Planes, trains and automobiles

 Ok not really, it's more like bikes, scooters and boxes, but that just doesn't sound as good:)

Brennar officially is on 2 wheels!! We tried at the beginning of summer and it just didn't click with him, he is so long and skinny he probably just didn't have the muscle control. But he does now!  We have a couple friends who used a smaller 2 wheeled bike that their kiddos learned on and for some reason it really worked.  He rode on that for about an hour total and then was one to his big lightning McQueen bike.

Checking for cars, safety first

 He is so proud of himself, he did awesome
 Brilee went back and forth on the sidewalk with her scooter as he was learning

 Can't wait for family bike rides next summer when Bryden is big enough for the bike trailer
 We got a wonderful package delivered to us:)

Big changes for Bryden Luke, too!

Again, where has the time gone???  

6 months came and went and now he is already 7 months.  It just doesn't seem right, or fair!!

He has really mastered sitting, and can get himself to and from sitting and laying very well.

She can't get enough of him, but really can you blame her?? :)


Seriously, this face!!! He most definitely fits his "rainbow" baby name
We love him so so much!!

Brilee is in preschool!

 This is even more crazy then Brennar starting Jr. K... Brilee now goes to school too!!
Isn't she the cutest little thing??? She was so excited too!  All summer we have been talking about her going to school with Brennar and she is obviously familiar with the school, but I also have told her she was going to have a specific teacher.  Well, unfortunately she didn't come back to the school this year.  We are super bummed, we LOVED her:(
 Typical Brennar fashion
 In the car getting ready to walk in
 They really do love each other
 Half of my heart walking away from me

 Right before the water works started, for me not her
She actually did really well.  Her new teacher, Mrs. Aigner is going to be great with her.  She went and sat on her lap as I was leaving:)  The only thing she said to me was "mommy, if I get scared can I go to Brennar's class?"  So glad she knows her brother is there with her!

Brennar's first day of Jr. Kindergarten

How did this even happen??? I blinked and he became a little man, heading off to junior kindergarten:(  The only thing that made this better was to see how excited he was to go! 

Brilee was sad to see him go to, but she had fun hanging out alone with mommy for a few hours.
I can't even describe how much I love these 3, they make my heart explode!
All ready to go with his new back-up

Oh the fun!!!

 Seriously, SO. MUCH. FUN!! I don't even know  what else to say about our trip except that we can't wait to go back!!


Brilee was in Heaven with all the characters, I couldn't believe it

 Breakfast at Surf's Up with Mickey and crew
 They loved getting their little autograph books signed, but super bad news, mommy can't find them:(
 Bryden was a little unsure of the giant face looking into his
 But Brennar liked Minnie:)
 One of my most favorite pictures of Miss Brilee



 Daddy and his little girl

 The lego store was so cool.  We had some friends go to LEGOLAND this summer and they had a great time, I think a trip there needs to be in our future too!
 Right outside our hotel was a couple giant stars, Brilee needed to touch them each time we walked by
 So sad I messed up this picture, but at least I got Brilee with Princess Aurora
 We had dinner with the characters too!

 This little man starting learning to crawl while we were there!!

 Happiest baby in the happiest place on earth!!


We LOVE Disneyland!!!
