So Fun!

Having a daughter is just that....SO FUN! It's been a hectic few weeks since I last posted. I kind of wonder what I used to do with all my time. I thought I never had time to get things done before a baby??? Yea, I had no idea! ahahha Brynne has been a joy....we are constantly smiling and laughing at her. My favorite thing is to go get her out of bed after she wakes up....and I get the biggest smile ever. It melts my heart. Tonight she was talking non stop for about 10 minutes....and it was so precious. She also sticks everything in her mouth now and seems to enjoy sucking on her hand! I can hardly believe she's almost four months old!
I wanted to post one picture from tonight. After she talked forever....she fell asleep on the floor....and when I turned around to look at her, she had ahold of Reggie's fur while she was sleeping! So funny!!!!!

3rd post in one day! Ahahah

I'm trying to catch up on some pictures I wanted to share. Here are the last 2 I had to share with everyone....
The first is a picture of my baby girl all ready in the morning to go to the babysitter. She took her baby doll with her that day and just looked so precious to me.
The second is a picture of Byson and Reggie on the way home from Thanksgiving in Indiana....I couldn't see what they were doing in the back so I held the camera in my hand and stuck it over the seat. That is what I saw ahahahah. So cute.

Aunt Alayna LOVES Brynne!

I had to give Aunt Alayna (who is 18 months old) her own little post recognition. She loved baby Brynne and pointed at her and played with her whenever she got the chance. Here are some pictures to prove her love....:-)

We love this time of year!

Thanksgiving and Christmas are so special!!!! I love celebrating with friends and family and following traditions that we've made! This year Jason and I sat down and planned out some traditions that we want to start now that we have a child. I'm thankful that I have the holiday break that I have from work so that I have time to enjoy the season and relax a bit! Anyways, I'm a bit behind on my blogging, and I have a trillion pictures to post! We had a great Thanksgiving with Jason's family. Brynne however did decide to have an exposion in her diaper at the dinner table and had evidence coming up her back! Ahahaha, way to ruin the meal!
Here are some of Brynne's first Thanksgiving pics:

3 Months Old!

Hey Everyone! I'm three months old today!!!!

My eye has been yucky the past few days!

Mommy finally got me to smile while taking a picture and then didn't have the camera centered! Awe man!

Me again...

Getting so big!!!!

Where has the time gone?! Our little girl is 3 months old today!!! That's 1/4 of a year! If the next 9 months go as fast as these first 3, I'm going to cry! She can't grow up!!!! ahahah Today we are putting up Christmas decorations....and as we predicted, Brynne loves the Christmas lights! We are so excited to start some family traditions with our baby...ya know, the usual....put up decorations together, watch the same Christmas movies, make and decorate cookies together, etc. Yay!!!! It doesn't feel like Christmas yet, but we didn't want to wait much longer to decorate, otherwise with our traveling over the holidays we're not home long enough to enjoy it!
Alright, well I'm going to go in the other room now and enjoy the sounds of "White Christmas" playing on the t.v. and the smell of our cinnamon candle burning in the kitchen!

Thankful...

I am thankful for my heavenly father and his never ending love, mercy, grace, faithfulness, and blessings!
I am thankful for the most precious baby girl whose smile melts my heart and who has shown me my purpose in life.
I am thankful for my husband who loves to joke with me and loves me enough to help do the dishes!
I am thankful for my stinky dogs who love me no matter what I do or say.
I am thankful for family and friends who take time out of their day to listen to my worries, complaints, and crazy nonsense stories of life.

When I sat down to write a post tonight, I was wondering what I should blog about. Not many updates here....and when I asked Brynne, she didn't have an answer, however she did laugh at me and smile. That reminded me how blessed I am....bringing about this "Thankful" blog.

THANK YOU Lord for life, no matter how hard some days may be!
