The Last 2 Weeks!

Well the last two weeks have been somewhat eventful. I was just getting over being sick with mastitis, when Madison, Zachary and myself all got head colds. I however lovingly passed it on to Brynley. It's just a yucky nose right now and a little cough. Let's hope it doesn't turn into something else.
*********
Both Travis and I noticed that Brynley was looking a little thin. Weird to say I know but something didn't look right. She was extremely fussy, and wouldn't let us put her down. I thought it was something that I had eaten and it made her belly hurt. Or maybe that Dr. Pepper I drank didn't agree with her. We stared crossing things off the list, and we still couldn't figure it out.

So this is what we did for 2 weeks! I wore Brynley in the front carrier! I did dishes, made dinner and folded laundry all while she just hung out!

Well come to find out, we or rather I was starving her. She lost almost a whole pound over those two weeks! She was just flat out hungry! I was nursing her every 3 hours and I thought she was getting enough.
So we headed to the doctors office and she was down to 7lb 10oz from 8lb 8oz! So the doctor suggested we supplement. I had a freezer full of milk, so now after she nurses she eats a 2-3 oz bottle! She is now full and content and happy!
Doesn't she look happy and content?!?!

Right before we headed out the door to Church!

Well I guess that is all for now! Hope you all had a good Valentine's Day!!!

Easy Bake and Brynley

Madison got an Easy Bake Oven for Christmas this year from her Great-Grandma. I had one when I was about the same age and I remember that it was a lot of fun!
After weeks for putting it off, and many question of "Can we do Easy Bake now??" I decided to finally open the box and give it a go!


Mixing up the cake!

The "oven" came with a yellow cake mix, chocolate frosting mix and a sugar cookie mix. So we mixed up the yellow cake mix, followed the directions and was not very impressed! Madison was over joyed that she got to eat her creation! Travis quickly reminded us that you can't cook stuff with a light bulb then laughed at us!

Madison and I had fun and that's all that matters!

I think she was more excited about the pan pusher than anything!

Now for more pictures of Brynley!! She is now 3 weeks old and getting more and more cute! She was taking her morning nap and looked all warm and fluffy! So of course I had to take a picture! Isn't she just adorable?

We love this little bug so much, and we are so glad that she is part of
our family!
