One Month and More

So Brynnlee is a little over one month and we are loving our new little addition. She is so content with life (except when mom eats chocolate). Parker and Kora continue to help out and constantly want her to look at them, and to hold her and to show off for her. Today Parker wanted to hold Brynnlee and once I got them situated he looked at me and said " Mom now take a picture." Here are a few of our fun family pictures of the last month.

Arghh. . . Parker be 4

We had a blast last week with Captain Parker's Birthday party. Parker had been waiting for this party since June. He even got to create a count down the week after Brynnlee was born so he wouldn't drive everyone crazy with "Today my party, Mom?" The day started off with "4" shaped pancakes for Parker and a lots of getting things set up.

We made pirate flags, played toss the cannon ball (hot potato), sail yer boat to the treasure (Pin the tail on the donkey), and Pirate Pirate Captain (Duck Duck Goose),

Nana made an amazing treasure chest cake and we even hunted for treasure around the house.

The kids seemed to be having a good time and Parker even talks about what he wants for his next Pirate Birthday. All in all it was fun to get thing ready and I'm a little glad it's over. :)

Settling In

I had a little fun while our new little angel slept.

(Which when she sleeps it's very hard to wake her.) Here are a couple of my favorites.

The little lip curl is becoming one of my favorite faces.

Brynnlee doesn't like wide open spaces so when she is put on her stomache or back she curls up as best she can and hangs out until someone moves her again. Did I mention she's a very quiet and content baby?

Uncle Dayne was SO excited to hold her.
