Little Brother

Ryan Michael Burk

Ryan came Sunday morning at 12:34!
He was 7lbs 15 ounces, and 20 in.




Dr. Spencer with Ryan... He is an awesome doctor!



These were our awesome nurses, minus one... Kim is holding Ryan, she took care of us the most, then behind is Dawn, and Kaitlyn, Corri is the missing nurse. They did such an aweome job taking care of us. They were so fun. Corri and Kim helped with the delivery and they are best friends, and they were hilarious! It made the time go by fast and just made the experience even better!


Me and Baby!!




Brookie didn't know what to think about baby brother at first, but eventually warmed up. She is going to be a good big sister, she likes to give hime food, and loves giving him his binkey and blanket.
"Hold it..." Is what she likes to say!


Ryan and I are doing great. We got home yesterday and things have been going pretty smooth. He is a good baby, he enjoys sleeping and eating! Brookie has been really good and just loves to know where he is at all the time. I am really lucky to have Aaron home for the summer, he just makes me happy! I have a great family... and I have kids!! haha

Poor Brookie!

Our poor sweet little Brookie. Last week my mother in law broke her toe and had to get her foot wrapped and use crutches, then Rachel (Aaron's sister) got a really bad burn that needed wrapped, so..... Brookie walked around pointing to everything on her body saying "hurt." No worries, she is all fixed and better. Poor Girl!

Life in AZ

This is our new home! yea... It is a cute little home just right for our family! We have had fun thinking what we would like to do with it if money was no option. We painted Brookie's room and we have paint for our room. It seems like most of the stuff we would like to do is just paint for right now! The rooms are a little smaller than our Donegal Bay apartment, but we have already seemed to adjust to that!



While being here we have had some fun adventures and activities. We have been having dinner with Aaron's family just about every Sunday. Brookie loves to be with her cousins especially Michael. She always calls him ichael. But these were just some fun pictures of her and "Ichael" climbing in the toy box and talking to each other on the phones!!





Also being here Aaron has been more and more excited about fishing and hunting. Since he is a resident here and it was his birthday I got him a new fishing and hunting license. We wanted one so bad in Idaho but because he didn't have an Idaho license it was a lot harder to get one, because he didn't claim residency or something like that. ANYWAYS.... at church one Sunday while in a meeting, Aaron asked if anyone had a row boat anybody wanted to get rid of. Well its not quite a row boat, but it was enough to make Aaron happy and it was free, so it made me happy!


So, of course, that wasn't our only adventure! Aaron got a fishing license, and he got me one too so we could all go fishing as a fam!



And yes, that is a little princess fishing pole, for our little princess! She loved it until she dropped it in the lake, Daddy was prepared though. He caught it with his fishing net!
Okay so I know that this is probably the longest blog I have ever done, but there is more. Its okay if you just want to look at the pictures. But the other fun thing about being in AZ during the "Winter" is the "Summer" weather! We have started working out in the yard and it has been pretty fun, I have missed having a yard... SO this is our fun out in the yard!

We have a shed in the back, and as you can tell we just put a lot of our boxes and things outside, so while we were cleaning it out Brookie found a life jacket and thought it was so fun to wear!




Then she started helping daddy with the lawn. That was fun until the lawn mower ran out of gas, and Aaron had to leave for scouts. I was working on our garden area when I turned around to find Brookie, she was in the box, I guess she was all worked out!

Halloween!


Well Brookie was a little poodle!! We got the costume at Old Navy the Saturday before Halloween for $5.00! So note to self, go a week before Halloween to get the best deals on costumes! Every year Melaleuca lets you bring your kids in to trick or treat. Brookie had no problem with just digging in and getting candy! We had two buckets full. She would sign candy and everyone thought it was cute so they would give her more. Luckily for us we had trick or treaters so we just gave them some of that candy! haha.



No I didn't dress up this year. But I decided that from now on I will because Aaron can with me now!! NO MORE HALLOWEEN MONTH ENDS!! YAY

Luckily Becca hung out with me. Which Becca I am really sorry that is was so boring! I was so tired and I didn't really know what to do with a tired poodle!!
Here are some other pictures. For some odd reason the pictures are turned, oh well. But if you look at Brookie's nose its all red. Well we were at our neighbors house and she saw her friend get on the futon and run of the other side but her friend was caught when she jumped off. Well Brookie thought it looked fun but no one was there to catch her so she landed face first on the ground. It was very sad!!
