Brooklyn was not about sticking her hand in the pumpkin this year, but being her dainty self, was trying to clean it out with a little spoon one seed at a time.:)</div>

These are some pictures of Braden at 5 months when we took Brooklyn's 3 year old pictures. This little guy is not really so little!! At his six month checkup he weighed 19.5 lbs and 27.75 inches (90+ percentiles). He started army crawling right when he turned 5 months and really crawling right when he turned 6 months. He is getting so busy now, clapping, waving, going up stairs and standing up on everything.</div>

Brooklyn is so full of life!! That is what I love about her most! There is never a dull moment with her around. Just like her daddy:) She is cautious yet fearless, meaning she never gets hurt but will try anything. She came into this world knowing what she wants and can get a room full of people to do exactly that. Brooklyn is so loving and sensitive. Sometimes all she wants to do is snuggle:) I am constantly amazed at how intelligent and logical she is. I see a little scientist, who studies things or concepts and learn them in and out, wanting to know more. She loves to dance, sing, and make up stories. She is a little ham, who likes to tease.</div>

We celebrated with a few friends, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. For dinner there was pizza and for dessert, we had stethoscope sugar cookies, bandaid graham crackers, cake, gumballs, suckers, and mints. Also, each kid got their very own big book of boo boos!</div>

We had planned to go to the zoo earlier that day but it was canceled due to a trip to the ER for grandma Olsen. She was helping me setup chairs when her finger got caught between two while I was trying to pull them apart. Her entire pinky fingernail was ripped out of the nail bed and the tip of her finger broken :( She still made it to the party, thanks to a heavy dose of medication, stitches and cast! Of all the days to be doctored, she picked this one:)</div>

On the 24th, it is a family tradition to go to my Grandma Gardiner's house to watch the Liberty Park fireworks. I think this is the first year my grandma didn't step outside to watch the fireworks:( She is 92 and pretty weak from her cancer, but always happy to have us around.</div>

The little guy had his two month check-up at the end of May. He's a heavy weight, weighing in at 13 lbs 14 oz (93rd percentile) and 24 inches tall (90th percentile). Rolls are starting to appear everywhere along with a double chin. He is now smiling and cooing. Plus, he still has all of his hair. I think it makes him look like a little man.....so cute:)</div>

</div>Before they started me I was 3+ centimeters dilated and 80 percent effaced. At 3:15 they started me on a very slow pitocin drip. The nurse was going between our room and another one and she didn't want us to delivery at the same time. The doctor broke my water at around 5:30 and I was dilated to a 6. He left and said that he only needs 12 minutes to get back. A few contractions later I told the nurse it felt like I need to go to the bathroom and so she checked me. She told me she felt head and that she was going to call the doctor and that I should try not to push. (A request that was very hard to do!!) My doctor came a few minutes later after driving 95 mph. He walked in his house just to turn around and drive right back to the hospital. After pushing for about 90 seconds our little guy was born at 6:31 pm. Just over 3 hours of labor!</div><div class="separator" style="border: currentColor; clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-h-zUy9sWnLs/T4XUxaoYs8I/AAAAAAAAByM/u3_hI-17yKA/s1600/olsenbaby_(97).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="270" qda="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-h-zUy9sWnLs/T4XUxaoYs8I/AAAAAAAAByM/u3_hI-17yKA/s400/olsenbaby_(97).jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="border: currentColor; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="border: currentColor; clear: both; text-align: center;">He has lots of hair!! Just slightly more than his older sister had and a little darker too. I think he looks a lot like his older sister when she was born. Brooklyn kept telling everyone that her mama and dada were at the "restaurant." I think she finally understood what was going on when she saw him at the hospital. When she first saw him she wasn't quite sure about him. She just wanted to look at him and not hold him, but she warmed up pretty quick :) </div><div style="border: currentColor;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-La7S98-HT9k/T4XWZCqulrI/AAAAAAAABzk/rHTXYfR9pi8/s1600/olsenbaby_(67).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" qda="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-La7S98-HT9k/T4XWZCqulrI/AAAAAAAABzk/rHTXYfR9pi8/s400/olsenbaby_(67).jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

She sings about everything she is doing and makes up her own songs. She sings the entire alphabet, "twinkle, twinkle little star"(after only hearing it one time), the disney junior commercials, sesame street songs, mickeymouse clubhouse songs, and the list goes on and on.</div><div align="center">- She counts to 15 and knows all of her colors and shapes.</div><div align="center">- She spells her name (she has actually done this since 18 months).</div><div align="center">- She will tell you how old she is.<br />
- She will finally let me do her hair sometimes :)<br />
- They call her the "the counselor" in nursery because she tells the ones who are crying, "It's ok, momma and dadda right back."</div><div align="center">- Finally, some Brooklyn-isms:<br />
If you are walking away from her she will say "wait, I'm coming," <br />
If I do something she wants me to do she will say, "good girl momma," <br />
If you ask her what she is doing she will tell you that she is "playing with (whoever she is with)," <br />
If she notices you are upset or distressed she will tell you "it's ok," <br />
Every task is "Brooklyn do," <br />
If I catch her doing something she is not suppose to, she will tell me to "stay mamma," (if come closer I can see what she is doing:)), <br />
If there are big and small sizes of the same thing, the smaller one will inevitably have a "baby" prefix, <br />
She claps her hands calling you over like a dog saying "here dadda," <br />
Or she says random things like "where's woody's hat?," "cars are ouchie," "watch out." <br />
Last but certainly not least, she says "I love you." (melts my heart!)<br />
