Orange Beach/World Series Trip:

Brad took Brinley and I to the beach this summer. It was her first trip to the beach! She had a blast! Chandler had baseball the entire trip and his team came in second! I was so proud of him!

Christmas Pictures!

I cannot believe Christmas is already here! This year has flown by. I had Brinley's and my pictures done a few weeks ago. We had a blast!

Brinley is 1 month old!!!

It is amazing how time is flying by so fast since I had Brinley! She has changed & grown SO much since I had her. Even though she seems so tiny to everybody else she seems so much bigger to me! It is so neat how much she has changed in just a month. I notice her focusing a lot more on certain things & she is starting to stay awake a lot more these days.
The things I ADORE:
When she wants me to hold her.
When she hears my voice and turns her head to look for me.
When she wants me to cuddle her up to me.
Watching her sleep.
How she (tries to) suck on her hand.
The fact she NEVER cries unless she gets hungry.
She doesn't cry when she gets a bath.
She is always so calm.
Never in a million years did I imagine I would enjoy being a Mother. I have always heard "some people just are not made to be mothers" and that terrified me! I truly love, love, LOVE, being a Mother! Being a Mother makes me feel like I am actually 'good' at something. I never would think I would say this, since I had Brinley- I honestly would not mind have 3 more! Yes, MOE! That is how much I love it! I want to do it right next time, marriage to be specific!
God blessed be in SO many ways giving me Brinley! I had no idea it was possible to be this happy, or if I would ever truly just be happy & now I finally am. It is all because of Brinley. Life could not be better for me!

Precious Memories
