There are many many funny things that brinley has said in the last year, many I dont remember but one stands.

The quote of the year:

Brett is in the bathroom and Brinley comes in and screams STOP SQUEEZING IT! STOP SQUEEZING IT! PEE FROM YOUR BUTT.... brett asks: who pees from their butt? Brinley: me and mom do! because of this- boy parts are and forever will be known as squeezer parts!

LOL The quote of the year cracks me up. Where do kids come up with stuff like that LOL. She is such a big girl. I wish that we could have been near so that we could have celebrated her birthday with her. Keep posting pictures and keeping us updated. She is so beautiful and her smile makes me melt.

Happy Happy Birthday Brinley!!
I can't believe she is 3 either. I have so many fun memories of Brinley it's hard to choose just one. The first one that comes to my head though is the firs time I met her down in St. George and we were both figuring out the mommy thing together! Pushing them in the stroller together at the mall and everyone was asking us if they were twins ah so funny! Love you Brinley!!!
