Brynn Elise - 1 Month

Here I am - back to monthly updates! Brynn turned 1 month old today and it could possibly be the fastest month of my life.  She is already out of newborn clothes and diapers and onto 3 month stuff.  She is more alert these past few days and really looking around at people.  She loves to be in the baby carriers and has started putting herself on a little schedule.  She loves to cuddle and she is a lot less wiggly than her brother, but she will give it to you if you try and stretch time between meals.  It is so great having a little baby again, even though I forgot than you get absolutely nothing done and everything has to be done with 1 hand.  Logan has been great, he just loves her and is really proving to be a great helper!  I can't wait to see this little lady learn to smile - my goal is to catch it with my camera! What a great feeling to finally have her here and enjoy this short time in our lives.  

Newborn Photo Shoot

So glad that I decided to have a photographer capture this very short and special time in our life.  Love my babies.  Here are a few shots.... more to come soon!

First Bath

Someone has finally arrived....

Brynn Elise joined our family last weekend and we couldn't be more thrilled.  It was a long journey and I can't believe that we are a family of four.  So far so good, we are getting used to our new normal and trying to soak up every minute of our "last" baby! 

Valentine's Day at our House...

Valentine's morning at our house was pretty fun and pink!  It was Logan's turn at school to bring home "Ripley" the Raccoon and document some adventures with him.  So of course, we had to make pink pancakes with chocolate chips!  Logan approved and so did Ripley!  And thanks to my hubs for the beautiful flowers.... so nice to have them on my table!!!

A Snowy good time..

It's been a long time in between posts, we were surviving some ear infections, 3rd trimester woes and all the holiday goodness.  So, here we are having some snow day fun.  We don't often get to enjoy the snow for more than a few hours, so 4 whole days of snow was quite the treat!  Logan loved sledding just outside our door with all his friends, and it was so pretty to see everything cloaked in white!

Keeping traditions...

We wanted to keep our tradition of visiting a Christmas Tree Farm alive - so last weekend we went to the find the lucky tree!  We braved the freezing temps and began our search - soon we found the ONE and took her home.  Logan thought it was cool to take the tree home but even cooler that we put lights on it!  Pictures of the finished product are coming soon!
