4 Months and a Pre-Schooler!

Well, life has been interesting having a pre-schooler and a baby. Kami is still working on potty training (HATE IT!) and her personality is getting larger every day. Brooklyn is laughing and it's fun to tickle her and try to figure out of she likes it or not. Her hair lays down sometimes if we work with it after her baths, but it still likes to stick straight up.

Kami broke out a few funny quotes these past 2 weeks. One day, she was laying in bed with me and said, while trying to make a heart with her hands, "You make my little heart so happy!" It was the sweetest thing ever! Then, Garrett brought me a birthday bucket with lots of little presents in it and Kami stepped right in it and said "Oops! Sorry for stepping on your birthday!" She also loves to talk to people on the phone, but it's kind of hard to understand a 3-year old who has a high-pitched voice, sometimes mumbles, and makes up words. We often have to translate for her, so it's a good thing our phones have speakerphones! If you get a Kami call and can't understand her, don't worry...we can't either!

Hope you enjoy the pictures! I even posted a video since you've all been so good!

A message from Kami: oooo7yfdfgtrfb rvb fd bbvbvgf fgbgggbgggfc z

Kami's great-aunt Kathy sent her a birthday card with some money in it ("Sook mama! A ticket!" she said. "What kind of ticket is it Kami?" we asked. "A ticket to buy stuff!"). We were on our way to Wal-Mart and we went spent about 20 minutes in the toy department trying to decide what to use it for and this is what she decided on:

She was pretty proud of her new "cooter!" Yeah, we'll be working on adding the "s" to the front of that word...

If you didn't know better, you'd think this poor boy had to ride a scooter with a girl's helmet on...

She's a pretty good scooter-rider! Notice our pathetic dog in the background...

Kami trying to multi-task and eat breakfast and hold "Brook-in's" hand.

We've had some mice issues and Garrett caught one in an apple juice container. Kami saw it and thought it could be her new pet. I told her to stay away from it since it might hurt her and she got really close to the container and said "Sook mama! It didn't hurt me! It my friend!" while giving me the thumbs-up. Don't worry, we didn't let her keep it. Garrett took care of business while Kami wasn't watching.

Kami doesn't care for pants much and is starting to strike some hilarious poses. We put her down for her nap regularly dressed and we found her in her bed with pink tights and silver shoes on.

Big bite of a wooden sandwich!

Again with the silly poses.

And again.

Did I mention that she likes to get her picture taken?

Brooklyn is quite the chubby bunny.

I might have to start using barrettes earlier on Brooklyn than I did with Kami.

Kami's "sad face" and tinsel skirt.

Kami loved her Mr. Potato Head toy and made a Kami potato head.

My parents have had this little musical dog for a few years and every Christmas, Kami always remembers exactly what ear to press to make it play music. She amused herself and Brooklyn for quite some time this holiday season.

Sisters!

Kami's silly face.

Brooklyn chillin' in her Bumbo.

Enjoy the video!

I hate it when someone steps on my birthday!

Great pictures! Looks like lots of good times are being had around your place (at least by Kami)!
