7 MoNtHs....

Bry Bry is now a whopping 7 months old, which means she's more then half way to being ONE YEARS OLD!!! =((
She is at the funnest stage right now.. All she does is smile and put things in her mouth. She is trying so hard to become mobile.. Well i should say crawling, she rolls EVERYWHERE.. We will put her on the ground in the front room and we'll come back in within minutes and she's in the complete opposite corner we left her in. We got ANOTHER dang ear infection.. This one was very mild the dr said.. Thank goodness..

-At 7 months you're weight is 16.6 lbs
-You are eating 3 meals of baby food a day and eating 6 oz every 4-5 hrs. You love to sit with mom while i eat and try all my foods. You LOVE the baby waffle wheels. We're gonna try some baby puffs and melts here soon..
-Your still rocking size 2 diapers.. i think you'll be in them for alittle longer. they still got some room =)
- Your in 6-9 month clothing.. i had to get rid of all your 3-6 months.. =((
- You have the smallest little feet just like your sissy did.. neither of you got use of all the little baby sandals..
- You have the SWEETEST gummy smile known to man kind.. Seriously though, those dimples!!
- You're a huge mama's girl! which i love , cause bryn was a daddys girl.. You have a little bit of stranger danger, and if your unsure of that person the little lip automatically comes out.. so dang cute!!
- Your hair is SOOO dark, like almost black.. And your lashes are so dark.. Your definatly a beauty!!
- No teeth yet.. I'm not looking forward to that AT ALL
 - SLEEEPPPPP we have finally mastered sleep! oh and how it makes mommy soooo happy.. At your 6 month check up dr lei said we needed to let you cry it out for atleast 3 days.. First night really wasn't that bad, you woke up around 1 a.m and cried for like 45 minutes or so, only sucky part was you did wake up your sister.. Second night same thing but you only cried for like 30 minutes and didn't wake up sister this night.. and the 3rd night you slept 11 hrs STRAIGHT, and from that night on you have slept 10-12 hrs all night long in your crib!! =))
- Naps are all over the place. We really have no schedule for them. which needs to change. For the most part you take like a 30-45 minute nap about an hr to and hr and a half after you wake up in the morning, then you take a real big one around 2, and that's usually about 2 hrs.. buttt you love to nap in your swing, not your bed.. not good little lady, not good =))
- Brynlee is still your bestest friend.. the love you two have is probably the sweetest thing i've ever seen!


We sure love you little pumpkin butt and cannot wait for all the fun holidays to celebrate with you for your first time!

LiTtLe MiSs BrYnLeE Jo Jo

2 1/2 years old.. Holy cow where has the time gone..My beautiful baby girl is growing up right before my eyes, and as hard as it is to see you getting more and more independant i love everything about this stage.. You are my BEST friend Bryn J.. I love you more then you could EVER imagine and you light up mommy and daddys life with constant smiles and laughs!! Your little sense of humor, to your HUGE heart.. I see ALOT of mommy in you, and it might scare me a little =)) haha. Your 2 1/2 going on 16 for sure.. You talk like your a teenager and have the sass of a teenager as well! You are so unbelieably smart, everyone that talks to you comments on how good you talk and always asks how old you are, You come back with your
 " i'm 2/12 years old"  =)

We had your 2.5 year check up with Dr Lei, and you were soooo excited.. I love that you love dr visits (as long as shots aren't involved) we owe that to doc mc stuffins =)
You weighed in at a whopping 36 lbs... 97th percentile.. and you are 36 inches tall as well..Dr. lei said since your height has slowed down we need to watch your sugar intake so you don't balloon in weight and then be short.. He said no more juice ( your obsessed with V8 juice) so crystal light it is.. You've got your mommys body type for sure.. Thank goodness your an active girl!

Your still in diapers.. You know how to potty in the big girl toilet but have NNOOO desire to loose your diapers.. I think your just comfortable and don't wanna loose that yet.. Dr lei said to not rush it at alll and just keep coming back and trying again.. One day it will just happen.. Mommy is in NOOOO hurry .. Unless it does just happen over night. hahah

You still are the most AMAZING sleeper ever!! you go down around 10 pm and wake up anywhere from 8-9 a.m. You take a nap usually around 2:30 and sleep for 2-3 hours. You are in a big girl bed and have been since you turned 2 ish. Never had one problem with the transition, and you still to this day stay in bed when you wake up and wait for mom or dad to come say it's ok to get out.. ANGEL GIRL!!

You are a little fish and have no fear of water.. It scares mommy a little when we're at lakes or pools, hence why we sold our pool.. We'll stick with sprinklers in our back yard =))

You are a pretty good eater.. Some times you'll just take a couple of bites and say your full and other times you'll have seconds or even thirds.. I'm one of those moms if you don't eat it or don't want it i'm not going to force it upon you to eat it.. I don't like alot of veggies or fruit and i sure in the heck don't like when people force me to eat them! And like our Dr says, she'll eat when she's hungry.. firm believer in that!!


You can usually count to 10, sometimes you miss a couple numbers =)) you know all your colors and shapes.

You are OBSESSED with your baby sis.. She is your pride.. I am so extremely thankful that Bryton decided she needed to be in our family and i got pregnant when i did =) haha.. I love how close in age you are and how close in everything your going to be. You cannot wait till she can play with you. You try everyday to get her to play dollys with you.. But she just doesn't get it yet =) dang her =)) If i was crazy i would have another little munchkin 2 years apart again. but we'll just say bryton's sleeping habits while she was a newborn scared me alittle for another baby =)

You are soooo independant! you like to dress yourself, put your own shoes on, brush your own teeth, do your own hair.. You play WONDERFUL by your self.. You will go into your room shut your door and just play for hours.. It is so nice!!

You really have the biggest heart ever! It makes me so proud to know your so carring and loving already! If someone tells you that there sad or crys you just love on them and tell them not to cry your right there .. When i tell you i'm sad cause your leaving to go to daycare you always hug me and say mommy don't worry i'll be home later to play with you! MELT MY HEART!! =))

You are rocking anywhere from size 3-5T in clothing.. size 2 has been gonzo for a LLOOONNNGG time! haha.. most bottoms your a 3T but shirts you are usually a 4-5T. you have a LONG torso just like momma! and a juice belly =) haha

You are wearing a size 9 shoe and size 8 in sandals..

You're the best helper. If we tell you to go do something you will go and do it. It's very nice!

You are at the funniest age brynlee, i am loving every second of it and i make you promise every single day that you will always love me as much as you do right now and we'll always be bestest friends!  There is nothing better then having my little girls..

I LOVE YOU BRYNLEE JO MORE THEN THE SUN AND THE STARS IN THE SKY, FOREVER AND ALWAYS MY BABY YOU'LL BE!! MUAH MUAH MUAH!!!!

We don't have your 6 month appt till the end of the month cause we are going with bryn for her 2 1/2 check up.. What the heck.. My babies are too big,. Bry had her first dang ear infection so we got a dr check up then..

-At 6 months you are weighing 15.7 lbs.. You officially weigh more then bryn did at this age,, you've defiantly chunked up. And I love your rolly Polly legs :)

-You are eating 5-6 oz every 3 hours and eating baby food 1-2 times a day. You love food so much. You've had a little bit of noodles,baby crackers and pasta sauces :)

- you're still rocking size 2 diapers. And wearing 6-9 month clothing.

- you sit like a champ

- you roll all over the place. Defiantly not safe on high services anymore :)

- I don't know if you're getting ready for some teeth or what but you are a drooling hand eating machine.

We sure love you little pumpkin butt. I'm pretty much addicted to your sweet face...

A WhOle LoT Of CaTChInG Up.

I'm sooo behind on blogging it isn't even funny.. Life is super super busy right now, Mandatory OT at work, fun summer activies and other life chores, at the end of the day i just wanna sit and do nothing.. =)

So i'm going to try and squeeze some fun memorable things all into this one post =) so it will be everywhere..=))

We'll start with fathers day..
How lucky are my little girls to be able to call the most amazing man ever DadDy.. For fathers day Bradon wanted to go to some Comedy show starring JoEy CoCo DiAz... I laughed but said whatever you want dear =) in the end the guy was hilarious but i felt so dirty after the show. haha Dirty jokes the whole time.. We went to olive garden for dinner then the show while my amazing parents watched the girls.. It was such a fun night and i loved every second of being just bradon and I. On actual fathers day the girls gave bradon some new work out shoes that he wanted.We went over to shirley and brandon's and had breakfast with my dad and all the siblings, except tyler had to work. We went over to bradon's parents later that night to celebrate fathers day with his family as well. It was a great day and i hope bradon always knows how much he is loved.

We went to lagoon for my dads work party. It was PERFECT weather and the kids had a blast. it makes me so excited for disneyland this year. Ry Ry had her first churro.. =) she loved it. haah

We have had lots of swimming trips at aunt ambers swimming pool. We lucked out with her moving there =) Bryn is a little fish and has no fear of the water, kinda makes mommy nervous.. So we had to invest in a life jacket even at the pool!

We've had lots of fun in our backyard with bryn's new toys. Her favorite thing is to put the sprinklers under the tramp and jump. We have done lots of smore nights.. Hence the weight gain =).

We "pAiNTeD" our countertops. haha what an adventure that was..



















For memorial day bradon and i bought some new couches,an excersice bike, and some new rims and tires for the jeep.. I love them all. =)

We got to go to Kd's school carnival and have lots of fun on all of the blowup toys.Brynlee loves carnivals, if you mention one she will be sure to tell you that you have to go buy tickets to go on the RoLLLLLERcoaster =))

We've had a couple of trips to wendover with some of our favorite people..

At the end of the month we got to welcome our sweet little Nash into the world. Talk about handsome little boy.. Gages little twin for sure!! I love those boys so much and am so thankful for my little nephews, they will be my little boys i'll never have =)) So thankful to be so close to my sisters!

Brynlee and Bryton went to there first movie. Monsters University. We went with all the cousins, for the most part Bryn was good.. Her and Krew got a little hyper every once and awhile, but for the most part sat still.. And Bryton slept the whole time =) haha

We've had alot of walks to parks.. Brynlee is obsessed with parks lately and knows where all of them are around us.





















We got to go play on "gracie" shirley and brandon's boat.. It was a perfect day to go play in the water all day.. 100+ degrees is not fun unless your in water..Bryn loved every second of it.. Jumping off the boat into the water,tubing and just playing around on the boat. So thankful again for sisters with fun things =))

I finally got my hair colored.. It grew like a weed when i was prego with bryton and i seriously hate it in the summer! Way to hot.. Well Bradon is obsessed with long hair so i promised him i would try to make it through summer and see where we're at.. Well it was time to either chop it or color, so my amazing friend ( like little sis) does amazing hair and got me in.. I love it.. It's the perfect change and great for summer.

we celebrated the 4th. Wednesday night we went to granite high with Lisa and Landon and the gillespie clan. The show was alot of fun, but holy cow it was so hot and humid. on thursday we went to the WJ parade with my family. Thanks to amber's friend Alisha they save spots for us every year. The kids love it, but i definatly think the heat got to bryn this year. Later that night we went to shirley and brandon's and had pizza and lit some fireworks.. Always a fun time all us crazy kids together..








































































Well I think i got most of it.. I love making memories with my little family and spending time with everyone. Now if summer would just hang out in the low 90's i would be happier. no more 100's... iiicckkk
