Brecken is officially 2 1/2 today- I can't believe it! She is soo wonderful & we LOVE her. Every time we look at her we can't believe how HUGE she is- it's amazing. Now we understand why people always say it goes really fast soo soak it up! It don't know if I have soaked it up enough. Sometimes I wish I could turn her back to a baby, even just for a day, & just hold her. She is so big now that she doesn't want to rock. For bedtime, we read one book and try to rock for a couple minutes but Brecken always says, "I uncomfortable- put me in my bed." NO JOKE- that comes out of her mouth. More proof that she is no longer a baby.... no more binky. The day Deon brought baby Londyn home from the hospital Brecken wrapped up her binkies and gave them to Londyn. No tears- not even one & she loved her binky. She has done great- it has been 2 weeks. I guess she felt it was a good cause, although she sometimes say, "She need give them back"! Hopefully she won't resent her new cousin!
This is her last suck on her binkies- had to get a picture!


This is what happens with no nap after 11 o'clock church. 1st time passing out at home anywhere but her bed.

So Brecken has been loving Dr. Suess, Green Eggs and Ham. Last Wednesday I asked her what she wanted for breakfast, and she replied, "Green eggs and ham". When I said okay she was soo excited. I was noxious cooking them- it's just wrong!


"Thank you soo much" she kept saying. LOVED them!


It is always dress-up time at the Foulgers--- all Brecken's ideas.

White Christmas

So this is what we have been up to. Snow, snow, and snow. Funny story: we went and saw Santa Claus and I told Brecken to tell him what she wanted. She took and deep breath, and spit out, "I want a Sleeping Beauty dress, a wand, and a crown!" Not even shy! She has worn it almost everyday since christmas. Yes, we had a great Christmas!

So I am finally updating- I know it has been a long time! I have to show off her adorable costume, but first these are pictures of pumpkin decorating and the pumpkin patch




And here are the many variations of "mermaid princess" on the way to playgroup, the ward party, and with her friend Maylie. I know- what's with the fairy wings... she insisted. There were many variations thought up by Brecken!







& this is what she looked like for actual trick-or-treating! All the effort and she doesn't even wear it for the actual holiday!!!

Halloween

Brecken decided she wanted to be a princess for Halloween. I tried to talk her into being a fairy, but to no avail. My girl knows what she wants. When we went to the fabric store to pick out her pattern and fabric, and after looking at a bunch of patterns she saw the mermaid costume. "Mom: I be mermaid princess!"... and that was it- she had made her decision & there was no changing it! Too cute!


P.S. This was before Pocahantas was discovered & before the Pocahantas 'dress' was created. Brecken still has not changed her mind- she wants to be mermaid princess. Too bad because I love the thought of a quick 5-minute costume!

Pocahantas Princess

This morning Brecken watched Pocahantas for the first time and LOVED it! Near the end of the movie I relized I had fabric to make a quick 5-minute Pocahantas dress. Brecken thinks it is great, but I realized she needed a Pocahantas necklace. This is what we came up with... & she feels like an princess! If I was smart I would make this her Halloween costume but she has already decided on Mermaid princess and picked out her fabric...darn-it!



Finally... Home

So we have been in our house for 7 months now. Don't get me wrong- we love it, but... everytime we drive up to it it feels a little like a construction zone- until now!!! We finally got our landscaping in and it feels GREAT!!! It's home!

We have a few hiccups during the process with a joke of a landscaper because of whom we had to pay for our retaining wall (between our house & the neighbor's) TWICE- talk about a rip-off! Well... I guess live and learn :) The landscapers we hired next where awesome and got it done in a day and a half (they had lots of man-power!). We are relieved because the idea of doing the yard ourselves was daunting and impossible. We can now check front yard off our never-ending list!!!

Life Happens TOO fast
