Where to begin? This last year almost seems like 10 years in one. I can't believe a year ago I had Brinley. She is such a blessing in our lives. With all of the sadness, turmoil and stress of this past year she has lifted much of that weight with her smiley bubbly personality. A few of the many things we love about Brinley and that she does:
-She always smiles when she wakes up and is sooo happy!
-She has the cutest girly laugh and is ticklish under her arms, above her knee, on her back and under her chin
-Her humor is different than mine or Shad's she thinks growling is soo funny
-I will tell her "you better run" and she crawls as fast as she can to get away from me. Once I catch her and tickle her she laughs pretty hard
-She is very animated. She has this open mouth chin thing she does (not sure how to describe it). If you aren't paying attention to her she will tilt her head as far as she can to stare at you until you pay attention to her. She has many tongue tricks and she is a tease (thank uncle Lafe)!!!
-I can give her food and she will feed herself
-She hates food (sticky or gooey) on her hands or face. For her first birthday cake she became quickly annoyed having frosting on her hands and not being able to get it off.
-She is a daddy's girl....all she has wanted today is dadda
-There are about six words in her vocabulary: dadda, momma, bobba, happy, baby and hi
-She has never been a good sleeper at night. She wakes up at least twice a night...yeah for us!
All in all she is the perfect fit for our family and we thank God everyday for her!!! On her birthday Shad's mom was down helping us with the house since she is an expert in a lot of areas with cleaning and painting. So, we took Brinley to the Zoo. Angie, Kourtnie and their kids all came and we had a lot of fun. Brinley loved the carousel, the baby giraffe and the elephant. I can't wait to take her back again! We love you Brinley!!!!
