How big's Brynlee?

*4 months old*
Isn't she gorgeous?! I know I am biased, but still.
13lbs
24.5 inches long
Size 1 diapers
Still in 0-3 month clothes(but her length will move her up soon)

She has tons of control with her hands now. Its so recent. She grabs toys all the time. And if I'm holding her and I have the remote in my hand, oh she wants that thing! I think my last post, I wrote a lot of what I would say here, so I am not going to say much more. Ciao!

Single~~~~For Now.

You know. Nick has only been gone for 5 days, and I must say, I am not too fond of this single parent thing. No, I'm not complaing, mainly because I have a super good baby. Even the little things though. For instance, this morning. Usually this is how our Sunday morning goes:

-One of us gets up and feeds Brynlee
-The other lets the dogs out and feeds them
-Also they take a shower
-Brynlee is done
-Person who is already showered gets B changed and dressed
-While the un-showered takes a shower

Those are the main parts of our morning...sometimes we eat breakfast sometimes we don't. I know thats bad. But my point, we were a tad late to Sunday School this morning. Silly me forgot to wake up early to get all ready before Brynlee was ready to get up and eat and so on. We managed though! We were really only about 10 minutes late. Better late then never right!


All in all, I give those single parents out there props. I mean its tough stuff being the only one to do everything. Thank goodness noone has come over to my house. Haha. Nah its not that bad. Ever since Nick left though, we have been go go go. VBS was this last week, and we skipped Mon & Tues to spend time with daddy but we helped Wed and Thurs. Its in the evenings this year too so we weren't getting home till 930p. Then Friday we skipped(they had tons of volunteers, we didn't leave 'em hanging!) and hung out with some other girls that are husband-less and played games and just visited together. Then Saturday morning was the VBS picnic and so we were there all morning and then went to the movies with some girls. Then of course, Sunday's are always full. So, its been a busy week really and its not stopping till at least tomorrow night! We have Brynlee's 4 month well baby check up tomorrow morning then Bible study tomorrow night. Whew.

Tuesday, we don't have anything planned but to go to the track in the am. I love being outside and exercising. My friend Holly told me what she is going to be doing to pass the time-her hubs is with mine-she is going to be deep cleaning each room of her house. One room a night. So I think I am gonna do the same, maybe it will help when we have to move and get things inspected! Who knows.

Brynlee is learning so much so fast. She rolled over the other day from her belly to her back. Has yet to do it again, but seems like she will be doing the back to belly pretty soon here. She has not started to grab everything! As we were sitting in church tonight, she was on my lap and she was grabbing the hymnal. Then later on my face, and my lips and my nose. So yeah it has begun! I am not sure if I'm ready for the training of a child, haha.
Thats all I have for now. Ciao!
