the little things...

***DISCLAIMER- I read over this after I was done typing and found not a little but A TON of spelling and grammers errors. I usually have some and try to fix them although I don't always but there are so many in this post and right now I"m really not caring so take it as it is. You get the point!

I haven't done well on documenting lately. I'll catch up. I promise. (i hope) haha
For now I wanted to write about our life right now. Things that are new or that I want to remember about the little things. "Reeaaady... ssseeeeeet.. GGGOOOOO!" -Braylie Toone 2 yrs. old


Dear Braylie:

- I love how every morning you run to find Traetyn just so you can say, "Hi Bobby" and rub his little head with a kiss.
- I love how everytime you see him in general you say "Hi Bobby" :)
- I liked it at first but now I'm kind of done with you saying "I want that pone" to EVERYTHING!! Use your words child! Today you did a little better but needless to say I'm ready for this phase to be over.
- I think it's so cute that you have started to say a lot of people's names and you are asking for certain people by using their name randomly. You can now say: Ashley, Kim, Dallon, Maddy, Hali, Aubrey, Blake, Mema, Grandpa(papa), and of course mom and dad :)
- Everytime I ask you to say Traetyn you just scream baby (bobby) and get so happy and clap for yourself as if you actually did say Traetyn. haha one of these days you'll get it. It's a hard name so I'm giving you that. ;D
- Whenever you hear a diesel truck outside you FREAK OUT in excitment and start laughing. If dad isn't home you think it's him but if he is home you think it's Papa and you just keep asking for him.
- One of your very favorite things to do this week is put yout teeny tiny princess tiara that came on the doll aunt kirsti got you last year for christmas on everyone's head. You REALLY like to put it one the bobby's head the very most though! Especially when he is sleeping and mom keeps asking you not to. You still do. You are very soft though and it rarely wakes him up so I guess it's not the end of the world. I won't tell you that though till you're older :)
- I love the way you say mom under your door when you want to get out of your room in the morning or after a nap. It's a very cute Ma-om. :) Unless it takes me a little bit in the morning to realize you are up.. then it turns into an impatient not so cute yelling of mom. But hey.. I kept you waiting.
- You talk A LOT!! I love how many words you say and how you say them! Each day you are putting new phrases together and really being able to communicate almost anything you want or need. This week you learned "Daddy work" You always ask for him in the morning and I have to tell you that he is at work. You also learned "Bobby hungy" :) You like to say this when Traetyn is eating :)
- You were so sweet the other day! Mommy was doing the dishes as fast as she could and brother was NOT happy. I caught you over by his swing saying "shhh bobby shhh" and you were rubbing and patting his little head. You gave him kisses and tried to put his binnk it. SOOO Sweet! You are the best big sister Traetyn could have ever asked for!
- While we are on the subject... I love when I catch Traetyn smiling at you!!! SOO SWEET! It could be something that you are doing or saying to him or I've even caught him a few times whith the biggest smile on his face just staring at you while you are watching a movie. He LOVES you so much!
- I loved a Lagoon a couple weeks ago that you were constantly saying... "i want a ride" :) You loved it there! And now in your little car car you ask to "ride"
- BIG milestone today missy!!! YOU ARE POTTY TRAINING!!! Today was the first day that you went pee AND poop might I add on the potty on purpose by your own free will!!! Mommy was soo proud of you! I called Grandma and wrote it on facebook to let everyone know! haha I hope that doesn't embarass you too much! You'll get over it :)
- I love how you say mommy I peed. or Poop. haha it's just so cute to hear it coming out of YOUR mouth :)
- I love how lately you have been saying "tay Mommy" when I ask or tell you something
- Oh another HUGE milestone! Last Sunday was the first Sunday you went into Nursery WITHOUT A SINGLE TEAR SHED!!! Not one tear the whole two hours!!! :) You are amazing little girl!
- You call popsicles "peekas" and Kitty's "seeyas) lately though you have been saying something that more resembles the word kitty.
- I love your sleeping habbits right now!!! You are sleeping through the night 12 hours and a 2 hour nap during the day. Both of which you are laying down awake in your toddler bed all by yourself and putting yourself to sleep. I hold you and rock you for 1 primary song and then lay you down. You always say no when I lay you down but I just tell you I need to go feed the baby or be with the baby and you say "tay" and lay down like an AMAZING big girl that you are! And you go right to sleep! (most times) :) Sometimes I get a request for more milk but we have been giving you water instead lately so you aren't drinking as much. ( I'm convinced you could drink milk for days straight before you would get tired of it)
- I love how anytime we are going somewhere right before we walk out the door you stop and turn and make sure to say, "bye bobby" and wave to him. :) and of course mom always follows by saying, he's coming with us Braylie. He is always coming with us now. He won't go away. ;)
- You are such a big girl and can put your panties on and off all by yourself!
- You are really good at putting all of your many different shoes on all by yourself. If you by chance put them on the wrong feet all mommy has to say is, "braylie your shoes are on the wrong feet, they go on the other feet." and you stop what you are doing and say "oh haha" and you sit down and switch them! Soo cute!


Dear Traetyn:

- I often say it... You are my angel baby! SOO GOOD! Mama thanks you!
- I love your smile and those big chubby cheeks!
- Last night you slept a whole 10 hours straight!! It was pretty amazing but at the same time I didn't sleep very well cause I was worried about you and kept waking up. Plus.. because of the long sleeping and the lack of eating at normal times, mama's boobs were hurting pretty bad. I was ready for you to eat and drain me of all the delicious milk my amazing body created for you so graciously while we were both asleep.
I love love love you sweet dimple on your chin. Let's make a note though. This chin dimple is not centered like you would assume... haha it is on the right side of your chin! Perfectly placed for my little chunk a hunk!
- I love your Chocolate birth mark on your middle finger on your left hand. And I love that the first day I noticed it after you were born sister was eating chocolate and I thought she had gotten some on you. Mama licked and licked at it but finally realized it wasn't chocolate at all. It's just you :)
- I love that when daddy walks by you follow him with your eyes
- When mama talks to you, you have started to coo and talk back. You have such a soft and deep little coo. I love it! You get so excited when I talk and you start moving your arms and legs and give off a little baby laugh... haha it makes mama feel so special little man, so thank you.
- I love how right now as I am typing this you are peacefully sleeping with no bink just relaxing in your swing. Thank you for taking a bink and liking it but not being so fussy and persistant that you have it like sister. with or without most of the time... you are just chill.
- You have the cutest chubby strong little legs. I love when you stand on them and just smile and jabber to mama.
- Thanks for being a rolly baby and having chubby cheeks. Those cheeks are SOOO kissable! And believe you me... mama kisses them.. A LOT! (and sister and dad of course!)
- Thank you Thank you Thank you for putting up with your sister. She really really likes you and likes to involve you in just about everything. :)


I really will get some pictures up of them soon! I need to use Payden's comp to do it though cause mine is being kind of retarted so I'm a little unmotivated. I'll get it done next week. You have my word! Can you tell I love my kids?!?! I have the best life with the most amazing children and husband!! SOO MUCH LOVE!! I will post on Payden seperately and at a dif time. He deserves his own attention :) For now that's what comes to mind about the kids although the list is CONSTANTLY growing! And I like it that way! It keeps life interesting. If they do sometime cute that I want to remember my goal is to try and write it down as soon as I can get to it so I can remember and they can look back and enjoy what mom has written. So watch out. A lot of small random posts might be coming!

Mommy Moments

Ok... so today was a rough day. Blame it on a bad mood or waking up on the wrong side of the bed or whatever you want. Me... I'm choosing the - I'm practically 9 months pregnant with little energy/sore body and a grumpy toddler going through a bad day of terrible two's who also decided not to nap today - route.

We made it though. Braylie is in bed, I got the kitchen cleaned up from dinner (still need to start the dishwasher, but everything is off the counters and food is put away) and I got my much needed bath! We survived! Let's hope tomorrow is a better day!

In spite of it all though, some funny things did happen today that lightened the day up a bit. I don't want to forget them so I thought I'd share. :)

This wasn't today but I need to write it down anyway. So last week Braylie started using her toddler bed. Mostly she lays down and goes to sleep within a couple min of me shutting the door. But every now and then she will just sit and play for quite a while before giving into her pillow. The other night she woke up at like 11:30 and I was getting out of the bath so Payden went and got her and brought her into our room for me. When he brought her in she had her shoes on... I took a second to understand what was going on and asked Payden if had put her shoes on her. Of course he said no, so that means that Braylie must have been playing before falling asleep and eventually went to sleep with her shoes on. haha what a funny girl. She LOVES shoes! In fact, today she threw a fit everytime I took her shoes off of her and would run to her room and put them back on. lol : )

The funniest thing that happend today though was once again... while she was supposed to be sleeping. I had put her down for a nap and hadn't heard much noise for a while so I figured it was safe to hop in the shower. When I got out of the shower I heard the monitor in our room going off and Braylie was whinning and moaning and calling for Mom on and off. So I go in there after I dry off and I can't find her.... It took me a second but then I realize that she is kneeling up on all fours underneath her blinds on the window seal pressed up against the window. When I walk in she started calling for help. "elp, elp" haha I died. I was laughing at her and at the same time I'm frustrated because she is supposed to be sleeping and I'm also wondering what in the heck is she doing up there and also feeling so bad for her and wondering how long she has been stuck like that!?! Her face was warm from the sun coming in the window and she seemed scared to get down although her bed is right there and all she had to do was put her foot onto her bed off of the window seal and she would have been fine. lol The things children do. A frustrating day with a toddler but this moment made it a little lighter. :)

A couple small things to remember about today:
Braylie and I danced in the living room to Taylor Swift and twirled and twirled until we were dizzy. We threw our heads back and spun and she just laughed and laughed. I couldn't take the stress with her anymore and needed some music to make me happy. It was just what we BOTH needed on a tough day!

After Braylie's bath before bed I was lying on the floor in her room while she was playing cause my legs were really sore from standing on them while cooking dinner, and she comes up to me and gives me her baby. She brought me all of her "night night's" (blankets) and covered me up with them. After she put the last blanket on me she kissed the top blanket and said night night and then laid her head down by me. A couple minutes alter after she got up she came over to me and sat real close and started stroking my face and then gave we a sweet kiss.

What a nice way to end a frustrating day. I love my little girl so much even though some days seem to be so hard raising such an active toddler. She is my world and not even the worst day could ruin a moment like this. We mommy's have a tough job. But once these kind of moments come along, it's all worth it and you forget home frustrated you might have been with them earlier. You just want to grab them in your arms and snuggle until they won't let you hold them anymore. <3

Toddler Bed!

Braylie's new toddler bed and mattress came in today! I was so excited to get it home and put it together so she could try it out and we could get started on the process of switching her from her crib to a bed. After about 2 hours of Payden and I (I sat and helped here and there... moral support right?) putting the bed together... it was finally done!! Braylie was SOOO excited!! She was laughing laughing laughing and kept throwing her head back saying night night night night... haha. As soon as we got her sheets on and stuff she hopped up there and was just jumping and kept falling onto her pillow laughing face first. She was in HEAVEN!! It was so cute to see her enjoy it so much!









After having a bath and some play time, it was time for her to go to bed. I debated not trying to make her sleep in it until nap time tomorrow but there is no time like the present! I tried laying with her at first and it went well.. until her sippy cup was all out of milk. haha Then she was getting up and putting her baby on the window seal and laughing and acting not tired at all. Although I knew she really was. She started throwing a fit cause I was trying to lay her down and so I left the room to see what she would do without me and shut the door tight behind me when I left. She started bawling and banging on the door and crying out mama mama... So I went back in there and she hopped back into bed. She started asking for her sippy so I got her a tiny bit of milk and left her in there by herself to see how she would do. (this is what I would normally do when she is in her crib) Turns out she got up after it was gone and was whinning and moaning. She would go quiet for a little bit and then start whinnig again. Eventually I went in there and she was playing with her hats. haha I climbed into bed with her and didn't let her get up again. She got really frustrated and started crying to the point she couldn't breathe she was so worked up... I seriously almost started crying myself I felt so bad for her. But she needed to learn so I stayed persistent with her. She snuggled up to me for comfort and ending up fallin asleep to me singing to her and scratching her back. But because we were so snuggled when she feel asleep, when I got up to leave she kinda woke up but was still laying still and quiet so I left anyway hoping she would just close her eyes and drift off again. As soon as I left she started crying and when I went right back in there she was climbing out of bed to come get me. I put her back in bed and tried to just sit next to the bed and sing while playing with her hair but that only lasted a minute. So I decided to rock her to sleep and then lay her down once she fell asleep. After a little persistence once again, she fell asleep. I could tell she was really out this time. I layed her down, tucked her in and walked away and it's been quiet coming from her room ever since!!! So she is now sleeping in her bed for the first night and not in her crib and it "only" took an hour and a half, a sippy and a half of milk and trying half a dozen diefferent ways to put her to sleep! Ahhh... haha the joys of trying to transition your child into a new way of doing things and helping them form new habbits. We'll see how the night goes. I'm tempted to tell myself to just lay her down in her crib if she wakes up in the middle of the night and tackle the battle again durin gnap time tomorrow. We'll see what kind of energy and determination I can muster up if that happens!

Mommy is so proud of you Braylie for making your first step into a toddler bed!! I can't believe how much you are growing up!! You looked so big as I walked away from that bed tonight and glanced back to see you sleeping soundly in a big bed all alone. Daddy and I love you more then words can say! <3 <3 Sweet dreams *

Progress!!!

Ok, so this post may be lame to pretty much everyone but myself and family who understand how bad of a time Braylie has had in Nursery. But I am thrilled about her progress yesterday!! She had a hard time like always when we we first went in but I told her I would stay and play with her for a little bit. So I dumped my bag, kicked off the heels, and tucked my dress around my legs and on the floor we played. She likes puzzles so i grabbed one of those and she started to calm down a little bit. She was still really worried I would leave but she started to play with the puzzle and was acting better. I played with her for a few min and then told her I needed to go and find Daddy and I'll be back in 10 min. I made sure she looked at me and I told her a couple times to make sure she knew what was going on. I got up to leave and naturally she started crying and was really sad but one of the workers took her and then I left. I came back in 10 min and when I peeked in the window she was doing so good! She wasn't crying and she wasn't having to be held. I really didn't even want to go in and ruin how well she was doing but I told her I would be back and I wanted her to have confidence that I would be.
When I went back in she started crying. I swear everything is worse when mom is finally there.( I used to do the same thing if Kim and Ashley hurt me. When mom came, it suddenly hurt so much worse!) But I played with her for a few min and calmed her down and then I told her it was time for me to go find Daddy again. She was a little less dramatic this time I left and she seemed to understand where I was going. In between classes I checked on her and she was sitting at the table eating snacks and being good all by herself! I got a thumbs up from the nursery worker and I went to class not even worrying about her for like the first time!!!


When I picked her up she wasn't even crying either! Even though the other parents were there to pick up their kids (which usually makes her cry really hard cause she wants to be picked up too) She wined a little bit when she saw me to tell me "how bad it was" and then she was happy and fine. And she was really proud of her picture she colored.(barely) haha
Needless to say... a MUCH better Sunday in nursery rather then crying and screaming pretty much the entire time. I'm so grateful that she is doing better. It is such a big relief! Here's to hoping that by the time Traetyn gets here, she'll be really good and actually ENJOY going to nursery!!! :)

28 weeks and Braylie update

I have finally reached my 3rd trimester! I say finally but really this pregnancy has gone by pretty fast. Faster then the first at least. At my last check up I had my gestational diabetes test that I passed with flying colors so the nurse said. :) I was actually a little worried about this test. This pregnancy all I have been wanting to eat is candy bars and junk food. And Kettle corn popcorn!!! :) So that was really good news that I passed!


We got to see our little man on the ultrasound at this appointment too!! :) I always love seeing the babies on there before they come out! It makes it all so much more real! And... HE'S STILL A BOY! He was being a bit shy at first so the doctor was a little worried for a minute but he's still all man! :)

Also we have officially decided on his name. He will be Treyton Payden Toone. I can't wait for him to get here! Seems like it will never come but it's only 3 months away! Crazy!

As for Braylie, she has been having bowl problems for quite a while now but the last month they kinda have gotten worse and all over the place as far as regularity and consistency. So last week we took her into the doctor and he took 3 vials of blood from our sweet little girl to do a bunch of lab tests to rule our any bowl disease or other serious things that could be going on. Monday we got her results and everything came back normal except for her liver. The blood results for that came back high. So the doctor said we will just watch her for the next few weeks and test her levels again in a month to make sure her liver has returned to normal. For now nothing serious is going on so that's good but we would really like to find the answer to all of her bowl problems!!! I'm not a fan of waiting forever but hopefully there will be some sort of results at the end of all of this and we can get Braylie feeling better! She's still a pretty happy girl.... most of the time... haha :)
(excuse the weird outfit and undone hair... all of her pants were in the wash and she wanted to wear a pretty. I just must have not gotten to the hair yet either. haha Oh well!)

18 months old and 25 weeks down!

Braylie is now 18 months old and I thought that I would put her stats on here so I'll remember later then just now.

her weight was 23 lbs. (with all her clothes coat and boots on) and she was in the 39th percentile

I'm not sure what her height was but she was somewhere around the 60th percentile.

Needless to say... our little girl just had a HUGE growth spurt. Now I can stop calling her small and say she's just under average. :)

Along with all the growing she has also outgrown most of her clothes. I had a pair of 18 month pants on reserve for when she fit into them and in a matter or a week they went from looking goofy big to looking comfortable and like they fit her really well. Luckily her shoes still fit so I just need to go buy some new shirts and maybe another pair of pants for her. Ahh the growing process. I have to say, I don't mind too much cause I LOVE shopping for her. I would seriously buy for her before I would want anything else. It's so fun!

Her swim suit bottoms she found and was wearing around the house as a hat :)

She can now say a whole bunch of new words and her "no" went from being cute and being used appropriately to being really annoying and used for everything! I am so ready for this phase to be over! Sadly it just began a few days ago so I'll have to put up with it for a little longer. My favorite word she says right now is help. I think it's so cute that she has figured out this concept. Unfortunately, they way she says it sounds like no with a p on the end. So that just adds to the annoyance. But the thought is there. :) She has also been saying mama a lot for everything which I enjoy hearing in her sweet little voice.

Braylie got Strep throat last friday so she was feeling pretty needy saturday. Especially after I took her to the doctor and she had to get a shot. Poor thing. That makes 2 shots in 2 weeks and she is now officially scared of the nurses and doctor. She has reached the age that she can now remember what happens at the doctors and she isn't a fan. Hopefully we don't have to go back for a long time and that should be her last shot for a couple years I think! :) I of course will have to go for the pregnancy but since I am having an ultrasound at the next appointment, she will be with a babysitter. :)

As far as my pregnancy goes, I am measuring right on and feeling great.I'm 25 weeks now and my little guy is becoming more active and the bigger I grow the more real it is becoming to Payden and I. I think we haven't been as focused on this pregnancy cause we have little Bray to take care so it has really flown by. That and me not being miserably sick has really helped this time around. :)

Here are some random pictures of us lately. :)

She tries to put on these shoes that are tiny and for her brother. Although she only fits a couple toes in them... she still seems to enjoy it. :)

Braylie update

I just wanted to do a quick update on Braylie and all the things she is and has been learning.

Words she can say:
Mom
Dad
Hi
Hello
uh oh
more
amen
alright! (her fav)
night night
nana (for Grandma Harry)
bye
oh wow
wo
no
ball

Words she can sign:
Milk
Please
Thank you
Love you
more
hi
bye

I feel like I'm forgetting some but I wanted to write these down so I will have a record of it. It seems like she has learned so much lately and I know she is approaching that age where it will take off even more!

We got her a potty for Christmas just to start introducing it to her and so far she has actually only gone once on there. But I just wanted her to start getting the idea. I was seriously so proud of her the time she did though!!! The first of many!

After thinking about it for a minute....

I remembered something that Braylie learned to do recently! About a week ago she learned where mom's nose is (even though she still doesn't know where her own nose is) and she learned where her teeth are. Yesterday she learned where her tongue is and let's just say it is soooo cute when she shows you with a nose wrinkle little smile and her tiny little tongue sticking out. Payden and I love it. haha She also knows the word shoes and automatically looks at her feet. She has waved at people forever but associated it with the word hi or bye and now I can say, "wave you hand," and she will wave :) She also knows how to "Bring it to mom"/"can Mom have it Braylie?"

Let's see Let's see.... Lately she has been "cooking"... she will get one of my tupperware and get one of her favorite spoons or spatulas from my utensil drawer and she will sit there and stir her imaginary food forever! It's so cute and it keeps her entertained for a good amount of time.

If I think of anything else I'll update you... that's all for now :)

Long awaited update

So It's been a while... sorry for that. We have traveled A LOT this summer but i actually think that it has finally come to the end. It was a BLAST but I have to say.... it's really nice to just be home!
I lost my camera so there probably won't be picture updates for a while and if there is then they will be off my phone and not great quality.
So Braylie got on a new sippy cup this week and I'm really excited that she is no longer on a soft nipple :) She is becoming a big girl! :) As far as what else Braylie is doing... she now loves her baby doll and other stuffed animals. She totes them around the house and gives them hugs and kisses. :) She is here and there on eating and that's something that we are working on. If anyone has good ideas for food good for toddlers.. LET ME KNOW!!!!!!!!!!! Please leave a comment with your thoughts! I really need help on this topic. She already eats like a little bird and I have a hard time coming up with different things to feed her instead of the same old same old. Another thing is that Payden and I don't really eat during the day much so sometimes I just don't think about feeding her and give her milk instead. It's a really bad habit I have formed. As for all of our traveling... I am supposed to be getting pictures from my brother and sister-in-law sometime this week so i'll update you on all of that later. :)

Braylie is currently cutting her 7th tooth! :) She has been a little grumpier with this tooth but I still think she handles getting teeth really really well!!!! She is also in the process of moving to a different scheduale. She recently decided that she wanted to have only one to two naps a day instead of three to four and to also go to bed earlier. This all fine and dandy to me except the effects of these choices. The outcome is that she now get up at like 8 830 in the morning. Which isn't bad at all but where I was used to her waking up and 930 at the earliest and often until 1030 or sometimes 11. That was the life. And this would be fine I just need to get used to it and get her on a specific routine. :)
She now says buh bye and will say hi dad. Mostly she says these things on her own free will and not when prompted but it's something. And this girl LOVES to Dance!!! :) It's so cute! Payden and I absolutely love watching her. She mimics things really really well to down to actions or sounds or words we say. With words she just makes the sound of the tone we were using and the pitch. It's funny. :) We are so in love with our little girl and each day in an adventure watching her learn and grow!

1 Year Old!

Here are the pictures from Braylie's one year old photo session. She was pretty good. Not that happy though and just wanted to play instead of sit still. Overall she was good and I am so happy with how the photos turned out!!! Her hair drives me crazy with some of the headbands but its my fault for seeing it during the session and thinking it wouldn't be that bad and not fixing it. Oh well. haha

These are my favs of each outfit :) ENJOY!
I really hate how slow uploading pics is on blogger so...
To view them all go here.

Always learning!!!

Last Saturday night Braylie learned how to drink out of a straw!!! I know this is kinda lame as far a milestones but we were pretty excited that she can do it now. It's not perfected yet... she leaks fluid when she swallows about 50% of the time but its a start. :)

AND... she will now drink her whole milk without flavoring it with chocolate or strawberry nesquik. That's so nice too! :)

The things you get excited about as a mother... haha

I'll try and put the picture up of this last weekend soon!

This weekend we are going to palisades with Payden's family and then heading straight to my parents for a week before they head off to Alaska. I'm so excited to have time to spend with Payden and our families! Should be a great vaca with a lot of boating with both fams! I can't wait!

We've got a WALKER!!!!

Today Payden and I were just talking in the living room and Bray was playing on the floor and just stands up and is playing with her toy completely unsupported. She sits down and repeats two more times. Payden and I are both like... "Braylie you could so walk! What's your problem? Let's practice!" So we get on opposite ends and start calling to her and see if she will do it and all of a sudden she just TAKES OFF! And of course we get SUPER UPER EXCITED and start getting all motivating to her and praising her and continue to have her practice. Soon it wasn't practice at all and she just started doing!!! :) She is such a sweet little girl and is so much fun! We were SO proud of her at that moment and were so filled with love and joy! Payden and I both are pretty smitten with that cute little thing. Here's the best part though... THE VIDEOS! :)
Bear with us in the background... it's just a moment of proud parents! ;)

New Words

Braylie started saying Dada really clearly the other night! It is so cute and Payden absolutely loves it! :) She has said mama for a long time and started saying it a lot more lately and then she started saying Dada all on her own! We are so proud of her! :D It's fun to see her starting to try and communicate. Some things she is catching on to are:
Puppy: vhpaaa vhpaa vhpaa
Quack Quack for her Ducky: ya ya ya yaa yaa
Grandpa: paapa
"singing": ahahaaaaa ahhaaaa yaahhhaaaaaha ahhahaaaa

And that's about it but we are so proud of her! :)

Also she is showing more signs of wanting to walk. She pulled herself up today and let go of my leg which she was holding onto for balance and just stood there all on her own for like 5 seconds! 5 seconds doesn't seem like a lot but it is for her. It's crazy to see her stand all by herself in the middle of the floor like that. It makes her look like such a big girl! :) Today we went to Porter Park and she walked two of it's four sides just holding onto my hand!!! She acted exhausted afterward haha but she did awesome! :) Hopefully it'll happen within the next month before HER 1ST BIRTHDAY!!!! I can't wait!
Mama loves you Bray <3
