Pool Day: Summer's here!

Sunday we went to Miss Cindy's pool for the first time since it got warm again. But first we went to church, of course. I love going to Sunday School and seeing my friends Miss Carrie and Miss McKenna.

For church this week, me and KiKi wore matching outfits. They were yellow and white. But when Daddy saw mine, he said it was not ok and told Mommy I needed different pants, not just bloomers. He said my dress was too short to wear with just bloomers and it was "in-uh-pro-pree-ut" for church. So I just put on some jeans and wore my dress like a shirt.

(Mommy note: Can I just say this whole situation of M using the veto power on Braska's outfit kind of cracked me up?! It was a bit like a milestone to me. The first instance of "You're not leaving the house like that, young lady!" Too funny. I'm sure it's far from the last time we'll get the veto.)

At church, we saw Auntie Skye and Uncle Jody. I can see lots of stuff when Uncle Jody holds me because he's way up high!

After church and lunch, we went to Miss Cindy's house. Almost everyone was there to swim. Miss Cheryl and Uncle Ethon, Grandma C and Papaw, Uncle Levi and Auntie Janice and little Xander too. He's not very little anymore though! He weighs almost as much as me!

I got to wear a new swimsuit. Auntie Rachel got it for me when I was a tiny baby, but it just now fits! I showed everyone how cute I was and I told them too. "Cute!" I said, lots of times.

Daddy got in the pool with me so I could splash and swim. Uncle Ethon tried to help, too.

Here's a short movie of me swimming and splashing and saying it too!



I like to float around and splash. Sometimes I put my face in the water,too, but just for a quick second.

I was all tired after playing in the pool. And Miss Cheryl's lap is always the best place for naps, I say.

We are going back this Sunday again... so there will be more pictures and stories, I'm sure!

  2. Hello Braska!
    You sure are a cute little girl. Your Mommy and Daddy are very lucky to have such a sweet little girl.

    Since you like swimming so much please tell your Mommy to check out the Swinline Swim Tee Trainer. I was at a swimming party and there was a little guy there that had one on and he loved it and I was quite impressed how well it worked. He could float around very safely.
    Here is a link to what one looks like on Amazon. (There are others but is the one that he had on, and it worked great).

    Good Luck!

    Love,
    Sheila

  8. Your verbal skills are awesome. And although daddy out ranks you now, pretty soon your little finger will be busy wrapping him around it and you might get your way.

Mommy report: Chatty girl

Braska's been just loving her words lately. She's still signing some, mostly when we're in public or around strangers, but she's adding more words all the time. Many of her words are just attempts at the actual word, but that's where we all start, right?!? We're not saying that she'll be giving speeches next month, but we are very proud that she's become such a mimic and that she is loving using so many sounds. We practice often, just running through her words, signs, and tricks. She especially loves to chime in with videos of herself, so I've been working on compiling all her favorites for her to work with. As I was editing this, she was sitting here saying the words over and over. So funny to hear her talking to herself on the screen and loving it. So here's a peek at some clips from our practice session tonight. Some words are more obvious than others. They are all great attempts, though, and we'll celebrate that! Make an on-line

Nebraska meets Indiana

Braska's reaction to meeting the very kind Rory Feek and his beautiful daughter Indy.  I missed the part where Braska said Indy was sooooooooooo cute!  :) Our dream would be a photo showing the two most beautiful "states" together, right?!?  :)
