Brooklynn's 1st Birthday!!!!

My sweet little princess turned 1 last week!! I can't believe how fast Brooklynn is growing up. She weighs 22.4 lbs and is in the 60th percentile in weight for her age and the 95th percentile in height. She has been walking for a couple months now and is starting to run. She LOVES Tate and wants to do everything he does. She has the cutest personality and is DEFINITELY a "mama's girl!" Well... she was quite the spoiled little girl and had lots of birthday parties last week. Here are a bunch of pictures of Brooklynn.... Happy 1st Birthday Brooklynn!!!

Mowing the Lawn w/ Dad

Tate is such a "Mini-Mo!" One of his favorite things is being able to go outside and help G-mo mow the lawn. Oh... and he always has to wear his "lawn mower shirt" (his jersey). He is the funniest little boy ever!!!

Sweetest Little Girl...

OK... I just had to post this picture that I took of Brooklynn while we were in Newport. She is just the sweetest little thing and I can't believe she is almost 11 months old. She started walking this week and just wants to do everything Tate is doing. I LOVE her to death!

Newport- 4th of July

A couple weeks ago, we went to Newport and stayed with G-mo's parents at their beach house. It was so nice to be able get get away and hang out on the beach everday! G-mo was able to come for the first 5 days and I ended up staying for almost 2 weeks. Tate and Brooklynn absolutely LOVED the beach!! I couldn't keep either of them out of the water! Brooklynn would bear-crawl as fast as she could into the water until I would grab and save her from being taken out by a wave... then we would start all over again! Tate just loved being able to play outside and on the beach all day long. He also loved talking to just about everyone walking by on the board walk... not to mention saying "Hi Grandpa!" to anyone that looked old. On 4th of July, we went out on G-mo's Grandparents' duffy (little boat) to watch fireworks. Tate thought the fireworks were SO cool and, suprisingly, Brooklynn loved them! Well here are some pictures that I had taken over the 2 weeks.

Random Pictures

Here are a bunch of pictures that I have taken over the past few weeks. I can't believe how big Tate and Brooklynn are getting. Brooklynn is 9 months old and is crawling all over the place now. She is starting to stand on her own too so she'll be walking before we know it. She's the cutest thing ever and if you can't tell... she LOVES the camera! Tate is almost 2 1/2 and is just as wild as ever... running everywhere he goes. He loves being a big brother and is very sweet to Brooklynn.

Shaving Our Heads

Well it was finally time to shave the mop off of Tate's head. After G-mo shaved Tate's head... Tate got to shave G-mo's head. He thought that was so cool! Doesn't he look so cute too?!
