What's new, you may ask?

Too much to post about, I say!
A new house update is coming, but for now I will post a picture of my lovely lady:

She is my little sunshine. She's still my shadow, but becoming more and more Rhya's shadow every day. Rhya knows what to do to make her laugh and she also knows how to play on Brielle's level.
It's very common for Rhya to urge, "Brielle!! Come play on the bunk with me!!" Brielle giggles and goes running off to climb to the top bunk and play with kittens or books or just romp around up there.

Brielle knows how to make a person laugh. She enjoys tilting her head sideways and looking up at you slyly with a mischievous grin. She'll hold the pose until she gets your attention and then laughs and RUNS away.

Brielle is NOT to be left out. She ended up with her own electric toothbrush and points to her teeth and says "AAH" every time she sees someone else brushing.

Just give her some livestock and she'll be happy for a LONG time.

Rides are great fun. We were hauling apple trees up the hill tonight and the girls were in their glory. The hike up the hill was interesting but Brielle just bounced along and Rhya tramped behind.

Brielle holds a special key to her big sister's heart.

A picture perfect way to end another day with these sweet peas.

Things I don't want to forget about Brielle:

- The way she burrows her head into my shoulder whenever I ask, "Do you want to lay your head on my shoulder?

- The way she hops up and down w' glee (not really hopping, more like fast squats) and breaths in and out super fast whenever I ask her if she wants something.

- The way she says MA-Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

- The way she asks to nurse (quickly taps her thumb and pointer finger together)

- The way she signs please- puts both hands on top of her head (she totally made it up)

- The way she says 'Rhya': Arah
