Oh my goodness!!! I cannot believe I have a 2 year old!! These past 2 years have completely flown by and we have seriously enjoyed every second of being brynlees parents.. You are such an amazing girl! You made becoming parents for the first time such an amazing easy experience we couldn't wait to make you an older sister! Which you are the BEST big sister EVER, bryton is so extremely lucky!!
Your so smart and so full of sass it makes every minute spent with you so much fun ! You say and do the funniest things we don't know where you come up with half the stuff you say..
-You have gotten a litter pickier with food, you use to eat pretty much whatever and would chow it down, now you are a little hesitant with some foods. haha. Your OBSESSED with turkey lunchmeat.. You always ask for turkey to eat in your room at your table..
-You drink out of a big girl cup very good and you use one at almost every lunch and dinner time, but when your walking around etc your still using a sippy cup.
- Your in size 4 diapers, next week we're going to play with the idea of potty training, you have been using the big potty since you were about 18 months on and off but nothing consectuive, just introduced you to it.. We'll see how it goes.. In no hurry to rush you though...
- You are the best little sleeper ever.. You always have been and it's been the BEST thing ever!! you usually go down at about 9:30 - 10:00 and sleep anywher from 11-13 hrs straight.. You got your very own tv from santa this year and you LOVE watching cartoons in your big girl bed before night time.. You have one nap a day and it's usually around 1:30 and you nap for 2 -3 hrs.
- Your vocabulary is out of this world and your getting better at your colors and shapes.. You LoVe LoVe toys and you definatly have WAY to many after christmas and your birthday, so you keep yourself occupied in your room with your door shut for quite some time.. it's real nice =)
- Your VeRY sassy and sometimes a little bossy.. We've definatly been working on that,cause you can get a little viscous at daycare.. your favorite saying is " wellllll i had it FIRST".. Oh man oh man that girl!!
- Your obsessed with minnie mouse, and have pretty much every toy that involves her.. I can't wait to take you back to disneyland.. you loved it at 9 months i can only imagine how much you will love it this year.. EEEKKKKK.
- Your probably the BEST big sister known to man kind... Everyone thought it would be hard have two babies so close in age, but honestly you have been so much help for mommy, and haven't made this a hard process at all... You take such good care of bryton , you talk to her and tell her not to cry, you rock her while she's in her baby seat, you rub her head when she is crying , and you give her known stop kisses..
-You love to play dress up.. Your favorite is probably your princess shoes and crowns, oh and your sunglasses.. haha so much personality in such a little thing..
- at your 2 year check up you weighed 28.8 which is the 75% and your 35 inches tall which is the 90% and your head was 19.5 which is the 90% .. I love how big your getting and the dr said your skills and talking are beyond a 2 year old :)
We love you princess magoo and couldn't be more proud of you!!!!

She's here!!!
Bryton Vanessa was born on January 8th at 6:24 p.m. Weighing in at 7 lbs 9 oz. 19.5 inches long..
I was scheduled to be induced on the 8th and let me just tell you how weird it was knowing when you were going to have your baby.. Bradon and I had a relaxing day Monday and made sure everything was packed and ready to go for Tuesday.. We loved on bryn and got her so excited knowing her sissy would be here the next day. The hospital called and said that we would get a phone call between 5 and 10 am the next morning.. I figured I wouldn't sleep at all that night being so excited, but we both actually slept very good.. I woke up right at 5 and kinda tossed and turned till 7:45 when bryn woke up.. She came and got in bed with us and we all cuddled , then my phone rang literally 5 minutes after bryn woke up, it was the hospital telling me to come in... We were all smiles and couldn't believe we were heading to have our little bryton.. We packed up the cars and headed to grandma Kim's to drop off the dogs and bryn.. We got to the hospital at 9 am and headed back to our delivery room.. Lucky number 11 was our room.. It made me real happy :)) the nurse came in and started my iv and that was literally the worst part of my whole labor and delivery, I hate needles and I got so light headed and dizzy . After 5 minutes I was feeling better thank gosh... After that she checked my cervix to see what I was starting at, I was 3 cm and 70% effaced.. At 10 am they came in and started me on pitocin , they asked if I wanted the epidural right away but I told them I would hold off for as long as I could.. My mom was up there and then my dad and grandparents got there about an hour later.. My contractions were definitely getting stronger and more frequent, I was just focused on breathing through them and was doing ok, the nurse came in at 12 and said the anestiolgist had back to back c sections from 1-4 so it would be hit and miss if I didn't do it soon, the thought of my contractions getting way worse and him not being able to come made me nervous, so we said he could come and out one in.. My dr came In and broke my water, and that was defiantly uncomfortable... I had to pee before they did the Epi so I got up and water went everywhere, haha I was like ugh I'm peeing.. The anestiolgist came back up at about 1 and finally did the Epi.. Contractions were defiantly getting strong so I'm glad I had him come do it.. They checked me and I was at a 5.5 And pretty much fully thinned.. Once the Epi was In I was all smiles again and just tried to relex these last hrs of having my sweet girl in my belly.. Bradons parents showed up and we were all just waiting on little monkey.. They came In at about 5 and checked me and I was an 8.. The nurse said she was going to start setting up cause I'd be ready to push real soon.. Bradon went all smiles and it melted my heart seeing him so excited to meet his new baby girl.. My dr came in and said bry was sunny side up just like her sis was and we needing to lay on my tummy for a little.. We had to do the internal heart monitor again since i was on my tummy.. I went from and 8-10 real quick but bry wasn't all The way turned yet, my dr said it was ok and she could get her turned while I was pushing.. So here was the moment, Bradon asked me are you ready haha I guess I had to be.. My mom and Bradon were in the room with me and each held a leg , 4 pushes later little bry was here.. It was so quick.. Bradon cut her umbilical cord and then they put her on my chest.. I bawled.. So much emotions going on right at that moment.. This precious little baby that you grew in your stomach for 9 months just arrived and so healthy and b.eautiful.. She was so perfect and I saw so much of Brynlee in her it made it even sweeter.. Brynlee came in right after to meet her sissy and that made me bawl even more.. Having my two sweet girls right there in my arms was the most amazing thing ever.. I will never forget those feelings I had right then and defiantly cherish them.. Everyone from my family and Bradons was there so it was defiantly wild.. The nurse on the recovery floor was not the sweetest lady i've ever met, and she came in and pretty much went off about having vistors in the room and was acting like i was a complete retard, i finally snapped back at her and she kinda shut up... Ughh seriously i just had a baby and people are excited for us, calm down crazy pants... So from start to finish i was in labor for 8 1/2 hrs.. That was amazing compared to my 23 hrs with brynlee.. I will definatly schedule for induction with our next ( if we do decided on one more ). It went real smoothly and faster then going into labor myself.. I am recovering great and love nothing more then having two baby girls.. We were out shopping the next day i got home.. We luckly only had to spend 22 hrs in the hospital, that was SUPER nice..
Bryton had 2 nights where she would be sound asleep then wake up and scream bloody murder for like a minute then fall right back asleep, she was farting a ton during this too, so we went and bought some gripe water and gas drops and she slept like a champ last night.. 5 hrs straight woke up to eat then slept for another 5 and then we woke her up for the day.. Hopefully that's all that was making her cry and we're in for the good night sleeps.. Brynlee has done amazing with adapting to her baby sister, she loves her sooo much and it seriously melts my heart.. She hasn't lost her amazing naps for bed times.. Hopefully that all stays the same.. I am TrYiNg to breast feed, and it's not going so lovely.. I just started getting some milk in and if i'm lucky i get an ounce and a half a DAY.. so not even a full bottle to give her yet.. I told bradon i would keep trying for 2 weeks, and if i don't have my milk fully in by then i was done.. So we will see what happens.. With bryn i was all for formula, something about breast feeding just isn't for me.. But when she had to be on the most expensive formula ever it got a little pricey, so i was gonna try harder this time around...
Bryton and Brynlee are the light of our lives and i can't believe that i have two beautiful baby girls! I was talking to bradon last night and we we're just saying how crazy everything works out.. At 24 we have 2 babies a beautiful house, nice cars,wonderful secure jobs,and bradon pursuing his career.. We are pretty proud of ourselves and can't wait to watch what the future brings us.. We definatly have some new things in store for us.. But couldn't be happier..
Hopefully this post isn't two jibberish, i typed it all on my ipad , which typing this much is no bueno on it..

39 wks.... Dun dun dun
Here I am 39 wks pregnant, feeling like she will NEVER come out !!! Thank goodness this is my second baby and my dr will induce me TOMORROW!!! Wahoo!! I really think she is just way to comfy in my belly and is in no hurry to come into this crazy world.. But she has no choice now :) mean mommy :) at my last appt I was almost 2.5 cm dilated and 60 effaced , so I'm farther along then I was when I went into labor with bryn.. I'm definitely scared to be induced but I pretty much had all the same things done with bryn except I went into labor by myself.. My dr said I can get the Epi as soon as I want to hopefully that goes as planned :) I'm soooo ready for this little princess and cannot believe we've made it... As much as I seriously LOVE being pregnant these last 5 wks kill me in the anxious department.. I'm the most impatient person ever!! I have been extra extra emotional knowing bryn isn't going to be my only baby anymore. Every time she cries I hold her and baby her more and just love on her a little more these last days.. She is soooo excited to meet her sissy as she calls her and literally talks about her everyday.. I love it!!! Well here's my last survey for bry brys pregnancy.. Bitter sweet, but here's to a couple more years of getting in shape and loving my two girls then we'll try for one more :))
