"My Brynnie Evans and my Two!"

If you ask Brynn what her name is she responds with, "My Brynnie Evans and my two." If you call her any other name like, "Cutie, princess, Stu, etc, she screams, "My not (insert name just called)! My BRYNNIE EVANS AND MY TWO!

The terrible Twos. We love it and we hate it. But Brynnli is definitely a two year old. 

Brynn is to the stage where she still kinda needs a nap, but some days she can get away without one, which leaves us finding this cutie asleep in random places like...

On the couch. 

Or in the middle of Sacrament meeting. 

Or in the car

We were doing some yard work and Brynnli put on Caden's handy man hat and went to work fixing the snow. 

 Sometimes when Brynnli wakes up with her hair still in her piggies I think she looks like Boo from Monsters, Inc. What do you think?

 One thing is for sure, Brynn loves donuts. Every time we go to the store she screams, "My want a donut!" and you guessed it, she usually gets one as we walk up and down the isles.

 She obviously has great fashion sense.

 All the great pianists play naked, right?

 Some other fun things about Brynnli at two:

-She jabbers all the time, talks in full sentences, and says "but" in almost every sentence.
-Is obsessed with "poo". She thinks it is the funniest word ever.
-We kinda, sorta started potty training again, and she went on the potty 4 times this month. We just need to be consistent and she will have it.
-Brynn literally thinks she is a cat and will crawl all around the house saying, "meow". When she's a cat she insists on being held like a cat, likes to be petted, and will even lick you.
-She sings "The Land" song and screams "BAT" at the top of her lungs.
-When she sees a puppy she screams, "Dat puppy gonna taste me!" She means lick, but taste is so much cuter.
-One day she saw a baby crying at the store and said, "Dat baby sad. Hims needs hims bibi and blankie, but hims bibi at home."
-When we are getting ready to drop her off at nursery at church she says, "what kids am I gonna hit?" and when she gets home from church she sits on the couch and proudly tells us, "My didn't hit my kids today!"

Off Track

While Makayla was off track this month we got to do a lot of fun things. 

We went to the zoo with our friends Kaylen, Bentley, and Kelsey. They are all the same ages as our kids, so they have a blast together. 

 We went on the train.

 And rode the carousel at least three times.

 Our friends had to leave a little early, but we stayed and had such a fun time.

 It's hard to tell in this picture, but Brynnli was so fascinated by the orangutan. She would get right up to the glass and just stare at him...

 But then he would glare at her and she would run away from him.

 I really don't think I have ever laughed so hard!

I have to say Brynnli was so cute at the zoo this time. She was so little last time we had the Zoo season pass, I don't think she really understood it. But this time she totally got it. She could name all of the animals and loved to stare at them. Her favorite was the elephants.

 We also went to see Beauty and the Beast with Grandma and Grandpa, Tracy, and Camden.

 We LOVED it! Ok, maybe I loved it more than the kids did, but we had so much fun.

We also went to get ice cream one night. Love this family of mine!

 Makayla got invited to Kyra's birthday party at the swimming pool. I just had to document how wrinkly her toes were after. She looks like an old woman!

Love off track time, but Makayla was definitely ready to get back to school!

Our Soccer Dude!

I really can't even express how proud we are of Caden, especially this year in soccer. He has improved and excelled so much this year. He couldn't wait to get to his soccer games every week and get on the field to play. Caden did so well and really excelled on defense. He also improved in offence and scored at least one goal every game. 

 At his very last game he got a medal and he was so proud of it.

 Caden's coach this year, Alex, was really great with all the kids and made the game really fun for all of them.

 We are so proud of our little soccer player and can't wait for spring soccer to begin!

Lucky, Lucky, Lucky Me!

Wow, you would think it was Christmas around here with all the fun things the kids got from Lucky the Leprechaun this year. He stopped by again to play tricks on the kids and leave them some surprises. 

His note said: 

Today's St Patrick's Day, you see. I came back to play tricks on you three. 

I messed up your rooms, I turned your milk green. One of your bathrooms is no longer clean. 

I left you treats to show you I care. I even got you glasses and bows for your hair. 

I got you some tattoos so you'll look cool. Don't forget to wear your shirts to school!

I hope you don't get pinched on this fine March Day. "Top o' the mornin' to ya!" Like I always say. 

 He peed in our bathroom and forgot to flush. (I think he thought that was normal around here since that's what the kids always do).

 He turned our milk green.

 But Caden was not happy to see that he had messed up his room by taking all of the books off the shelf and throwing them on the floor.

 Lucky must be pretty strong because he moved Brynnli's bed while she was asleep in it!

 Don't they just look so cute in their matching outfits!?

 Caden had preschool that day with a magician show, so we got to all go see it with him!

 Later that night we went to the U of U women's basketball game. There was hardly anyone there so we got to get face painting and balloons.

 Check out this Irish-ish guy. Sorry ladies, he's taken.

 Caden didn't let us forget to take a picture of him with his face mask when we got home.

What a fun St. Patrick's Day! See ya next year Lucky!!
