Enjoying our little one



Mike and I are enjoying Brinley TONS! She has grown so much since birth. Brinley had her two week appointment last Friday and weighed in at 9 lbs 1 oz and measured 21.5 inches long! Sometimes I wonder if she has grown so much in length because she stretches out her little legs so much! I have been making small attempts at light runs with Brinley. Jogging strollers take some getting used to and obviously the jogs are a slow start. Mike has still been training for the St. George marathon that is coming up in October. His poor toes are in pretty bad shape with blood blisters forming underneath his nails from the long runs. Is there any prevention for that? Anyways he will be finishing up summer term here in about a week and I am super excited! We might be heading up to MT for a visit or maybe just hanging around here. But at least Brinley and I will be able to spend more time with him... like cooking meals together! :)


Other good news: Mike's sister, Krista, is scheduled for a c-section tomorrow. So, Brinley will have a new cousin! We hope everything goes well for her.

Here are a couple of new things that Brinley enjoys:

*Taking a bath in the tub and moving her legs like a little frog.. so cute!

*Peeing in her towel after she gets out of the tub

*Mike or I taking her for a nightly walk... (someone NEEDS to be holding her, it NEEDS to be outside and ALWAYS past 10 pm).. our funny little kid!

Brinley is not a big fan of:

*Getting out of the tub

*Vibrating chairs

*Not being held
