Happy Mother's Day--Belated!

This was my First official Mother's Day--with baby outside of the womb. I had a great weekend with my mom and grandma who came for a visit. From Brinlie and Daddy I received a beautiful mother and child necklace. Over the weekend the four generations went for High Tea at Glen Eyrie castle and had a great time. Brinlie was a good sport, even though she was still recovering from a double ear infection!

New foods

It appears that Brinlie has taken after her mommy in more than just looks. She is not a big fan of vegetables. It should be no surprise that she has a sweet tooth, just like her mommy. Here she is continuing to tolerate the sweet potatoes that daddy is feeding her.

"Must I eat these? Seriously?"
I'll eat if Daddy feeds me.
"See mom?! I will eat vegetables! (Just the sweeter kinds....)"

Swingin'

Brinlie loved the swings at the park near our house. She just kept kicking her legs and was smiling the whole time. Grandma W. just bought a swing for her house that we can't wait to try out in June!

"How cute am I??!!"
"I love this swinging thing!"

Getting Stronger Everyday!

Brinlie just keeps getting stronger and stronger everyday. One of these days she's just going to start crawling out of the blue! Here's a couple of pictures of her playing around on the floor--showing off her mad skills!

I love the little smirk on her face here!
"Is that the camera??!! I LOVE cameras!"
"Look at me roll over...."
"I can do lots of push-ups!"

Birthdays Galore!

April has been a month of celebrations over here! Brinlie sure is ready to P-A-R-T-Y! She's been great at all of the parties and can't wait for her very own birthday party---over Labor Day weekend--every year for the rest of her life!

Some of my Favorite pics

These pictures were taken while we were in Hawaii last month. I just love the adorable expressions on her face and how blue her eyes are. (Now let's see if they STAY blue!)

Sitting up--now she's a pro!
"Look how cute I am!"
Look at those big, blue eyes!

All good things must come to an end...

Well, the maternity leave is officially over! I went back to work last Monday and it's been CRAZY busy ever since. Soooooo, the blog will not be updated as frequently now that I'm a working mother. I'll tell ya, I've never been so happy to have a nap with Brinlie! She's such a good sport and I miss her so much everyday!

Brinlie in her exersaucer. Doesn't she look like she's riding a bull??!!
