Updates


So it's obviously been a looong time since I blogged. So much has happened since November I wont even try to update. Seriously it's been a rollercoaster. So lets focus on the things that make me happy. Here we go.

Brynlee: She's so funny. She finally has a good sense of humor. She loves to climb, sings/hums to herself, play with her Monkey Milo, She knows alot of words when we say them like "outside,bath,diaper,upstairs,Penny the cat, food, drink, milk, Nigh Nigh,hot,book" are just a few. She's 13 months, 22 lbs and 31 inches long. She's onto Whole milk, ditchin the bottles. She's getting 4 molars in right now. She can tell me when she's got a poopy diaper ( we've made a "yucky sound" every since she was brand new and she's caught on.) She LOVES swings and slides. Dan and I have taken her to a couple different malls/playgrounds and it's so fun to watch. When she sees another "little person" she goes and either beeps their nose, or tries to kiss/hug them. We went to a storytime group today at the library and she just wanted to go up to the other kids. She even kissed a stranger ( lil boy 18 months ) at Subway. Tsk Tsk.
But overall, she is a fantastic kiddo, couldnt ask for a better daughter, really.

Dan's car died 2 months ago, so we just bought a Ford Expedition and I'm in love with it, great SUV. I'm focusing on things that bring me joy so I'm back to decorating and finishing up little projects around the house. We were able to lock in at 5% in this crazy economy so we feel blessed right now. I'm still thinking of going back to school to be a doula. Just dont know when yet! But I truly know it's what I want to do. I WANT to be in delivery rooms. I know God is calling me to do it.I'm also at the gym all the time now. I have a good trainer too. I've lost a pound a week so far..
Dan is doin great at work, of course. So great, that they gave him an intern to work under him. We are headed to Minnesota in April to visit fam.

We cannot wait til Spring/Summer. Lots of fun projects on the house to start and just cant wait to be outside and see green!
