Browns' funniest home videos...

My ninjas getting ready for battle... Dad's "temporary" matching Mohawk.
Funny story about his picture... Actually not really about this picture but something similar. The other day Elijah asked me why I pee with the seat down. I explained that I sit and don't want to fall in the water so I put the seat down. Elijah looked at me quizzically and said " but mom, your bum is way too big, you would never fall in the water..."

Well hello good people!
Thought we would switch things up and send some "classic" video of the boys. Each day they continue to crack us up, and what we miss in "date nights" we make up for in home entertainment. School is going well for both boys and swimming and soccer has been well worth the time. Again, for all the grandparents that invested in the boys' private swim lessons, you will definitely see a return in your investment.

Micah eating peas... Elijah's loose tooth pulled...

Long story short, the other day Elijah was frustrated with his loose tooth as it was making eating uncomfortable. He decided to pull it out with his remote control car, but the initial attempt with him bravely at the controls resulted in the string slipping off the tooth. This video shows dad holding his head up and gunning the engine, resulting in the tooth launching over by my feet. He was so tuff through it all and continues to amaze us with his ideas. The other option was to tie the string to Bosco and call him to come running, but that dog doesn't run anywhere.

As for Micah, his latest antic is... "BUT I LOVE YOU..." Anytime he is getting disciplined he likes to throw his arms around my neck, kiss me and nestle in with the but I love you momma... Good thing I have nerves of steel...

Happy New Year!!!

Waiting for the tooth fairy... Crabby is holding the tooth... Rockin the Hawks...
Someone lost a tooth!!!The Brown triplets playing Angry Birds...Note dad's subtle mohawk...

Our Christmas concert prince...

Our singing sensation

Well Christmas came and went and we all survived. It was a quiet one in the Brown house, just the four of us. Christmas eve we went out to Uncle Sheldon's house and Christmas night mom had to work midnight shift so we stayed close to home. The nicest part was that on Christmas day we were playing baseball outside in the back yard... Can't remember the last time we could say that about Christmas in Alberta!

Micah and I were blessed with all the gifts given by friends and family, and we are especially excited about what we are going to do with the money from all our grandparents... We get to have private swim lessons and do KARATE!!! Mom is still looking into the karate/tae kwan do/ kung fu, but swimming starts in two weeks and we already had our initial assessment. Our teacher says that he can have us swimming 1km by the time he is done with us!!!

As for New Years, we were in bed at the regular time, Dad fell asleep at 9:30, and mom fell asleep on the couch and was woken to her cell phone beeping with texts wishing Happy New Year at midnight... Pretty tame night at the Browns.

Over Christmas break we have been keeping busy with play dates, movie days, outside time enjoying the beautiful weather, dog park walks, and visiting our friend's new puppies and going on hay rides. We may venture into skating over the next few days as mom and dad are realizing that it is a necessity for kids living in Canada.

We will try to keep the posts coming in the New Year.

Love and prayers, Blessings in 2012!!
