Well here are a couple new pics of Bryn. She loves "tummy time" and that is a playmat with different toys on it, obviously she found herself in the mirror :)
The Daisy one was just a fun one. I have Lots of tulips and Big Daisies all around the house, and I'm wondering if this is contributing to my terrible allergies..eh, oh well.

Well I had to post something, because I cant have those maxi pads as my first post anymore. Creeps me out!

Soo what's new with us?

I made $11.50 from selling 3 coupons on ebay today(yes, ppl actually buy coupons...) I've made $115 since April 1st on ebay. I'm obsessed.
I went a bit too long in the tanning bed the last 3 days...oops, now I feel sick
This sounds lame, but, I am so bad with not drinking enough water.After having a really
lousy skin week, I told Dan to nag me to drown myself in many ounces of water per day, and
it feels so good. Now I'm just extra fat from water...ha.

Brynlee is doing great. Still growing like a little weed. The tub full of clothes she's outgrown is nearly full.
She is stronger everyday and can do a push up and look around while in her crib finally. She still isn't too sure of other people's homes yet..( I've heard it's the age, and it's a phase )

Dan is anxious for his new job, like REALLY, cant sleep, must get out and walk around anxious. He's ready for that big adrenaline rush. They dont call it "Harbor-zoo" for nothin...
I bought him tickets to see Ben Folds this Sunday, one of his favorite artists ever, as an "I'm trying not to feel guilty for going to Vegas with the girls" Gift. :)hehe

Other than that, just waiting for Vegas, waiting for Dan's job to start so we can get serious about moving into our own place.

Seriously??

Not even kidding, these are cloth maxi pads that a person makes and sells on etsy...there are no words.

Simply erase it from your blog..

I just couldnt resist

Ok so we have a very ticklish baby. I discovered it tonight.
She also discovered she can giggle for long periods at a time, but
you can tell she's new at the laughing thing, and she gets
tired fast :)

Bored? Wanna help people?

Speed test

I am slower than I used to be. The above test is with ONE wrong word. I have yet to do it without any errors. This is my new challenge!

I should know better, that when there is a high in the week, there will be a low. Satan tries to attack. he tried to attack me in a big way today and i'm trying to shake it off. he is trying to rob me of my joy in several ways. *uhg* I have such a headache. Thank you Steph for your ears today.

One thing was, today was a very hard milestone for me. Brynlee is the exact age that my brother was when he passed away of SIDS. It's been heavy on my mind all week. I get it now. Because I'm a parent, and even though she's only 3 months old, it feels like forever that she has been with us. I now understand my parents. I get it.

I must now focus on good things.
On the upside of things, Dan starts his job the first week of May. No we will not be moving to Seattle, we are still looking to buy in downtown Puyallup! He also keeps his job at St. Francis as a Per Diem Charge Nurse, so he can keep the great relationships he has formed there and pick up any shifts he wants. So cool!

Brynlee giggled for Dan today, that was thrilling!! Of course, it was only once.

It is supposed to be a sunny weekend. I live for sunny days. I cannot wait til Vegas, girls :)

HE GOT THE JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hooooolllllyyyyy Crrrapppp!!!!!!!!

Dan got the ER job at Harborview!!! Freakin HARBORVIEW!
He's totally beside himself, as this was in our "5 year plan" that we made up in
January, and here we are. This is his *dream* job. He is sitting here shaking.
There are SO many benefits to him working up there. He'll keep his same shift
of 3 days a week, 12 hour shifts at night.

The Lord is so good. I am so proud of my man.

Really mix of emotions this week..

#1. ..My Jetta decided that it was going to stop driving, and lock up WHILE i'm going down a hill. Fun. Not really. It's one of my worst nightmares. Luckily, Bryn wasn't with me, I stayed calm, and was not on the freeway. It runs totally normal for Dan, just not for me. Uhg.

#2. Dan's grandpa is in the hospital with what they now think is a stroke. *remember, he just lost his other grandpa last fall* He's not getting worse, but not getting better. We are waiting for MRI results to come back. ( he's in Minnesota, and is still farming at the age of 79)

#3. A friend is not making the best decisions and I'm disappointed and scared

#4. One of my great uncles died ( mom's side ) after a long battle with cancer.

Good things:

I have enjoyed getting to know new girlfriends and hanging out, and getting closer to other friends. I'm really thankful. I have always had more guy friends than girls, and it's refreshing to have all these new people in my life, that are also mommas.
My girlfriend had her baby on friday, that is fun too!
We are hoping for a new change in our lives is coming up soon, I'll post about that later this week hopefully...
I'm also thankful that my little Brynlee is 3 months old and healthy...and still sleeping amazingly.
Suz and I went and surprised my Mom, Sayle, and her friends at the Ocean on Tuesday morning and we hung out in the RV on a Beautiful sunny day right on the beach. It was great times.
That is all for now!
