!

I think her favorite part of coloring the eggs were.......STICKERS!








This is my "new to me" fabulous rug! I have been looking for a rug for our front room since we moved to the new place. I went to Kandas....which is a second hand store in Pocatello...which is FABULOUS!!! And I found this rug...it was love at first sight!
Brynnah's New Monkey PJ's Ryan and I were looking for new pj's for Brynnah and came accross these!!! Brynnah LOVED them and insisted on carrying them throughout the whole store!
