2016 Week 5 - SNOW!!!!

We were told the snow was going to come and it surely did. All four of us were home because Buddy took the day off to assist with children while I was taking a training course for work and I decided to stay home because... well.. SNOW!!! In the morning, Buddy and Avery made some new "healthy" cookies (damn diets) and we went outside to play in the afternoon. Wish I got some pictures of the baking but I did get some of us going outside! I even bundled the tiny boy up and brought him along and yes, the outfit he is wearing is one that Avery wore (Thanks Aunty Kendra!!!) Then, naturally, after playing outside, we finished the day off with some hot cocoa and a movie :) I'd say the two snow bunnies earned it!

His new thing is sticking that tiny tongue out all the time! Cute little nugget.

Big Ol' snowboy smile!!!! 

I didn't realize until I was looking at these pictures that her hair is nicely swooped across her forehead. She's so fancy!

2016 Week 4 - Shearin' Some Sheeps

This past weekend it was the yearly shearing even out at the Ranch. We decided to go out to help, which really means, Avery "helps", I watch, Buddy stays inside and Bryan naps. So, really, we are a TON of help. If anything, we were good for some entertainment. Avery "hupped" carry some fleece, herd some sheeps and eat some lunch. While I am so very happy that she is comfortable with the animals and loves to help my mom and dad, I'm really thinking there should come a time where she is a little scared of the animals. The kid will go right up to a sheep and wait there for the sheep to give her a "tiss." I guess the fearlessness is good... until she asks a rattlesnake for a tiss!! She won't... at least I hope she won't!!!

She has been told that when the sheep are running around and she needs to be careful, she is supposed to stand up tight to the wall. Clearly, watching Scott requires some careful attention.

Hug breaks! 

Back in her spot

2016 Week 3 - Samesees

I have found that I really like doing similar things with Bryan that I did with AJ. I like putting him in clothes she wore and I REALLY like trying to recreate pictures that I took of her. One of my favorite ones of her was a close up of her eyes and she was upside down (don't worry, I'm posting it again.) It's so amazing to me how different these two hooligans can look while looking so similar at the same time. The biggest different in my eyes (hehe) is their eyes.... one brownie and one blue. So.. here they are followed by some of Bryan's big 3 month pictures!!! 

Avery's adorable little face!! 

And Bryan's adorable face

Such big bright eyes!!! 

Haha, he pretty much made the exact same face!! 

He had a lot of fun while taking these pictures.
Now, here are his Three Month Old pics!!! He's such a happy little dude!! (which I now laugh after writing that because I can see that picture above haha)

Cutie with a hairdo 

It looks like his pants are wet here.... they aren't.. I don't think..

His arms are crazy... trying to get both hands in the picture seems to be quite the challenge 

Goodness.... that smile!!!

Such a tiny cheeseball

BAM!! Both hands!!!

Mid-tiny boy giggle!

Monthly sibling pic. Bryan looks like we are wasting his time with this! 

"What can I do for thee, mother?"

Posin'

It was really hard trying to get him to smile for these ones!!! 

But I did get this tiny smirk and absolutely love it!!
