Lacrosse Game

One of Jake's co-worker had a bunch of tickets for a Pro Lacrosse game and Jake and I had never even watched a Lacrosse game so we thought it would be a fun little outing so we took the tickets and invited all of our friends. We had a lot of fun and come to find out Lacrosse is almost exactly like hockey but no ice! So we got to see some pretty awesome fights! These are our friends Ben and Lyric and their cute little baby Milo.

This is Ian and Sara and also Becca and Brian. Our friends Adam and Lisa also came but they hadn't made it to the game yet when I took this picture!
My cute little Brielle with Becca, she is so pretty in green! Becca's pregnant with a girl and due in April, we are so excited to have two little girls close together so they can be friends!
This fight got pretty intense, it was a pretty rough sport even rougher than hockey or at least this game was.
This is just a fun little picture I took this morning, I am nursing Brielle and so Addi never gets to feed her and she always begs to get her a bottle, so this morning I let Addi feed her she was so excited!! Brielle was a little trooper!

Thingamabobs....I got twenty!!!

I was in the kitchen this morning and I hear Addi belting the song from "Little Mermaid" so I had to sneak down the hall and barely get the camera around the corner to catch it on video, but it was so hilarious especially when she sings the part about "thingamabobs....I got twenty" she sings the emphasis perfectly. Addi is very shy about her singing when the camera breaks out if only she was that shy in the Grocery Store when she is belting a song at the top of her lungs and yes I have had people come from different lanes to my lane just to see what the crap is going on. Very cute but oh so embarrassing!!

Valentines Day!

We had such wonderful Valentines Day. We got two wonderful packages from my mom and from Jake's mom, we are loved so much and are so very thankful for the gifts! Jakes mom sent the girls a couple of cute little Valentines day outfits and since we had three Valentines parties that we went to this weekend, my girls were the belles of the ball!! Aren't they so adorable!!

My little Brielle is eleven weeks old today....I can't believe it has been almost three months! She is such a cutie and she already has her daddy's heart the second he walks in the door from school or work he has to hold his baby girl! She smiles and coos all the time now and she has to be where the action is, if we even dare to leave the room where she is at, she demands us back in! She looks exactly like her sister but has her own little personality which to me gives her own look. This is what our little girly looks like when i'm cooking dinner she has to be up on the table watching!

Stir Crazy!!

Addi is quite the little cook she is always pretending that she is cooking dinner or Birthday cakes or some other little treat. We have been going pretty stir crazy since the car we bought for Jake five months ago, the transmission went out so we are back down to one car. Jake has to travel clear to Disney which with traffic is an hour away, so there is no way I can take him to work and keep the car all day and then go pick him up, so alas me and the girls get on each others nerves pretty quickly!! So yesterday was definately one of those cases so I decided I would let Addi help me make Cupcakes and since Valentines day is coming up we made Red Velvet with red and pink Sprinkles!!

Addi loved being able to decorate them all by herself!!
The sprinkles ended up in a big mound all on one side!!
She actually ate the whole thing instead of just licking all the frosting off. I think she was so proud that she actually got to mix, fill the cups, bake and frost and decorate all by herself. She is getting to be a pretty big girl!!
So I got the best present anyone could ask for at three in the morning!! Anyone that has been around my house (or on the phone) for more than a few minutes can atest to the fact that I don't have the happiest little baby. She is always screaming, which we know is due to her poor little digestive system, but when the night rolls around this screaming gets especially worse so Jake and I take turns all night with not only an awake baby but a screaming and unhappy baby. Last night at three in the morning (after a major blow out) I had the happiest Brielle I have ever seen!! It did my heart good to finally see her smiling and trying to giggle, and although it was in the middle of the night I spent a whole hour just playing and cooing back at my baby, because I knew it was a very rare moment!! I thought that it was so cute I had to get video proof of it for Jake!!

My Girls!!

Oma bought the girls cute little matching dresses for Christmas and they wore them to church on Sunday and I had to get some pictures, they were sure cute. It is so much fun to have two little girls so close together, my mom used to dress me and Trisha in matching dresses, but Trisha was five years older than me so I'm sure she hated having to go to church in the same dress as her little sister. Addi loved matching her sister and she asked me if they could match with all their clothes!!

My cute little Brielle is already 2 months old and she is soo cute. She is following the same pattern as Addi did the older she gets the fairer her skin and hair gets and she looks more and more like me, where as she was a spitting image of her daddy when she was born.
