Well hi everyone. It is Angie. It has been 5 months since last writing on our blog. So many things have happened in this amount of time.
Brooklyn is now 9 months old, Dakota is 15 1/2 and just waiting for the chance to get his license, and Austin is 12 and cant wait for school to start.
It has been a very busy summer. Cant believe it is ending. We have been to Oregon and California.
We have gone boating and camping as well. She is quite the little sailor. She loves camping because she gets to be outside all day, that is when she is the happiest.
We put her in the American Starlet pageant in May ust to try it out and she won over all. She won Regional Queen. She has a tiara, sash and a trophy that is almost as tall as her. Dakota took her on stage for the whole thing and presented her to the judges. He was so very proud. We were very proud of him as well. It was quite an experience.
Now we are just getting ready for school to start. Dakota has been going to football practices all week and Aug 20th I begin coaching swimming but this year I am at a new school, GK High School. This is where Dakota goes so it helps. Jacob at this moment is on his way to Texas in a moving truck. He is helping a family from church get their belongings to Texas. How he finds time is beyond me. He will be back the 22nd, day after my 35th birthday. Austin is just so in love with his baby sister. He has wanted her ever since he was 6, he is so good with her. There are times he would hear her in the night and would get up with her.
Brooklyn is now sleeping through the night. It has now been 3 weeks. She goes down for bed at 9:30 and wakes at 8:30, you cant ask for more than that. It is so great for us so we can focus on the boys and get theem out the door in the morning and not have to worry about the little princess. She then willl take a 1 hour nap at 11am and then take a 1 1/2 to 2 hour map 2pm. She is so much happier when she gets her sleep. She is now 17lbs and 2 oz. She is doing so very well. The doctor is so very happy.
Well here are a few photos from over the summer for you all to enjoy.
