Happy 1st Birthday!

Brylee celebrated her first birthday with a pink poodle party! She had the cutest cakes courtesy of Mrs. Rockwell. They were so delicious. She makes the BEST cakes! She had a poodle with pink & black polka-dots. Her little cake was so precious as well! Brylee really enjoyed eating her cake! Her guests were mostly family. The girl party favors were poodle purses. The boys just got a kite. She got a lot of fun presents. Her Mim & Pop gave her a Dora 4-wheeler. She got lots of beautiful clothes. She got some books,dolls, and learning toys. One of my favorite gifts came from my sister. She gave her a my first learning purse. It has a little mirror, lipstick, keys, bracelet, & money. It sings, and has a lot of interactive things. It is precious! Brylee was fixed up! This year has flown by. It is hard to believe a year ago she was born! She is such a sweet girl. She has been taking a couple of steps for a little over a month. She has really done so much better with walking just this past week. There have been a few falls, though. She gets right back up to walk again. She also wants to eat whatever we eat. She is saying a few things: Mama, Dada, Hey, Hot, and something that we think means "thank you".

Soon to Turn One!

Our sweet little girl is about to turn one. She will be one on Thursday! It seems like yesterday that we were waiting in the hospital for her arrival. Time really flies! We are having her birthday party this weekend. She is having a pink poodle party. Her invitations turned out cute, if I do say so myself!

Jump!

Brant got a trampoline for his birthday. Since then, he has been hardly able to go jump because of the cold temperatures. This past weekend was very pretty. Brant and Brylee were able to enjoy the fun. While Daddy was putting Brylee & Brant's new swingset together, we had fun playing on the trampoline!

The Flu was here!

Sorry, I haven't posted in a while. Our family was one of the many that got the flu. Brylee was tested a week ago, but did not test positive. Brant was tested this past Monday and he had it. In the meantime, Bryan was not feeling well and Brylee's conditions worsened. I was pretty sure that Bryan and Brylee both had the flu by then. I was the only one well. We all took Tamaflu, all except for Brylee. Babies can't take it. Brant became well by Thursday, but Brylee still coughed quite a bit. Bryan's mom kept her for the rest of the week. Because I took Tamaflu, I had to stop nursing Brylee. I was going to stop anyway, because she will turn one this month, but I wasn't really ready. Ready or not, I had to stop because the affects on babies are not known. She has done okay. She still wakes up in the night, but now I have to go get a bottle. Hopefully, she will soon sleep through the night.
