Terrible Twos

Lindsey is so cute and is a joy to have but she is now in the middle of the Terrible Twos. This is a stage in a toddlers life where they try to be more independant but cannot express their needs very good still. So Lindsey has not been a very good listener or obeying us very much and she has been getting into everything with more messes. She likes to write on the walls especially. Tanner went through the same thing when he was about three and I'm so grateful that he has been out for a while. A couple of things for advise to all others:

Spend more time watching out for what they do! Start using time-out and take away priviliges for bad actions. DO NOT GIVE IN because Tantrums will occur. Make sure you continually go over rules and set limits for things and even start giving them small choices of what they want with your guidance.

As we are doing these things it is a little easier to transition through. A good thing is that Lindsey is alot more helpful and is great at picking and cleaning up a few things.

Maren Kae Brown

The New Baby is Here!!!

Finally after a few days of continuous contractions and wondering, our new baby has finally been born. And what a cute girl she is! Everyone is healthy and strong. We are still going with MAREN as the first name but still undecided about middle yet. Born on Sunday 5/18/2008 at 2:29 am. Weighing 6 Lb, 4.6 oz and 18 inches long. Bigger than Tanner and Lindsey by 1 1/2 pounds almost. More pictures to come soon.

Mother's Day

I always get a nice gift for my mother on mother's day but the only thing Carie always wants is flowers and that is what I usually get. But this year I found a different gift that matches what she always wants. Fruit Flowers! She has been craving fruit alot this pregnancy. Oh, by the way, we think the new baby will be coming this week. Lots of contractions in the past few days.

Super Smash Brawl for Wii anyone?

Played this game a few times and am now pretty into it for the Wii. I still am not very good, but need some more practicing. Who is the strongest character so I can learn and destroy? Let me know when you want to play?

Anyone get Mario Cart yet and can let me know if it is worth getting and playing?
