Brynn Leigh-

You have been born to a family who loves you and is so excited to have you!  You have two wonderful older siblings that want to protect you, be good examples for you, and love you so much!!!  You have two parents that worry about you, want to teach and guide you, and love you so much!!!

You also have grandparents, aunts & uncles, and many cousins that love you!

So thankful for the family that were able to come to the blessing, and missed the family that couldn't be there.

We are blessed to have the priesthood in our home and have family that also have the priesthood. 

We were thankful for Uncle Matt and Uncle Rees who came and participated in the blessing as well as Skipper.  We also had our home teachers- JJ Futey, Travis Barlow and our good friends Sean Holley and Jeff Brown.

We are so thankful to be a family- Forever!!!

And you are surrounded by cousins that will be good friends and great examples to you!!

You have a big sister that loves you and is someone you can aspire to be like.

More random baby pics...

I can not believe she is a month old already!!!

I love how her eyes are open now a lot more and she is looking around at everything.

She is so cute- don't know what she was watching, but it sure entertained her for awhile!

She often looks devious and like she is plotting against us.  Well, she has taken over this household and has all of us under her spell!!!!!!!!!

I convinced Brandt (somehow) that painted piggies on baby girls are a must!!  Especially before they are blessed.  Girls gotta get pretty before a big day!!!  He was dissapointed on her blessing day when she wore tights and shoes.  :)

She slept while I conspired against her!!!

I love pretty painted piggy toes!!!

Cub Scouts

Peyton earned his Bobcat rank!  We are very excited at his enthusiasm for cub scouts.

The tradition is to pin the new rank on upside down -- and it doesn't get turned right side up until the scout does a good "turn" (deed) for the day.

Peyton puts the mother's pin for Bobcat on me.  He didn't even stab me once.

They did a bottle rocket launch after the Pack Meeting.

Brandt helped out with the rocket launch using his birthday present (the rocket launcher seen here).

Peyton had a great night with his really cool rocket!!!

3 weeks

Miss Megan and baby

As a family we went up to Akron to see family and friends.  I was so excited to see my niece Megan.  

Through out my pregnancy Megan would imitate me and talk about the baby in her tummy.  She loved feeling the baby move and got excited when she felt the baby have hiccups.  She then talked about the baby in her tummy having hiccups.  As soon as Laura told her the baby was out of my tummy she got excited and pulled her babies out playing with them.

She was so excited to see and hold the baby.  She seemed bigger and more grown up to me as she held Brynn Leigh.  She was wonderful with her and loved holding her- I was afraid I would not get her back! :)

The boys are great friends and love spending time together!!!  I love these kiddos!!!

My Good Friend

Shauna and I have been good friends for a long time.  We even have the same birthday.  I love her and her family.  When I went and saw her and told her I was pregnant, she told me she was expecting too.  Actually she was expecting two!!!  We then found out I was having a girl and she was having two girls!!!

May 11th

(I think I was 23 weeks and Shauna was 25)

 August 11th 

(I think I was 35 weeks and Shauna was 37)

At another time we were hanging out together talking about babies I asked her what names she was thinking of and we realized, Great minds think a like!!!
