Brynn Elise - 7 Months

Brynn is 7 months old this month and is moving right along!  She is a busy lady wanting to touch, hold and eat just about everything.  Along with being curious, she is really becoming her own little person.  She loves baths and splashing in the water, she loves riding in the Bjorn and watching all the big kids play outside, she loves eating and playing with her big brother.  Mostly, she is my smiley sidekick and I can't get enough of her sweet little baby coos.  Rounding the corner to 1 year and I feel like she is on cruise control to being a toddler, but for now, I am hanging on to this little baby stuff for dear life.

Brynn Elise - 6 Months

Brynn turned 6 months old last week, I can't believe we are half a year in.  This month we started the wonderful journey of eating solids and our girl is a fan. Apples, Pears, Squash, Peas, Spinach and more, she hasn't met one she didn't like yet.  Along with eating is moving, moving, moving.  Mostly rolling and kicking trying to figure out how to move, I think crawling could be closer than we think.  She loves to grab her feet and uses them as chew toys.  She has also turned into a social butterfly, loving being outside watching all the big kids play.  She will kick her feet and wiggle her arms with excitement.  She babbles and talks to anyone, but still loves her big brother the most.  He can make her giggle like no one else, and I hope it stays that way! 

So this happened 2 days ago...

We gave Brynn some rice cereal for the first time (where is the time going) and needless to say she wasn't very excited about it.  Seemed more like torture than the adventure of something new.  I don't remember Logan making sure fowl faces, but maybe he did.  I will have to go find some comparison pics!  I still can't believe we are almost half way through her first year, before I know it, she'll be riding bikes!

Brynn Elise - 5 Months

I'm a few days late, but its because we are trying to soak every last day of summer.  As our sunny days wind down, my girl is really starting interact with everyone and everything.  She has discovered toys and how much fun they can be, she puts her toes in her mouth, rolls from back to tummy and simply adores her brother and all his crazy smothering! She is out of the swaddle this month and sleeping better than ever.  She is enjoying being entertained by all the places we go everyday, any people watching is good stuff. Our girl is a just a delight and I can't wait to see what she's up to next! 

Brynn Elise - 4 Months

I can't believe that Brynn in already 4 months old, I feel like I have been saying that too much.  I really am trying to soak it all up, but no matter what I do, every time I turn around she is doing something new. She is a busy girl putting weight on her legs, holding toys, chewing fingers, watching big brother and growing, growing, growing.  She talks, sings and giggles all the time and they are the cutest noises ever.  And because seeing the comparisons is so fun, I put up a few oldies from Logan's 4 month update.  Still looking a whole lot alike, which is cool with me!

 

  

Our 4th of July

Last year on the 4th of July, we found out that Brynn would be joining the family.  What a difference a year makes!  We had such a fun day, complete with the neighborhood bike parade, cookout and of course fireworks!  Logan got to pick a few out this year and they did not disappoint.  We let him stay up extra late to see the after dark version and I'm pretty sure he will remain a big fan of the 4th just like his mama.  Brynn hit the sack early and slept through all the crazy bangs but I'm sure next year she will be in on the action!
