The Wave

Brynn's new favorite things are:

1. Waving--loves the reaction, but usually stops as soon as Mom pulls out the camera (I did get some short clips! See video below)

2. Saying "eese"--for "Cheese" Can we say mom takes lots of pictures? (Lots of eye rolling from daddy!)

3. Her little orange car--LOVES IT. Would spend all day climbing in and out, pushing it, getting pushed by all of us--mom even has to carry her up the stairs IN IT sometimes.

4. Being OUTSIDE!!!--Spring is coming!! Yeah!!! Although yesterday morning we went sledding on 4 new inches of snow but Brynn crawled all over the grass all day today! Weird.

Amazing

Ok, so I know I should be writing something amazing about my kids--new miracles or discoveries they are making in their little lives, or some other really great thing--but seriously, this is amazing. We have a helium balloon that has been in the air for 12 days now--and it's still going strong. Ethan and Sophia both got balloons after their little visit to the grocery store Easter bunny the day before Easter--THAT'S 12 DAYS AGO PEOPLE! Sophia's was on the ground the next day. Ethan's--still floating. Here's the proof--I guess I should have the date stamp on it, but seriously, I know I am a little cuckoo--but why would I make this up? Could I have really just made it up? No. People. This is real. I will let you know when it goes down--if it ever does (eerie music playing in your head)......
****update---19 days now but sadly, it is lingering just halfway in the air. I do now believe that the movie "Up" could really be a true story--anyone want to give it a try?!
