For all those of you who keep hounding me to update my blog, here it is!
Brynlee is almost 5 months old and is getting bigger by the minute! Holy cow, everyday it seems like she starts doing something new! Her latest thing is she has started rolling over all by herself and when she is on her tummy she holds her head up super well! She also has started this new thing where instead of smiling and laughing out loud she just holds a serious face and goes "huh huh huh" and it comes out as such a fake laugh but it is fun when she does it over and over.
She has also started eating baby food, which is a good thing because she needs to gain a little weight. The Dr. says she is healthy but definitely on the small side. Currently she has eaten green beans mixed with applesauce, carrots, squash, and bananas. She is starting to get pretty good at eating, but whoever thought a little bib would get the job done was horribly wrong! We have resorted to just stripping her down and then bathing her afterwards so we don't stain all her clothes.
In the meantime I am having a complex about leaving her everyday to go to work. Part time is not so bad but I am getting burned out on commuting for an hour or more everyday just to pick her up and I hate knowing I am missing out on fun walks and playtime.
Life has been so busy in the Marchant world that it seems like we hardly have time to get much accomplished. Cody is still busy busy with school and work and I am busy keeping the baby happy, the house picked up, all other errands and working. I can't wait until life slows down and we can get more time together as a family.
Speaking of family, we were able to fly out to SC in May so Michelle could see Brynlee for the first time! We had such a blast! We got to go to Cyprus Gardens (for those of you who are unaware of what Cyprus Gardens is, it is the lake in the Notebook that he canoes around on with all the swan). We also got to play on the beach, play around downtown Charleston, go on a ghost and graveyard tour and enjoy good ol' southern BBQ! We had so much fun visiting and playing with Wyatt. Holy cow is that boy getting big though, he was nearly tripple Brynlee's size! I miss the Fullers so much already and can't wait for them to come visit us.
Thus far, all is well and we are very blessed...despite my occasional complaints.
Also, pictures coming soon...
