Holiday Pictures

We've dressed up the blog for the holidays!!!! Don't you just love it!!! Thanks, Lindsay (Splat Designs)!

This year I decided to do Brooklynn's Christmas pictures at home in front of our tree. I think we did pretty good. Brooklynn was a good sport and cooperated (with the help of a few Skittles) really well. Here are a few of the good ones.


Brooklynn and "puppy"

For some reason, as soon as I saw this sign I thought of my little girl. :)


Merry Christmas!

"I'm done mommy, no more pictures!"

A Trip to the Zoo

Over the Thanksgiving holiday we too Brooklynn to visit the Fort Worth Zoo. What a great zoo!!! We had a great time and Brooklynn loved everything about it!

Let the Holidays Begin!

Tonight we took Brooklynn to a local shopping center for their Tee Lighting and Santa Arrival. Brooklynn was so excited to be a part of all the festivities. Her favorite part was seeing the reindeer, she loved them! Although Santa's arrival was a little past Brookie's bed time, she had a great time visiting with Mrs. Claus.

A Thanksgiving Feast

Brooklynn's class celebrated Thanksgiving with a traditional Thanksgiving feast of pizza, veggies, and cookies! :) Yum!

Making Muffins

Brooklynn and I decided to make some muffins (or cupcakes as Brookie refers to them)over the weekend. Brooklynn enjoyed the experience but wasn't a big fan of the carrot raisin muffins.

Halloween 2008

I'm a little late...but here are some pics from Brooklynn's Fall Festival days at her school. There's also a cute pic of her and a waiter who was dressed up as Elmo for Halloween. Brooklynn was absolutely star struck every time he came over to our table!

Ok ..... She's Always Been Adorable!

I was going through some old emails today and came across these pics. When we lived in Michigan Brooklynn went to the AMAZING day care center in Ford Motors corporate headquarters. Her teachers were so wonderful and we still keep in touch. They used to send me these pics of my sweet baby. It was such a treat for me as a working mom at the time! So I thought I'd share little Miss Brookie way back when.... :)
