Spring...Finally!

This past weekend was beautiful in northern Indiana. We spent most of the weekend outside and Brynlee got to enjoy the wind blowing through her (five strands of) hair :) I would stand with her in front of the sliding door to the patio and she would gasp and grin as the wind made her catch her breath. We were finally able to bust out the spring clothing colors for Brynlee too. If only we all could pull off plaid pants as well as my precious baby girl!

Brandon and I took Brynlee out for some pictures by our pear tree after church on Sunday, since it is in full bloom. It's amazing they turned out so well since the blossoms on that tree stunk so bad that we were trying to hurry the photo op up just to get away from them :)



And finally, video evidence from this weekend that Brynlee does indeed know how to move it. The girl was on a "roll!"

Seven Months of Updating in One Post

Well, things have definitely changed around our household since the last update. On January 9 at 9:54 pm, Brandon and I welcomed our adorable baby girl, Brynlee Paige, to the world. The last three months have been exhausting, but unbelievably fun all at the same time. I haven't exactly had the time to blog since Brynlee's arrival, but I feel like I need to get back to it so that I can have a record of her milestones. Milestones thus far are sleeping through the night, which she started doing at about 6 weeks old. And her newest baby feat that she accomplished was rolling from her belly to her back last week. She's been stubborn and not really wanting to do it again since, but at least we know she's capable and we can check that off of her "baby to-do list." Here are some pictures of our princess over the last few months. Here's to hoping it won't be seven months until I blog again :)

P.S. After writing this post, I realize now why I stopped blogging. It has taken me over an hour to upload pics, modify fonts, etc. Anyone else have this problem? I couldn't even use Safari to write my post as it wouldn't upload photos. And Blogger makes it look like posting should be soooo easy.....ugh!
