Brynlee's 1st Birthday!!

Even though Brynlee is almost 13 months...better late than never!! We had a fun BBQ party for Brynlee's 1st birthday. It was fun to have our own place to have everyone come over and fit in. Brynlee wasn't too sure about all the attention but soon realized it was all about her, and soaked up every second!! I have come to the realization that she is an attention sponge. She soaks it up like crazy and continues to want more and more of the spotlight. This could probably lead to some problems I'm sure...good thing we are planning on more kids hopefully helping the situation!! lol She is very little for her age...but the doctor isn't worried because she is growing and will probably always be a little small. Packer genes, sorry Bryn! :) Her stats are: Height 28 Inches 20% Weight: 18.2 lbs 9% Oh and don't you worry that head isn't small 46cm 77%!!! hahaha!! Anyways...wanted to list 12 of my favorite things about Brynlee....they are:

1. How smiley she is!
2. Her sense of humor...she cracks up so easily! And her laugh is so cute!!
3. Her determination and independence. She is constantly trying to figure out how to work something, how to open something she shouldn't, and she wants to feed herself dang it!
4. The words she can say Da-da, Go, Go Away, Thank you, juice, and rarely do I get a ma-ma!!
5. I love the way her legs look so stiff and her butt sticks out when she walks. It always makes me laugh!
6. She is SO daring!! Already climbing up and down the stairs without any hesitation.
7. When she is really impatient she stops her feet really fast and yells at me!! lol
8. Her temper tantrums, even though they drive me crazy it is funny to see her throw herself on the floor and scream!
9. Her fetish with shoes, if there are shoes left around, she picks them up, carries them wherever she goes and eventually brings them to you. She could play with shoes for hours!!
10. Her hugs and kisses. They are so sweet, and I sure do love my 10 seconds of cuddles before she is up and off being the busy body she is!
11. She LOVES to walk on grass and be outside. She will stand at the back door and cry until I take her out there!
12. She is a busy body...sure keeps me busy, but I love it!! I love seeing her learn new things, love seeing her excitement for life, and her funny little personality everyday!!!

It's so fun having kids...can't wait for more!! I sure do love this little girl!! Can't believe she is 1!!

Not so sure about everyone singing and staring at her!!

She was loving opening presents...and she actually liked the toy more than the wrapping paper. lol!
