Week In Review

It's been Kee-Razy here in Vandyville this week.  Still, we find plenty of time to do the things that matter most.
Like cuddles with Dad.

 One of us is forever silly.  The other is forever serious!

Cole has been SO good lately that he got a special trip to the Lego store! 
No, he didn't get this massive set, but he did get a treat :)

And B found a special treat amongst all the stuff to be packed. 
He loves this little Buddha and asks
"Are you okay Buddha?"

Hope your week has been as crazy good as ours!

21st Birthday

Bet you thought you were about to see some crazy party pics eh?!  Well I'm 21 months and unfortunately, Mom would not let me celebrate in style.  Here are a few fun facts about me though:

• I am really good with my hands.  I use a spoon and fork, I hold a marker perfectly and I can work legos already!
• I'm talking up a STORM.  One of my favorite things to do is yell "TRUCK!  MOM!  TRUCK!"  Only, I substitute "F" for "TR."  That turns people's heads everywhere we go.  I  think they must be amazed at how loud I am so I just turn up the volume even louder.
• I love my brother more than anything or anyone.  There's nothing I'd rather do than play with him.  Unfortunately, he's a cuddler and I am NOT.  I beat him up anytime he even thinks about snuggling.
• I love firetrucks.  They're my favorite thing in the whole world.  I cannot wait to go to the firestation in a few weeks!
• I am still a really good eater.  most of the time I don't want my food, but prefer to snatch Cole's away and eat that.  Even if we get the same things, his is always tastier.
• I love the bath.
• I love Boots and Graham and Sammy. 
• I LOVE Buddy, my blanket.
• I'm not shy.  I will talk to anyone at anytime.  Just like aVandy.
• I get to say prayers with Cole everynight now.  Mostly I just sit there and say "Where's Jesus?" over and over again, but I'm always the loudest one singing the Peace song. 
• I'm sort of interested in the potty.  I tell Mom and Dad when I poop and I know I'm supposed to go on the potty.  I'm just not convinced it's worth the effort yet.
• I'm up for making movies now!  Hopefully more to come :)

Vandyville

This one is just for you Aunty Kat! 

We love you.  Come see the rest SOON!

Closing Time

Vandyville is moving!  Today Mom and Dad closed on our new home.
Here's a sneak peek from a few months ago when B and I went over to make sure it was
sturdy enough to handle us.

We loved it!

Just a tease for now.  More pics to follow - or you can come on out to the country and see the real thing!
 

Adventures With Hootie

If you're in Mrs. Ruth's class, you know being Student of the Week comes with a BIG responsibility. 
You get to take Hootie (the class pet) home for the weekend!
We were SO excited to have him/her around.  I explained all about how Hootie is nocturnal and how we all had to be sure he had lots of cuddles and adventures.

Mom explained that we are not to fight over Hootie and that there are some adventures Hootie cannot go on with us - like the bath!

Hootie enjoyed our Star Wars bedtime story.  B tried to feed him popcorn, but he only eats mice.

In the morning, Hootie was a little disappointed (as was I) that he could not go to sleep. 
We had a race to run!

Mom did a bad job planning and we barely made it in time for Daddy's race. 
No matter, he jumped right in for a 3rd place finish and a Vandy PR!  He may or may not have beat Mom's 5K time with little to no effort, we're not allowed to talk about that.

We're pretty sure our cheering helped!

After Dad's race, we checked out the Bounce House and balloon makers.  All the rowdies got swords and of course, B was right in there fighting with the rest of us big kids.

Then I sat down for a face painting.

When he wasn't jumping or cheering, B was running too!

He probably logged a mile himself!

Go B Go!

As a warm up for my big race, I did some stretch poses for my favorite photog.

The Momparazzi is always happy when we stop for a money shot or two.

I was a skeleton pirate...  For awhile I decided that I could not speak as I was "not really alive."
That didn't last too long though.

Dad got up on the podium (only because Mom MADE him do it).

 Don't tell the other guy, but we're pretty sure our Dad was the bigger winner.  How could he not be?!  He has US!

Finally, it was my turn!  Hootie was pretty tired, but he still wanted to cheer me on!

And this super special kid, Tatum was there rooting for me too!

I had an awesome race! 

What a great time running for a fantastic cause.
Please take a minute to read about our new friend Tatum and the fantastic things she does for children who are sick.
She is an amazing girl and we're proud to have been a part of her big day.
Thanks Tatum!  Keep up the great work!

Ultimate Cuteness

Sydney and KK left some awesome gifts for me in the mailbox this week.
There's nothing more annoying than having someone snap endless pictures when you're trying to play a game!

Okay, I did find SOME time to strike a pose :)

Thanks Girls!

Like Father, Like Brother

Well, it was inevitable.  Look what Mom caught me doing this morning!

P90 has nothing on PBrycey!
