I'm here..

We are back from out vacation :) My laptop is fried and in the shop so i haven't been on lately. I had 27 emails when I checked today at my moms. Geez.
Anyways we had a good time. Almost didn't make it up there due to technical problems but we made it to Leavenworth. Brynlee LOVED the pool...except she wanted to drink it. Suz, Jay, Dan, George and I floated down the Wenatchee river on tubes, that was fun and relaxing. I'll post pics later of the trip. Now I am trying to keep Bryn and I cool. We literally sat in the cold bathtub together last night for 1/2 hour trying to keep cool. She's got a yeast infection poor thing.
Next week Dan's good friend, Rose, is comin out from Minnesota to stay with us so I'm madly trying to get the house in order and finish the guest room. I dont even have a mattress for the room yet! haha, that'll come this week.
I updated my other blog www.youpaidmorethanme.blogspot.com
I'm trying to be better at keeping it up!

More to come!

so sad!

The East Pierce Fire Chief that passed away in the California fire, was the dad
of an very good friend of mine from school, Katie Packer. Keep them in your thoughts and prayers!

Seaplanes and Southcenter

I surprised Dan on Monday and took him on a seattle seaplane. It was soo cool!! We flew right over Bill Gates house, which was neat, I had already seen it from a boat's perspective but now an aerial view, pretty crazy. I did this for 2 reasons, as a thank u to Dan for putting a roof over our heads and because he needed birds eye view of Seattle, now that he's up there all the time!
We had Dick's Burgers for dinner, So yum.
Then we headed to Southcenter mall, which is newly remodeled. You have to check it out, it's huge, and really nice. Go to the store H&M, it's AMAZING. It's got the Old Navy prices, but with glam and style. Even has baby, kids and men's sections.
Now we are off to Leavenworth til next week!

Brynlee is 7 months :)

( well, she is on the 4th)
These are fun things that Brynlee can do at 7 months:
1. Stands up in her crib after she wakes up
2. Can pull herself up on just about anything now
3. Crawling like a champ
4. Beginning the crawl-to sit position
5. Eats Peas, Carrots, Green Beans, Peaches, Applesauce,Bananas
6. Says dadadada
7. I swear she knows when "coldplay" comes on, she moves more
8. She copied grandpa by clapping the other day
9. 2 teeth
10. She is pretty tough, she bumps her head several times a day or will
topple over after loosing balance, and just moves on. No cries.
