My Birthday April 15th!

Yesterday was my birthday and I turned 24. I had school all day and I have been pretty sick since before Easter, so we didn't have any big plans. While we were up north for the break, Brian bought me a really nice (expensive) purse at Carmel beach!! Yesterday I didn't get home until around 9:30pm, but Brian bought food, and a little chocolate cake and some ice cream...all of which looked delicious but I can't taste anything. He also rented "Yes Man," which I turned off about 20 minutes into it because he fell asleep. He's also going to get me a tanning pass and gym pass for our trip this summer to Cancun with Sean and Bree! But best of all he bought me a dozen red roses and plucked them and did all the little tricks to make them look beautiful! I just hope they last a while because we don't get any sun at the apartment. I also got money from my parents,Brian's parents, and grandma which I need a lot right now cause I have to buy new clothes for our trip!

Relay For Life

Brian and I are participating in this years Relay For Life(May 2&3) for a friend in our ward who is a cancer survivor.We have to get the rest of our money by Saturday (april 18). For any of you who knows a cancer survivor, someone battling cancer, or someone who has passed away from cancer, this would be a great opportunity to help with cancer research and save lives. Any amount would be helpful. So if you are interested and would like to donate please let one of us know. Thanks.

Brooklyn update

Brooklyn has changed so much these past weeks. On St. Patrick's Day she said her first word. I call her "Mama" and always say mama so of course that would be her first word. Well it wasn't, it was "Dadad." Then Brian told me that when he plays with her he always says " Dada.....Daddyyyyyy" over and over. Then about two weeks later she said "Mum." Now she says those words all the time. She has her first tooth, she loves wrapped granola bars because they are shiney, make noise, and she can chew on them. She scoots backwards like crazy and rolls all over. She also loves water bottles with a little bit of really cold water in it for her gums. She likes all foods so far even peas and green beans....well she makes faces when she eats them but at least she eats them. She always sleeps on her stomach, even when I turn her back over she rolls right back, and often wakes up with her head at the foot of her crib. Her skin has a little bit more color, and her hair is longer and really blond. She likes to wave and make silly sounds. She still doesn't like the pacifier, and sometimes prefers the hard part or the fabric that connects it to her shirt. She loves to be naked and has to be held 24/7.She loves to rip and chew my notes while I'm trying to study. My favorite new thing she does is going to bed at 12 or 1... am that is (her teething schedule).
