December

Well its a new year and so I guess I should post some new pictures. Christmas was good, we had a good time with family and friends. I'll get straight to the point and post some pictures, cause thats all people want to see anyways. Oh but there is one other thing, I am posting a video of Brynlee dancing to Sugarland, "stuck like glue" She loves that song. :)

Brynlee is 1!

Brynlee turned 1 on November 12th! I can't believe its been a whole year! She is getting so big and has the cutest personality, I just love her. So along with milestones comes Doctors appointments. We went to the doctors office yesterday for her 1 year appointment. She is a light weight, weighing in at 16lbs 14oz. She was 16lbs 4oz at 9 months, so needless to say she didn't gain much weight. But she grew in length a couple inches. She is below the 2% in weight and in the 60% for length. So the doctor says she is tall and skinny, and thats not too bad, he says he isn't worried to much about her weight right now, but to just keep trying high calorie foods. When I find something she likes I overload her on it! I just love watching her little mind work, she is so curious about things, and is so bound and determined to figure things out for herself. Examples of why I can't get enough of her... -Taking the lid off a water bottle and working at putting it back on...for a baby with those small hands to get it on just right takes time. -Taking my wallet out of my purse and pulling every thing out of it. -I take her to work with me and she is on this kick where she goes and opens all the paper drawers to the printer, so when we want to print we can't cause they are all open. We decided we would tape the drawers closed so she can't open them... She sat there for minutes apon minutes working at pulling the tape off. Her little fingers just picking at the tape. -Our little sweetheart has never taken a bottle, a binkie, she doesn't like cows milk, she doesn't like juice... the list goes on. She only likes the veggie baby foods, not fruit ones, and she will only drink water out of her sippy cup. Which is great because water doesn't cost money.. -She loves to look at pictures on my camera with me. She giggles at home videos of herself. -She has been walking for a month now, so now she tries running everywhere. -She has the prettiest blue eyes I have ever seen. -She doesn't sleep through the night. She wakes up at 1:30am and 3:30am and then wakes up for the morning at 6:30am and don't try and make her go back to sleep, it makes her mad. But once I get out of bed with her she is so much fun to play with in the morning. That is her happiest time of the day! -She has the best smile in the world. (espcially now that her 2 bottom teeth are in) -She has a temper just like her dad -She likes to dance, and she has moves like her mom... :) Brynlee is such a sweetheart I am so happy she is part of our family! Here are some recent pictures of our 1 year old little angel!

Pumpkin Patch

We took Brynlee to her first Pumpkin Patch yesterday. She is still to young to really enjoy it, we mostly just took pictures and walked around with her. But I think in the years to come she will really love the tradition of going to pick our pumpkins for the fall.

This is Brynlee riding the horse at Matts parents house. I know its not really funny because she gets hurt in it... but at the same time it was kinda funny! I don't know maybe she will be a little cowgirl...she will have to toughen up if thats the case!

Heber Valley Camp Slide Show!

Brynlee loves the sand!

Brynlee loves the sand!!! She also loves her Cousin Cache! She couldn't stop giving him open mouth kisses.

New pictures

We went up to the Heber Valley Camp sites this last weekend with my dads family. It was so much fun. We did the Challenge Course. As you can see in these pictures, you had to climb up this log that was hanging, so it swayed a little while you climbed up it. Then you had to walk across a wire with only the help of a rope to hold on to as well. And then once you got to the end you ziplined down to the bottom. It was so fun!!!! We had a blast.
You will also see pictures of Brynlee playing in the sand! We found out this weekend that she loves the SAND!!!! We couldn't get her out of it!!!

Funniest home video

New Camera

So I got a new camera a few weeks ago, and I have been playing with it and having alot of fun. The other day I was outside with Boston and Brynlee and I decided to snap a few shots, they play so well together, Boston kept bringing his tennis ball over to her and dropping it in front of her, she would grab it and hold it for a minute and then lay it back down, I would throw it for him and then he would bring it back to do it all over again! I might put a few others pictures of other things so enjoy them and we are doing alot of fun things this summer so hopefully I'll have even more to put on here!

We went down to New Mexico this weekend to buy a truck from Perry my brother inlaw, and while we were down there Brynlee had a great time with her cousins! Oh and she tasted her first lemon... it was so funny because she would suck on it for along time like 10 seconds and then we would pull it away from her and thats when she would make the sour face, it was so cute! I love that little girl!

While down there we went rock climbing in Perrys Land Cruiser, it was so fun and so scary, we went up some steep stuff, I swear Matt and I were looking straight up at the back of their seats, I thought we would flip so many times, but Perry was a good driver! It was a blast! Thanks for taking us Perry!

Camping Trip

We went on our first camping trip this year. This was Brynlee's 1st camping trip! She absolutely loved it! We wentup Spanish Fork Canyon! We took our new tent trailer and Lauri and Trevor came with us and Drew and Ali and their little boys came, we all had a really good time! We rode horses and four wheelers and I even got to go shoot the guns! I tried really hard to hit the soda cans, but missed everytime! I guess I'm not a very good aim! We were nervous about the weather but it turned out to be a really good weekend, perfect camping weather! My parents came up and visited each night, it was fun to have them there. I have some really good pictures of the trip, so enjoy!

Brynlee is getting so big!

Boston Loves Brynlee

I love to eat!!!

Great Grandma Curtis's 90th Birthday Party!

Brynlee has grown and developed more skills over the past week! She is getting so big too fast! She sits up on her own, she has definitly found her voice, she loves to jabber jabber jabber. She loves Rice Cereal, and we gave her Sweet Peas last night, our first attempt at baby food... and she loved them!!! Check that veggie off the list! She likes that one! Now we will have to try the others! Here are a few cute pictures of our little sweetheart!
