No means Yes and Yes means Yes!

 Here's my precious little sister learnin' the difference between 'yes' and 'no'.

Make sure you notice Jessie's mini tantrum when Kimmi fixes her dress. ;D

• Ten Things I Love Tuesdays •

 

Here they are!

All ten toes of the baby who I love very, very much.

Psalm 139:14
 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.

• Jessie's Second Christmas Tree •

Mark 10:14

Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.

Merry Christmas!!

• Jessie Worshiping •

  For as long as I can remember, we have been singing the song Crown Him With Many Crowns during our family worship, and once Max, 3 1/2, came along he started thrusting his fists into the air about every 30 seconds with the tempo of the song.  For example: Crown Him wih many crowns (He woud throw his hands up after this line.) And then: the Lamb upon the throne (He'd do it here too.) Hark how the heavenly anthem drowns all music but it's own. (You get what I'm saying? ) It's very cute and contagious but has become more of a sporting event in the Brown household. We all do it now. Even Jessie. It's so cute, and it makes her look like a big girl. We're really not charasmatic, but maybe Jessie's trying to push us in that direction. heehee

The first little Brown kid that really really loved this song was Kamryn, 7 1/2. When  the babies are young they always just walk around while we read the bible and talk, but if we ever want that little one to come sit with us we just break out in Crown Him With Many Crowns. We know if we do that whatever baby is walking around will come running to find a lap to sit and sing along.

Jessies's mouth is wide open because she's singing with passion! Or at least she's attemptig to sing. It's more like a loud yell, but as you can very well see Jessie gets into it what she's doing.

Last night was the first time she started doing it, so this is definitely "blog" worthy! ;)

• Baby Curls & Block Parties •

 I had some oh so adorable pictures of Jessie up yesterday, but this morning, I took them off because my mom thought she looked nasty... she did.. but she was such a cute looking nasty  baby! My mom said I should just put some pictures of her all dressed  and pretty.

She had jelly all over her face, and she was only in a diaper.

These pics were taken a few Sunday ago, and she was wearing the same dress but one looks purple and one looks blue... or is that just me? 

I love this one because it really shows off her baby curls! SO SWEET!

I'm getting excited because I'm just about to go get on my costume. I haven't dressed up for halloween since I was probably 12, but our family, and Emily my friend, will be going to a block party in about an hour.

I'm going to be Esmerelda from the Hunchback of Notredame, and Cason's going to be Quazimoto. You know... the hunch back. haha... It cracks me up thinking about him dressing up as Quazimoto!

Cason's so sweet!!!

Now how many bigger younger brothers would dress up for their sister? I'm really not sure, but Cason is one of them! =D

I'll post pictures of everyone's costume's later.

Hope every one is having a really great day! =)

•Jessie's New Toy•

We went to the mountains last week and while we were there, we all went to our favorite little gift shop called The Wrinkled Egg. It's so cute and it has lots of toys, candles, candy, real bunnies and pizza. Jessie, my 15 month old little sister, who usually doesn't have too many tantrums "threw one" in The Wrinkled Egg. My mom was holding her, and she showed Jessie a little toy. Ok, I say toy, but this thing was no toy. Especially not a toy for a baby girl. The toy was shaped like a jelly octopus, and it had eyeballs on each of the many, many tentacles. When my mom put this "toy" back Jessie started to cry. Then it got worse, and worse. She got more and more mad and she was screaming, and she was crying. We were leaving, mainly because she was being so loud, and we got in the van. My dad got in the car and my mom told him why she was so upset, and so my dad sent me in to go buy it for her. My dad came in after me with Jessie. He told her in her ear all the way that" Daddy's gunna get you the toy." It was very sweet and gracious of my dad. She went from crying histerically to VERY happy. It was so cute. That was the first time she has ever cried because she wanted something from a store, so my guess is that's why my dad let in. He's just getting too soft in his old age. Jessie is the youngest and just might end up being a little bit spoiled. =D

OK, sorry, I just had to add this picture. It's fake of course. I have this picture as the screen saver for my moms iPod, and makes me laugh every time I see it!

 I haven't posted in a long time, as I'm sure you can see, but I'll update shortly. = )

Hope all is well with every one!

Most Beautiful Weather EVER!

I'm sitting on my porch because it is so GORGEOUS outside! I love this time of year, this and fall, when it's not too cold and not too hot. It's actually more warm than cold right now. I love it! This is the best time to sit outside and read a book, or make a blog post. I love reading outside when it's breezy. I'm starting to get more excited about summer. I usually don't like summer as much as spring and fall because, like my dad, I'm not a heat person. I'm tired of it being cold and there is always a way to keep cool somehow in the summer. = ) Well, I'm going to go read a book. I'm Reading the book A Morbid Taste For Bones and it's definitely not my favorite read so far, but it's for school. = ) 

I know this picture has absolutely nothing to do with what I'm talking about but I just love it!
