Stayin busy!

I finally got my camera back.. well, a new one.. it is different, but I am just glad to have one! :)

Braylie was trying to ride on all her toys, so we decided that we probably should get her something she can actually "ride" on. We searched everywhere, but had to order this online. She was quite suprised and couldn't wait to get on it! :)


She was trying to put raisins down the vents and watching the birds outside! NICE!!! She loves to watch the birds and it makes me think of Grandma Bergeson and her love for the birds.

Watching dinner cook...
Helping Mom clean.. she loves this stupid thing.. every time I get it out she RUNS to help and cries when we put it away!


Dad taught her how to sit on the heat vents to get warm... she does this on her own now!

Spending some time with Dad..
Brandon likes to rough house with her.. she puts up with it.. sometimes.. Dad really needs a boy!:)

We finally completed a project on our to do list: paint the inside of our outside doors. AGH! Just when the paint smell went away... oh, but they look SO much better!! This is before.. they are now a normal white--same as the trim.

I have a smart doctor that said I was ok to smell the paint, but not do the work! :) Too bad Brandon bought enough paint to do the whole basement.. hope he has fun! :) We finally bought and hung blinds for our door windows.... Braylie wanted to help! She is into climbing everything she can! Gotta love those necklaces! :)
Sharing Dad's famous NACHOS. We can't eat anything without her having to have some. She is constantly eating.. AMAZING that she is in the 3rd percentile for her weight---must have her Dad's metabolism! ;)
random box pulling..
getting ready to go work outside with Dad in the cold.. and you can see her horrible owie above her lip. She was sitting on my lap reading books and she took a dive off my lap (which really isn't that high when sitting on the floor) and nailed the edge of her board book. She bled. I was worried for a minute but it stopped bleeding quick. I had no idea it was this bad till the next day. Poor girl!

She is learning SOOO much, I can't believe it! She can blow kisses, give kisses, dance, wave, shows us her belly (and working on other body parts), clap, jump all on command. She copies the things we do like crazy. She loves pushing her stroller and carts and will very rarely ride in them. She pulls out books and backs up to sit on our laps to have us read to her. She is walking down some stairs frontward holding onto the railing. She says "snack" when she is hungry. She blows when you say hot! She follows commands VERY well. She says "EW". Oh man.. she is so much fun! :)

~Pumpkin Patch~


We stood in line forever and Braylie wandered the parking lot..
we rode out to the patch, which Braylie wasn't quite sure about..
We walked the field of pumpkins...
Braylie found her pumpkin "look, look, look" while she pointed to this one
Agh... why is she getting so big!?
We ate a little dirt

Dad worked hard to get our pumpkins.. next time.. don't take the diaper bag! :)
carried our pumpkins back to the trailer..
and rode back with our pumpkins

Thank you Davis Hospital!! It was tons of fun!

results are in...

We found out this evening that we will be blessed with another little girl! :)

I think that deep down I KNEW it was a girl, but I didn't want to admit it and was holding out for a boy, (hey... we need some boys in our family sometime--guess NOT YET! :)) but on there way to our appt.. I KNEW it was a girl! :) It really will be good to have another girl with the two of them being so close and we don't have to buy hardly a thing!
We are really excited to meet her!

Brandon, of course, was a little disappointed, but he will be ok! ;)


WE just have NO names picked out... HELP!! :)
OK, I have a name, but I think it is probably too close to Braylie and Brandon doesn't really like it, so... PLEASE... we don't even have ideas!
I want it to be different and not overly used.
I would appreciate suggestions!!

Audition

My sister found randomly came across an add looking for blonde hair, blue eyed babies between the age 12-16 months to be in a diaper commercial. I called and sent pictures of Braylie and they set her up an audition. I was so nervous and didn't know what to expect. They said that they were going to have them climb up a small rock wall. We went in and I wasn't sure if she was going to do it.. she went in and went straight for the wall and went right up it twice (with me holding/helping her feet). They kept saying how beautiful she was.
I was proud! :)

I got a call the next day saying they loved her and wanted her back.. so we went the next day for her second audition. She climbed right up it again a couple times. They said that they really liked her and they were glad we brought her in and that they would let us know.

We didn't hear back, so guessing that is a NO! Bummer! Oh well, the possibility was fun enough! ;)
It probably was just because they were trying to find 4 babies that were similar looking (facial features, size, etc). I am sure there was no baby as cute as mine! :) Haha!
