I love Brooklyn!


So I thought I would share a little of my love for my adorable Brooklyn.  That is not to say that I don't love all my kids but today you get her.  She is at an age that I absolutely LOVE!!  She is starting to say quite a few words and the other day I was testing her.  She was so good at repeating what I said that I decided I would try to catch it on video.  She did pretty good but my favorite word she says is "tickle, tickle, tickle"  except she says it more like "gulla gulla gulla" and her tongue goes in and out really fast.  It is hilarious.  Of course she didn't do it in the video but I thought I would share anyway.  Enjoy!

Happy Halloween!!

This year Halloween was a 2 day holiday.  On Thursday, Noah had his little preschool party.  The kids get to wear their costumes and they sing songs for all the parents.  They did a really great job.  Noah is the all black Batman.


Brooklyn and Noah at the party.  As you can see Brooklyn is an adorable little fairy.  

That night our ward had a ho down.  It was a lot of fun and they had a camera set up to do old-time photos.  Lucy and Brooklyn couldn't resist.  I really like the look of a "fairy cowgirl"

Friday afternoon, the kids got all dressed up to go Trick-or-treating.  Noah changed from Batman to Super-Spider-Batman.  He has a superman cape on that you can't see.  Lucy is a fairy-princess.  Niko is a wizard that goes to Hogwarts.  For some reason he didn't want to wear the glasses to be Harry Potter so he is just a student at Hogwarts.

Some of our friends came over to our neighborhood so we could all go trick-or-treating together.  These 3 girls were really cute.  Brooklyn, Kendall, and Dallis had a lot of fun when they realized that people were giving them candy.
After we made it down the street we decided that the little girls probably had enough candy so Brooklyn and I came back to the house to pass out candy to all the other kids.  I let Brooklyn have one of her Tootsie-pops.  I think she is a fan. (Notice the drool. . .)

Finally we went over to a friends house for doughnuts, hot chocolate, and homemade cinnamon rolls.  (My favorite part of Halloween.)  YUM!!!
