Watch Me Now, Hey!

What a couple weeks it has been!  So I told you a couple weeks ago Brynley began sitting on her own, which she is becoming quite skilled at. While she was improving her sitting ability, she must have lost her balance and tipped over square.  Poor girl, had mom sitting right behind and by the time Christina turned to catch her, Brynley was sitting there flat on her face.  It sounds worse than it really was, but Brynley paused for a second or two, then a loud cry burst out.  Probably the loudest I have heard her in all her 5 months of being with us. Christina began sulking her and trying to settle her emotions. Well the pain must have been too much. As Christina turned towards me, all I saw were 2 huge tears sliding down her cheeks, lips curled downward, and eyes just filled with tears. I would have to agree with what parents say, "when they hurt, you hurt".  That statement is as true as it gets. 

Brynley is 5 months now and I am working on trying to get her to say "Da-Da", but it has been a very slow process. She will get there soon.  No signs of any teeth yet or her beginning to crawl.  She will definitely be crawling sooner than later I just know it.  In the evenings she loves to talk.  Brynley will go on and on on how her day went with Goo or how happy she is after finishing dinner. You didn't know we spoke baby talk did you?  We are so blessed to have such a happy baby.  We love her to pieces and can't wait until she begins to walk and talk. That will be a fun age..... I think.  :)     Her feeding habits have been pretty normal.  She typically eats about 6 oz per feeding, but we are about to begin some mushed up carrots or sweet peas.  I think she will enjoy the new foods.  We are on the hunt for a Halloween costume, so stay tuned for that picture. Heck, we might even get some good video footage. Until then, PEACE!
