9 Months

Our blue-eyed beauty! 

6 (and a half) months old

On January 19th I turned 6 months old.  Mommy & Daddy can't believe how fast I grow!  I am 15.8lbs and 28"long.

At 6 1/2 months old:

• I can roll to my tummy or my back really easy.
• I can sit by myself.
• I can get up on my arms and have started to scoot backwards a little bit.
• I eat pureed foods now! My favorite...SWEET POTATOES!!! Then Sqaush! :)  (I'm not a fan of the fruits...yet.)  I've also started eating the "puffs." (They have to be broken into smaller pieces and mommy or daddy has to feed them to me.  I haven't quite figured out how to feed myself yet.)
• I love to talk.
• I love to make noises w/ my lips and tongue.
• I love my binkie!
• I also love to suck on my thumb or fingers.
• I love to play w/ my toys!
• I no longer like to hold still while mommy & daddy change my diaper...I like to try to roll.
• I've started waving (I wave w/a closed hand and bend my wrist...it's cute!).
• I've discovered how to splash in the water and make a BIG mess when I take baths now.  :)
• I started swim lessons on my half birthday! I LOVE them!!! (I go once a week and take lessons at Aqua-Tots w/ Coach Kylie.  She's in our ward and she's so fun!)
• I've discovered a high-pitch little happy squeal in the last couple days (it's cute!).  
• I do throw little temper tantrums already.  I know what I want and cop a little attitude if I don't get what I want.  
• I love to go for walks in my stroller now.  Don't strap me in...just let me hold on to the front and take it all in!  I am very observant right now and love to see everything around me!  I love being outside!
• I love crowds...I love to watch! (We took her to the NFL Experience downtown before the Super Bowl...she loved it!)
• I'm super happy 99% of the time! I always have big smiles!
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
   

Power Nap Princess

Brynlee has now been nicknamed "The Power Nap Princess." This little girl will only nap for 15-30 minutes...then she's wide awake!  And she only takes 2 or 3 naps per day! Don't babies need more sleep than that?! Crazy little girl!

My First Halloween (Oct 2014)

Mommy found me a really cute Ladybug costume at Kid to Kid for Halloween this year.  I wore my "First Spooky Halloween" onesie during the day.  And saved my costume for that night.
I fell asleep early, but Mommy and Daddy really wanted to put me in my costume. So, they woke me up and put my Ladybug costume on me...and I wasn't too happy about it.
We handed out candy for a while.  Then we went down to a friends house in the neighborhood and hung out.
Don't I make the cutest little Ladybug?! :)
