I Admit, I'm An Addict!

Okay okay...I get grief from my husband all the time that I am addicted to getting Brynlee's pictures taken. I have come to conclusion that maybe I am a little obsessed! But I just think she is so cute, and I think she changes so fast I want to have lots of memories! The only problem I am going to run into is when we have more kids I will have to make sure to get the same amount of pictures of them so I don't get the classic "You loved them the most, look how many pictures they have!" These are some of her Halloween Pictures and they totally caught a coulple of her smiles!

Our little lady bug with her big, cute, Murphy smile!

Happy Halloween!

Daddy & Bryn

Now that I am working Joe gets to be Mr. Mom a couple times a week. Now he understands why I don't get alot done some days... I do have to laugh a little though...When I come home I can tell he really hasn't moved from the living room, there are toys everywhere, diapers everywhere, dirty spit up clothes, and empty cups/plates that haven't made it back to the kitchen. He also has a great talent of dressing Brynlee in the worst matching clothes possible!! It's actually pretty hilarious! If I don't set something out before I leave I come home to some pretty crazy outfits! Good thing they don't leave the house much together! ;) Now I think he does it despite me becuase I give him a hard time...he always says "I just don't care if they match!" He also doesn't want to move once Brynlee falls asleep...because he is afraid of waking her up. So he lets his own legs fall asleep in order to keep her asleep to have a little peace and quite becuase she really doesn't sleep much these days! When I come home he is SO glad I'm there. 1. So I can feed Brynlee, 2. So he can shower, 3. because he is about to go crazy...especially is she has been fussy! And he wonders why I am sometimes a little on edge by the time he gets home from work!!?? :)

In other news...I bought this kicking toy the other day. She gets so excited she kicks her legs like crazy! So when she kicks the blue foot petal thing it makes these things above her head spin and sing songs and what not...it's great! She can do it for hours!! She loves it!! She seriously kicks so much she always kicks her socks off! It is my life to put her sock back on. I swear I do it 50 times a day! Doesn't matter what kind of sock, she manages to get it off! But she sure does love her new toy!

Also, this Sunday the second counselor in the bishopric asked to talk to Joe and I after church. I was really nervous becuase I am the Personal Progress Advisor in Young Womens and REALLY didn't want to get moved to Primary. (Not that I don't love Primary...but it would be really hard with Brynlee right now!) Anyways...long story short I got released and called to be the Mia Maid Advisor. I'm really excited! I love being in the Young Womens and I'm SO glad they didn't move me! I'm nervous about teaching each week, but it will be good for me! I think that is all the news right now...oh and the results of explosion....I had to cut my hair! It was breaking off So bad! So I cut 2 inches off the front, and 4-5 inches off the back. (The back was the worst becuase I turned away from the explosion) :( But it will grow right? Well I'm off to try and get some things done around here...which is hard, lately Brynlee doesn't like to EVER be put down! Spoiled little girl! :)

Brynlee's Blessing Pictures

This past Sunday was Brynlee's Blessing. It was also the first day of snow in Utah which made for a very cold day! It was such a special day for us. Joe gave her an amazing blessing. The spirit was so strong! The support we had from friends and family was awesome, and it couldn't have been a better day! We had a yummy brunch afterward at my parents since our condo is so dang small, it was fun to visit with everyone. It's weird that all my cousins and friends we grew up with are all married and starting to have their own kids too! I really can't believe how fast time flies...I'm married, have a baby and she is almost 3 months old!! I can't believe she is almost 3 months old! She is trying to be such a big girl already! TodayI put her in 3-6 month clothes becuase alot of her 0-3 month she is too big for! It made me cry! lol We are so blessed to have her in our family! Thank you to all who came, we love you all so much!

My Hair Caught On Fire!!!

Yes you read the title correctly!! After a great day today I was feeling all energetic and decided to make a yummy dinner! (Doesn't happen often) I also decided I would show Joe my awesome cooking skills and make something that takes a little more effort (also doesn't happen often :). Well As I was attempting to make sweet and sour chicken...the oil I was boiling to deep fry my battered chicken in caught on fire!!! (After this all happened I read the oil label which says, may catch on fire if overheated, this I didn't know!) I hurried and turned off the burner and yelled at joe and asked him what to do...he said "Hurry take it outside and dump it on the grass!! Get rid of it!!" So not trying to put the fire out in the kitchen, I listen to my husband who also doesn't know much about burning oil and I take it out and hurry and dump it on the grass before it starts burning my hand which it is about to do! As I do this a HUGE and I mean HUGE explosion happens! I am completely engulfed in flames! The dog takes off running, I shut my eyes I think I'm going to die, and Joe comes running....as well as the neighbor who sees the huge explosion of flames! AfterI realize I am not on fire, my face is okay, and I don't have third degree burns, I then reach for my hair. Oh what a sad moment in a hair dressers life... My hair is singed everywhere!!! My eyes brows are singed, and I'm lucky my eye lashes are still intact! Long story short...Apparently water makes oil explode!! Hmmmm...should have thought about that one before dumping it out onto wet grass! Now I'm very depressed about my hair...I either have to cut it, or put extensions in and try to salvage what I have...I've been trying to grow it out for a year now...and Joe makes matters ten times worse becuase he always wants it long and tells me it looks better long...Gee thanks for the confidence boost!! I'm very upset about the whole situation....even though it is a little funny now... I am VERY lucky I didn't burn my my face!! I would post a picture...but I don't think I want to remember this!! :)

2 Month Shots

Well Brynlee had her 2 month check up/shots yesterday...Everything was going great and she was all smiles until she got the shots! Sinces the shots she has been so sad and had a VERY rough night last night! On the bright side she now weighs 10lb. 15oz. and is 23 inches long. She is in the 50th and 60th percentile for everything which is good! But now it's just so sad becuase every time she even moves her legs she cries! :( Breaks my heart! I'm keeping on Tylenol all day today too, I'm afraid how she would be if I wasn't giving it to her every 4 hours... :S She seems a little bit better today...I think we are both just really tired from not sleeping last night!! Just when she was sleeping 6 hours straight I have mess it all up by the shots! haha Isn't it the worst when your child is crying in pain and there is nothing you can do? I'm absolutley dreading the teething process!!
