baby nap time

2009-09-30T12:14:00.000-07:00

We have a new ritual at the Horsley house.
We regularly hold nap time for all babies.

it's really quite simple......

First-you have to hold your baby close
and rock it to sleep

next you pat the babies back and sing a little lullaby...it goes
to the tune of the ABC's but it is more like A-b-b-b-b-b-b
(she get's a little carried away with the letter b)

next you place the baby on the pillow and hold it down while
saying shhh shhh shhh shhh shhh

if your babies are really fussy you can lay down with them

and finally, everyone is asleep and happy!

that is until a baby rolls off the pillow and get's a stern talking

to about staying on your pillow!!

so funny the things she is picking up! her mothering skills are

already kicking in!!!

Meet lola....

2009-09-24T07:42:00.000-07:00

a couple of weeks ago this little mutt

wandered up to our office during lunch.

She was matted and hungry. Her dew

claws had grown around and found

themselves burried into her paw. I

took one look at her and my heart sank.

She looked so much like my Shi-tzu gizmo

and she just needed a loving home. I took
her home and she did great with Lilly and Gizmo.

I took her to the vet and her health checked

out. Dr Brown said she was about 1.5 years old,

and a Shitzu pekengese mix.

She had no collar and no one seemed to be

looking for her. That's when we realized she

was here to stay. After a trip to the groomer

i give you the new and improved Lola...

She is so happy and is blending great with our crew.

She even passed the 1 year old rolling on you test.

She makes a great addition to our family and she has made

herself quite comfortable on the couch. She went from

homeless to living the good life!

random but cute

2009-07-02T18:51:00.000-07:00

I have lots of random things to post about tonight, first Brooklyn has decided that EVERYTHING should go on her head. bowls, baskets, blankets, and much more have become "hats" around here. Tonight Brooklyn found the perfect hat! It fits snugly on your head and the best part is you can see when you walk around wearing it. Brooklyn made me laugh so much wearing this tub on her head. she even rode her horse while wearing it.(I got that on video, will upload soon)

Here is Brooklyn dive-bombing Clint, she thinks it is great fun to sneak up on him and pounce! Those 2 love to play in the floor and give each other so much love! So sweet!

Brooklyn in her cute Gymboree dress she got from Robert and Debbie for her birthday!

And last but not least i couldn't resist sharing these stylish poses in her Hawaiian shirt!

Hope everyone has a safe and fun 4th of july!!!

love, the HORSLEYS

Have your cake and eat it too!

2009-06-29T13:44:00.000-07:00

Happy Fathers Day Clint

2009-06-23T08:03:00.000-07:00

For fathers day I took took a picture of clint and brooklyns hands (when she was 2 weeks old)and overlayed it with the song lyrics "daddy's hands" it turned out really cute and i think CLint loved it! Happy 2nd Fathers day Clint!

thanks for being such a great "da da" Clint! You are the best!

Yes, this is clint and Brooklyn watching TMZ, we are teaching her about trash TV early! haha

Spaghetti

2009-06-18T19:11:00.000-07:00

Brooklyn had her first adventure with spaghetti

last week. As you can see she had more fun playing

with it than she did eating it!! She kept looking at

me thinking she was going to get in trouble but

we just let her be a kid and have fun playing and eating.

Hope everyone has a great day!

love the Horsleys!

Brooklyn fell right into a book case at school on Tuesday. Grammie kim thought it might have needed a stitch but i think it is going to heal just fine! Poor baby, her teacher said she didn't even cry!
