Brynnley and Thomas loved playing around me as I got ready for the day. I had to laugh when I looked down and saw Brynnley trying to cut her own toe nails. I love watching her mimic the things we all do. She loves to explore and figure out the world around her. She is so good at it. I get to put piggies in her hair now except every time I put them in she says, "ouch." She doesn't pull them out though!

I am glad I got some clear pictures. It is hard to take a picture when you are laughing! Thomas matted down his hair and then got one strand to stick straight up in the middle and said, "this is just right mom....now I have a horn."

Thomas being a big goof and wanting me to capture it all....his faces kill me. He makes me laugh more than anyone. He is definitely growing up. He now cleans up his room without being asked(or whining)!!! He is devastated when he can't say the prayer(I must admit I love it when he prays...they are so cute and I always LOVE hearing them....he goes into such detail that I have to bite my tongue to stay reverent as he is so innocently telling Heavenly Father ALL his thoughts.) When he is sent to his room if he wasn't listening or whatever, he always says, "aaalllllright, but I am sorry and I WILL listen," as he marches up the stairs to his room. Oh man is that better than whining! So basically I think we might be phasing out of the whiny phases.....or at least I hope it's here to stay! I never dealt with that with Avery whining, so the age of 3 to 4 with Thomas kinda tested my patience a bit. So it has been pretty nice. Oh and he ADORES his sisters and plays so cute with both of them. They couldn't ask for a better brother!
