Hi Everybody!
We haven't checked in for a while cause mommy broke her computer, but we are finally back.

We're excited for summer! Next week is our last week of school, and our graduation. We'll be sure to share some pictures. I can't believe we're almost done with our very first year. Next year, we'll be in preschool! Totally big kids!

So, between you and me (Brynn), I've gotta share something that's been bugging me.

Mom said before that Maryn can tell me and Leah apart.

NOT!

She totally can't. She calls us "the Leah's!" Can't we be the Brynn's?

Every time she calls me Leah, I tell her I am BRYNN as LOUD as I can.

I hope she gets it figured out! I don't like being called Leah.

We've kinda been fighting a lot lately. Sometimes Leah will sing, and I don't want her to sing, so I scream at her to STOP. But she JUST SINGS LOUDER.

Or, Maryn will make a noise that sounds like "ahhhhhh!!" I tell her to stop, but she doesn't listen. So, then just to get even I will touch them in the car even though they don't want me to! HA! Take that!

Mom says all she wants for Christmas is ear plugs.

Other fun news: I peed on the big girl potty twice today. Go me! I got to flush by myself and I got some M&M's. I am really not sure about this whole potty thing, but mom and dad seem really ready for me to give up my diapers. You should have heard them cheer when I went today! I guess we're having a potty boot camp and a "say goodbye to diapers" party the first week of June. Wish us luck!

Medical News: We are finally recovering from our latest round of ear infections, so thanks for your prayers. I think we've had 5-6 since January. We're getting kind of used to seeing the doctor. Maryn has also been diagnosed with asthma. She and mommy have a meeting with Dr. Oster next week to talk about that. We'll let you know how it goes.

Last Sunday was Mommy's Day. Mommy got to sleep in and we brought her flowers. We even made her a beautiful stepping stone for her garden. (Now, she just has to get a garden)

We went to lunch a Papa's golf club.

Here are some pictures!

Enjoy!

We promise not to wait so long for the next update.

We hear you miss us!

Love,

Brynn

Go Team Jonswold!!!

Wow, what a day! Today, we marched for babies! We went out in the rain and raised over $2,100 for preemies! That is WAY more than I can count to. (but, I can count to 15 in English and 10 in Spanish! Pretty good, huh?)

When we got to the walk we played at the park while we waited for our friends to join us. We wanted to stay FAR away from the scary people dressed up as barnyard animals. Dad called them "mascots" and said they were nice. I disagree.

Here is a picture of my family. Mom says we are blessed cause we are all together and healthy. There were a lot of blessed families walking with us today! I know there were some families who were missing special babies too. That's why we were walking.

When the countdown to race time started, we loaded up! Here is a picture of us with our buddies Jack and Kaelan.

Ready, Set, GO!!!

All along the trail there were stops with snacks and prizes.

Pretty sure walks don't get better than that!

Here is a picture of us with our Mimi, Papa and Auntie Lauren. Cheese!

After the race we went out for lunch. I was so tired that I slept through lunch in Mimi's arms.

I woke up just in time to have a bite of my favorite Mac and Cheese before heading home.

Here is a picture of our team at Champps!

GO TEAM JONSWOLD!

Thanks to every single one of you who walked with us, donated or thought of us on this special day.

Love, Leah

P.S. On a completely unrelated, but still very important subject.....We said BYE BYE to our baby cribs!!!Big girl beds only for these big girls. No night time escapes, but we HAVE been getting up early enough in the moring to tune in for the first Blue's Clues episode on Nick Jr. (for those of you without kids, that means 6 a.m.) When we were in our cribs, mom didn't let us out until Arthur. (7 a.m.) Mom says we are her little roosters. Cockadoodledoooooooooooo!!!!!!!

Ring, Ring....

Do you hear it??

It's the ice cream truck!!

We remembered the sound from last year...and we went RUNNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ohhhhhh, thank you beautiful truck for bringing tasty treats right to our house.

We can hardly wait for next Tuesday!

YUMMMMMMMY!

The Neighborhood

Hi Everybody!

We just want to take a second, first, to thank you for giving money to help babies be born healthy.

We appreciate all of you so much! We hope that someday all preemies are just as healthy as us!

So, you are probably wondering what we do all day now that it is nice out.

If it were up to me (Brynn) I would swing ALL day.

(and I mean from the minute I crawl out of my crib until the sun goes down)

But, since mom's got stuff to do and she can't push me all day, we do other stuff too.

We love to go to the park, and play in our yard. We also love to scooter.

Leah can ride her trike all by herself. Me and Maryn are still working on it.

We really love to play with all of our neighbors.

Guess what?? Our neighbor Sydney found a frog today.

AND...she even let me hold it!

Maryn and Leah (and mommy!) were scared of the frog. They didn't want to hold it.

But, I thought it was cool!

Here are a few more pictures of us "scootering" and pushing our babies today.

Oh, how we love the sunshine!

Bye Mom!

We're lucky to have lots of friends right in our neighborhood!

Love,

Brynn

Old McDonald's

Today, we went to play with our buddy Kaelan.

Here is a picture of us climbing "Highest Hill" at our church.

Daddy says it is the REAL highest hill from Dora. It IS pretty high!

Here is a picture of Maryn and Kaelan.

Maryn and Kaelan, sitting in a tree...

After our play time, we asked mommy if we could go to "Old McDonald's" for lunch and get a burger and fries.

She laughed and said yes! We love "Old McDonald's."

Enjoy Mr. sun today!

Love,

MBL
