*Brooklyn's First Day Of Preschool*

The day started out early when Brooklyn woke up at 730am having a accident in our bed, which i think is cause she had so much to drink before going to bed even after she went potty before bedtime. It was 11am and i made her eat lunch and then we got ready to go to school. She was so happy and so excited to go to school. Daddy couldnt drop off Brooklyn with me because he was the only one at work and couldnt leave. :( Brooklyn and i arrived at school and she went off and started playing in the play-do with Gracie. When all of us moms went to leave Cadan didnt want his mom to leave and started crying. Poor guy! There was only 3 kids plus Brooklyn today because one little girl was sick and 3 cant start till sept and 1 in jan. They colored a apple pic and then used scissors and made a apple pic with red paper and glue. Very cute job she did! They traced their names and Brooklyn told Mrs. Padgett she spelled her name wrong because of the way she made the k and to Brooklyn it looked like a r. lol They all went threw their colors and the only one the 4 of them had problems with was grey. They learnt a new song "Peanut butter and jelly". Brooklyn had fun playing with all the kids. Today we had Brookyln, Gracie, Ashlee and Cadan in her class. Poor guy was the only one in there! At 230 i went and picked her up and they sang us parents the peanut butter and jelly song and then it was time to leave, well Brooklyn didnt want too! We then finally got in the car and left to go to daddy's work so she could show him her pictures and tell him about her day. After that we made a stop at gamma and pappi's house. Brookyln got to see Emmalee and Victoria Faith! She was so happy to see Emmalee! They gave each other big hugs as soon as that door came open! They played for a while and then Brooklyn started playing with Tori and that kind of upset Emmalee. After a few minutes Brooklyn was playing with everyone! After a long day of being up we headed home and Brooklyn fell asleep in the car for 5 mins and we got home and she woke right up so we could watch the new Hannah Montana movie! So far so good on the movie!

Mommy enjoyed being away from Brooklyn and not having to work today. Went and got my hair cut which was needed so bad and then i took Camden some lunch and came home and relaxed, soon i wont be able to cause Abby will be here soon enough! So we are going to enjoy as much of it as i can!

Vacation time / 28 wk check up

Where to begin? This year we went on our vacation and headed off to the reunion. Camden left and went down thursday to truman lake and spent some time at our lake lot at bent tree harbor. He didnt have too much luck with fishing because the water was low. He had a nice time being by himself which i was happy cause he needed it. Friday Brooklyn and i were off to the reunion and followed my dad down there since he wasnt going the way he normally does. Camden beat us down there and got the room ready and turned the air on! :) On the way down we stopped at a amish store and we got some stuff there. We finally arrived at the resort little after noon and got our bags all settled in the room. We went swimming that afternoon for a while and then Camden took Gaige and Brooklyn fishing down by the boat docks and ramps but no luck of catching fish! They got some nibbles but nothing else. That evening we had our group gathering and we ate homemade ice cream and let me tell ya even though there was not much there since not alot showed up this year it was still very yummy! Saturday we went and got 800 lbs of rock my parents bought for what heck if i know! CRAZY! It rained the first part of the morning there but other than that it quit towards the afternoon. We went swimming for a while on sat and then mostly stayed around the resort ate lunch, played games! That evening they had dinner catered in and it was ok, after dinner we had our auction and we still brought in over 1000 for only have 60 people there this year. Saturday night little miss Abby was being a pain in the you know what and i was so uncomfortable. She was everywhere and even laying down was not helping! Finally at 1am i was able to lay down and get some sleep until my dad came in and fell asleep! Then the horrible snoring began! Sunday we all slept in and went and ate breakfast. We had our business meeting and elected new officers and thank god once again Camden didnt get elected! I dont know how he would have been able to help plan anything with his work schedule but he thinks he could have done it! He got drug into it anyway thanks to dad and they are supposed to be planning a float trip and looking for a new place to go next year! After that we were off to head home! :) Couldnt wait till i got home! Besides the beds were not comfortable and dad snoring and Brooklyn kept running down to the pool with out a life jacket on and noone around her it was a good time! Cant wait to see what next year brings to us! Monday we went to the kc zoo with Macynna and Jared and the girls had so much fun! By the 4th hour they were tired and cranky so we left. I will soon get pics of the zoo on facebook cause i took over 200 pics~ Tuesday we had to go back to work and let me tell ya i was not looking forward to it!

Tuesday i had my 28 wk check up with the dr. I had to be there @8am and they did the retake of the 3 d sono, which i am glad they did! Abby was still not cooperating like we wanted her too but she was better than the last one i had done so we got some cute poses of her! She took measurements of her and she was measuring to be almost 3 weeks a head of schedule! She weighed 3 lbs and 2 oz and her heart beat jumped all the way to 158. So our little girl is growing like a weed! After the sono i waited to see Dr Olhausen ( the one that delivered Brooklyn) and he said most likely it looks like i will go early by the way she is growing! Other than that him measuring my stomach by his hands i am measuring just right! He put in my file the growth of her from the sono and checked all the other measurements from all the other ones i have had done. He checked the dates to see when i would be due with her growth and so now we are looking at anytime pretty much in Oct the way she is growing! My next visit will be my last monthly visit and then its every 2 weeks! :) that means its getting close! I get to go see Dr Olhausen again on my next visit!

I was off to take Brooklyn to Bobbi's for the day and i get a phone call and i let it just ring since it was unknown and i never answer them, well come to find out it was work and they were throwing me and another girl a baby shower and it was at 11. Well noone bothered to tell me about it and i had been on vacation and so i assumed i needed to be to work at 1130 when i was scheduled to be there . So i called them back and they are like where are you? I am like who was the one that was supposed to call me and tell me about the shower? They preceeded to tell me that they posted it on the board on a friday (when i was not there). I asked do u all look at people's schedules cause i have been on vacation for the past week and a half! So needless to say i have no so bright people i work with! I was there for my shower for 15 mins and then i had to go to work. I got alot of newborn stuff so lets hope she fits into it all! I am good on onesies up to 3 months now! Got alot of cute clothes and sleepers and they made me a diaper cake made out of huggies diapers! I told them i wanted to use pampers along time ago because Brookyln had issues with alot of diapers so instead of going threw all that again i was just sticking to pampers! Well i guess i am going to have to try and see if she breaks out from them so they dont go to waste and if she does i can give them to people i know thats prego again! Overall it was ok and the shower was very nice and thoughtful and i appreciate they thought about us both!

Now cant wait till the baby q on the 22nd! So far we have had a few rsvp back but hopefully we have more so we know how much food to cook and get! Cant wait to spend time with family and friends! :) <3

Miss Abigail

*Miss Abigail Rae Summers*

* Miss Abigail Rae *

It's official! We had our 3 d sono done today and we found out its a girl!!!!!! We had chosen some names and when they first suspected it being a girl we told Brooklyn and she said she wanted to name her sister Abby Rae, so it stuck! We still have one stubborn child on our hands! This time she would not move so they could get some full shots of her face all you could see was her side! She was busy snuggling up to my uterus and would not budge!!! We got to see some cute poses but not good enough to capture on a pic. She opened her mouth one time and then she moved her hands! TOO CUTE! She hopefully will get out of being so stubborn when she actually arrives in the world! They checked her heartbeat and it was strong and steady at 145, and they said she is almost 2 pounds! She is actually a head of schedule on her weight. So either the little missy is probably going to come earlier than Oct 30 or she is going to be bigger than 7 lbs like her sister was! I liked the name Abigail and we decided on Rae so it was a name that stuck in the family. My middle name is Rae and so was Camden's mother's so she is taking after me and her grandma. Once again Camden is out numbered in the house and its official no more kids after this! Wonder who she is going to take after!

-The storm-

Evidently we had a bad storm come threw friday morning and down here it looked like a tornado hit! We all slept right threw it too! I got up and got Brookyn and me ready to go to Laura's house to play with Macynna and walked outside to leave and thats when all you see is tree limbs down everywhere and a big tree down in our yard! BOOO! I left and the whole way out of Camden there is tree limbs in roads and its not looking pretty. I called Camden and asked him if he saw the big tree down in our back yard and he is said no! I am wondering to myself how on earth do you not see a big tree as big as it was down in our back yard especially when its on top of his tree stand! Well anyways he said that the rain was so bad it blew in the front door at his work but nothing got ruined which was a plus for him and louis. It was not just us that got hit it was everywhere! Long story short i went to work and then went and got Camden and when we got home he saw the backyard and he was mad! The tree bent his tree stand and now he cant fix it and so he went and started cutting it up that night but its still sitting in our back yard with it being so big its going to take a little while to get rid of it with the hours he works. Well i got some pics of it but it was dark and foggy that night so they didnt really come out very good, but if you have been down here there are 2 big trees in our backyard and they are almost directly in front of the porch on the back of the house well the one on the left side of the house half of it came tumbling down and landed away from the house, thank goodness it didnt come towards the house! The other storm we had last year that was pretty windy took part of the other tree in the backyard so it has a hunk missing out of it too. So now they match LOL! Camden is more upset with his tree stand being ruint over the tree coming down. I think Brooklyn was more upset because her swimming pool got tree branches in it and all around it and luckily it didnt pop it or we would have one 3 yr old not a happy camper. She was already not happy when she walked out and seen the branches because she cant swim till it gets cleaned out now!

*Brooklyn & Macynna*

brooklyn and macynna

This past week Brooklyn has been having so much fun playing with Macynna. Macynna comes home to her dad every so often from California. This past week Brooklyn has been going over to Macynna's gma's to play with her and then she had her very first sleepover with Macynna friday night. She did very good and got out of bed one time before bedtime to go potty. Once they went to sleep they stayed a sleep thank goodness! I think it was also due to no nap that day! They played in the water and played with sidewalk chalk after they got wet and it was like paint after that! They have been playing in the swimming pool over at Laura's house and been having a fun time together. They had so much fun! Sat morning i went to pick her up and Jared, Stephanie and me and the girls went to lawson to watch their parade and Brooklyn showed somewhat interest in it but not a lot. Mostly shriners in the parade and thats about it. Well that afternoon we got back and the girls took their naps and we met back up to go back to lawson for the carnival! They had so much fun with at the carnival. They rode all the little kids rides and some big rides with Camden and Jared. There is only about a month and a half difference in age and Brooklyn is older. As soon as Camden got off i went and got him and he came back up and rode some rides with the girls! It was so cute watching him get into the dragons and tea cups! LOL Camden and Brooklyn rode the big slide and they both had fun. Overall Sat was a busy day and we were all tired and worn out by that night!

~24 week check up~

I went to the dr office on tues and it went rather well. It was my glucose testing so i had to down a nasty fruit punch drink. Nothing like a pure sugar drink! NASTY! I felt like crap all day from that test and even though i ate something it still made me feel like poop! I have not gained any weight since my last visit so i have a feeling its gonna be like last time with Brooklyn and gain it all my last 2 months! I go back on monday the 13th to have a 3 d sono done and i am hoping (cross the fingers) that this is gonna tell 100% of what the sex of the baby is! So we will see!
Tuesday Brooklyn went to my supervisiors' house and played with Macynna! She had so much fun with her and played all day. She played a total of 6 hours in the pool and she was a little crispy from it but she is once again like Camden and she is tan after 2 days! That evening she slept from 7:45pm to 8:30 the next morning! Yesterday Camden and Steven went down to truman and went fishing! They had no luck catching fish so they came back early and went somewhere else fishing! That evening Camden came home and started mowing and we put up Brooklyn's green pool. We have a lot to teach her because she kept getting in and out and now there is grass floating in it! GO FIGURE! I finished up mowing and ran over a brown snake, dont know what kind it was but i keep seeing them in the same spot in the yard, well anyways other than that not a lot going on at our house! Brookyln is having a blast playing with Macynna and going to her grandma's house and playing in her pool!

~It's been a while~

It's been a while since i have been on here! What's been going on, well we went to my 20 week check up on june 9th and everything is good, baby is growing like crazy. They tried 2 times to get a pic to make it 100% official that its a girl and this child is very active and stubborn. It kept its legs closed the whole time and would not open up for nothing. I got back for my glucose test on the 7th of July which i am not looking forward too cause it makes me very sick and after my appointment i have to go straight to work! :( We then go back to have a 3 d sono done and hopefully will get a pic to show 100 % its a girl. We have thought about names and we let Brooklyn the big sister decide and if it is a girl 100% she wants her sisters name to be Abigail Rae ( Abby for short) and if comes to be a boy we are still on Colton Dean or Hunter Eugene. Brooklyn is very excited about being big sister and cant wait! Well father's day Camden and I both had to work which my day went ok and it was really boring but Cam's didnt go so well. He has been needing a new phone cause his phone went to poo and so he has been using mine and you cant hear him very well on it. Well he got a hold of our phone company and needless to say they made him mad cause they want more money out of us after he were to get a new phone for some plan you have to have or the new phone wont work. CROCK OF POO! We went by my parents house last night as well and spent some time with my parents and then we were headed home and Cam's little red car breaks down and he cant get it to start. He has checked all the major big parts and it still wont start, so him and his buddy Steven are going to work on it again tonight. Mom had her surgery on the 17th and it went really well and she is getting up and around really good and will be off for 6 weeks. Other than that nothing else has really been going on besides its been really hot out and humid but i dont have to complain because i have not been miserable yet with the heat, its just been my sinuses. We missed Anna's bday this year due to having to work but on a brighter note she turned 2! She is growing up quick!
