18 week ultrasound!

We had a doctor's appointment and ultrasound yesterday. Everything looks perfect with the little peanut! The baby was measuring about a week ahead, but that can all change at any time. So no due date changes for now.

The baby has grown so much since our last scan and we got some really good pictures of him/her. Yep, we decided not to find out the sex again this time around! GASP!! We really enjoyed that experience with Brynn and are looking forward to finding out when the little stinker is born.

Sucking on the thumb!Hand

Tummy and legs! The black dot is the stomach.

And I have been feeling little flutters for the last few weeks, but a few nights ago it was a definite kick! Yay!! Almost half way there...it seems to be flying by!

First pig tails!

Isn't that one of the cutest things ever??

Happy Valentine's Day!

11 months old!

Brynn is only a month away from her first birthday! My baby is going to be one! How is that even possible??
She has been a walking machine lately and has only been getting faster and better with her balance! Brynn does laps around the the house...from the front door to the kitchen and back again. And is cracking herself up the whole way.

In other news...did you hear?? The Saints won the Superbowl!!! We had family and some friends over for a party and had a great time celebrating with everyone! Thanks for helping to make a great memory of the Saints first Superbowl win!!!!

And in better late than never news...

Brynn is going to be a big sister!!!

I think everyone pretty much knows this by now, but I have meaning to post about it for awhile. I am currently a little over 14 weeks along (already in the 2nd trimester) and doing great! The new baby will join us in August and we are very excited!
This is the most recent ultrasound we had at 11 weeks 4 days and everything is looking right on track! The baby was moving and kicking all over the place during the scan.

I changed the name of the blog to correctly reflect our coming attraction (but the address will stay the same) and I added a new ticker on the right. We are so excited to meet this new little booger and see how Brynn is as a BIG SISTER!

These boots are made for...

WALKING!!!!

That's right, as of Friday Brynn is now strutting her stuff! See video below for the proof. (And please ignore my annoying voice!) Now the real fun begins!!!



And as a side note, little Miss likes looking at pictures of herself and watching videos of herself! She got a big goofy smile on her face as I was playing this video.

10 months old!

Brynn is 10 months old and it seems to be flying by...her first birthday will be here before we know it!!! How did that happen? I'm not sure if I'm ready for a toddler just yet!As soon as I sit Brynn down she is on the move, which makes taking pictures rather difficult. Move, move, move...but we'll take what we can get. She is cruising around all the furniture, walking with her push toy, crawling at lightening fast speed and getting into anything she isn't supposed to. We installed baby locks on all of the lower cabinets because she was opening them all and getting into trouble!
Brynn's hair is starting to get a little bit of a curl in the back. I had ringlets until they grew out and got cut off and Scott's had a little curl. So we'll see how it works out for Miss Brynn.

Christmas pics!

Here are a few pictures from Christmas!Christmas Eve!

Christmas Morning!
She loves to crawl back and forth through the door.

Being pushed on her car. She loves it! It also turns into a walker for her and she has so much fun "running" around the living room!

Brynn and my Mom!

Santa's reindeer!!

We had a nice holiday with family and friends. We hope everyone stayed safe and enjoyed their time with loved ones! Now on to 2010!

9 months (a tad late)

Ooops! Brynn is almost 10 months, so I thought it would be a good idea to post her 9 month pictures before then. We've been busy okay!
I don't have a whole lot to say other than Brynn is on the move non-stop!!

Santa Claus is coming to town...

Brynn got to meet Santa! She was amazed and tired, but we got a good smile out of her before she passed out in the car on the way home. Let the craziness of the Christmas season begin!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

We hope everyone enjoys their Thanksgiving with family and friends. Eat lots of turkey and my favorite, pumpkin pie!

A quick update on the teeth front...Brynn now has two! Her bottom left finally came through, it only took about 2 months. So yay for teeth!!

Uh-oh: Part Deux!

The baby gates are being installed this weekend!

8 months!

Okay, I'm a little late on this post. Better late than never, right?Brynn is 8 months old! I say this every month, but time is flying by! She is an expert crawler now...zooms all over the place. You walk into the next room and before you know it she is right there with you! Still pulling up and cruising around on everything too....nothing is off limits. Brynn loves dog toys and the dog bowls. Seriously, that is what she crawls around looking for!

Another tooth *should* be right around the corner. We can see the white and it bulges out of the gum, but can't actually feel the tooth yet.And just because I like this pic...

She is so proud of herself!

This has been my view when I get Brynn from her crib after a nap...who does she think she is? Standing in her crib...geesh!
She has her Saints jammies on to help the Saints stay undefeated! And it would be nice since Scott is at the game for them to win!! C'mon Saints!

Who Dat!?!

Had a good time watching the Saints shoot down the Dirty Birds on Monday Night Football with Matt, Anna and Mason. The ole Aints are 7-0!!!

And she's off....

For the last week or so Brynn has been doing this pseudo crawl and then rolls to get what she is after. But in the last few days she has been doing the real deal! She isn't very good or fast at it yet, but she has figured it out. She can also get herself into the sitting position when she gets to what she wants. Better watch out she is a lady on the move!
She is also pulling herself up onto anything and everything she can. She then tries to cruise around holding on to the couch, ottoman and us. And little Miss thinks she is a big shot, if you give her your fingers to hold on to she will walk all around the house.So now that she's mobile, I guess we will be seeing some bumps and bruises and I suppose we need to baby proof!

Happy Halloween!

We hope everyone had a safe and spooky Halloween! Brynn did go trick or treating, but didn't collect on any of the treats. Only having one tooth kind of spoils that fun! Here is our little bee buzzing around!We also had some pictures taken of her for Halloween. Here they are:

Brynn, MeMaw. MeMaw, Brynn!

Our little Brynn got to meet her Great Grandmother last week. MeMaw (my Grandma for you West Coasters) came out all the way from New Orleans to meet Brynn and Mason. We had such a nice time last Friday night at our house, Saturday at Mom's with the family and Sunday at Matt's house. Saints won again!! Who Dat?!? Although MeMaw watched the Saints play in the Superdome on TV, she STILL has never stepped foot in that place. Imagine being 49 and a half years old and never going inside the Superdome. Oh wait, she finally admitted she's 80! She doesn't look it or act like it though!! Wish we all lived closer together.

We are so thankful for our families!

Uh-oh!

I'm not sure where she thinks she is going?!?!? In fact, she got stuck there and needed help sitting back down. She has been doing this for the last week or so...what's next?
