Eight Weeks

Sorry we haven't posted anything lately... Brylie keeps us busy (and school doesn't help much, either). Here's an update:

  • Brylie loves to be held (in fact, I'm holding here right now); she doesn't let us put her down for long. In fact, she seems to sleep better in our arms than she does in her bed or anywhere else.
  • She's outgrown her newborn clothes and diapers!
  • We were sad to hear that most of her hair would fall out, but it seems pretty determined to stick around on her head. We love it.
  • She's much more attentive now. She's started following our faces with her eyes and she'll stop crying when we distract her with toys, songs, dances, and new diapers (sometimes).
  • She's quite the jogger. She's "run" with mom for probably 30 miles, and probably walked for another 20.
  • She has invented many new cries. It's kinda cute the first couple times we hear them.
  • She can hold her head up pretty well and has gotten quite a few compliments on it.
  • She said "mom" last night (ok, she was just crying and happened to start and end the scream from a closed-lip position, but it sounded like "mom" to me).
  • She started smiling a few weeks ago. She gave her first really big smile to Mor Mor, and she smiles fairly often now (my favorites are when she wakes up in the morning, stares at stuff for awhile, and then smiles while I talk to her).
  • We've been inviting a lot of friends over for dinner. We realized that we're leaving Utah in less than 2 months and won't see many of our friends after we move (we're also semi-secretly trying to get our married friends baby-hungry).
  • Danielle now enjoys pink (although she assures me that she only likes light pink).
Here are some pictures from the last few weeks:







We love giving Brylie a mohawk after bathtime









Brylie loves Daddy! She was so nice to give kisses
