Brooklyn Nine Months!

Brooklyn is now nine months!! We have had so much fun with her she is the happiest and easy going baby we have had thus far!! She gets so excited to see her daddy and she cant help but smile and laugh when he walks in the house for lunch. She hasn't shown much interested in crawling and we wonder if she will skip that step completely because she really never even tries to move?? She still just has her two bottom teeth and you get many chances to see them with her big grin! She sleeps through the night which is wonderful and wakes up about 6:45 but if i feed her then and put her back in bed she will go back to sleep until about 8 which is heavenly even though the boys are up and running around! We headed to the dr and here are her nine month stats!
Weight  19lb 2oz    54%
Heights  28.5 in      79%
HC         47cm

Santa Run!

On the Saturday after Thanksgiving we headed to Ogden for Brandon's Santa Run! It was a race where everyone was given a Santa suit (hat, coat, pants, belt, and beard) and they ran a 5k! It was a little ridiculous to see everyone in there outfits. There were 1500 or so runners and they ranged from children to old men! Brandon was really excited and the weather was actually quite nice! His time was 24:48.1 (7:58min/ml) and he took 71st place overall and was 9th in his age group!! Yay Brandon, i mean Santa??

Brooklyn at eight months!

 I just love taking pictures of Brooklyn, i get all of her many looks and i just cant help put post all of them so that i can remember when she has grown!

She has been eating all types of new foods and loves sitting, playing with toys. She has her two bottom teeth in and boy are they sharp.  She is sleeping through the night and loves her naps (much like her mommy)! She is not trying at all to crawl but she loves her walker! She loves the boys but the boys are quite ruff with her which is scary for me and for her! 

 I just love this little girl! She is so happy and just loves life and i am grateful to be able to stay home and be with her all day!

Halloween 2012

This year for Halloween, we decided to do a Superhero theme. Coleton was spider-man (we bought one at Walmart but then found a different one at DI a few days later)

Brooklyn was Baby Jack-Jack

(we wanted her to be Violet but she didn't have enough hair :)

Hayden was Super-man with a cape.

I was Elastic-girl

And Brandon was Batman!

One of the ward members was passing out fresh cotton candy!

At the trunk-or-treat passing out candy!

Coleton going through his candy and eating it while we were not looking (or so he thinks)

We had a fun night as a family! We went back to the house and passed out candy and then ate a few pieces of candy. After we ate a few we packed the candy up to give to the dentist for the candy-buy-back and we got a few dollars that the kids were able to go and pick out a toy from the store! Coleton got a little transformer toy and Hayden got a big bouncy ball that glows when it bounces! They were pretty excited and we are glad that they wont be eating anymore candy :) Hope everyone had a safe and fun Halloween!
