July 4th 2013

 We decided since Tim was off of on the 4th of July this year that we would host a little party.  His shift came over with their families and some of our friends as well.  We had a great time and the weather couldn't have been better.  Brecken took some of it in before crashing out and Tenley LOVED all the evening offered.

3 Months | Brecken

Yep, she is 7 months as I type this, but oh well.  I am sure the grandparents won't mind the delay.  She was still a tough cookie at this point, we were in the midst of constant screaming, but sleep was getting better by months end.  Luckily, she has a big sister who doesn't seem to mind and will love on her no matter what.

Happy 4th of July!

2 Months of Brecken

yep, just when I think I have it figured out chaos breaks looks....so still playing catch up...Despite being adorable, 2 months brought along its challenges.  Our sweet baby, if awake, was pretty much screaming...constantly.  It was hard and exhausting.  I cut dairy from my diet in an attempt to see if that was the problem.  It seemed to help a little (or looking back I think it was wishful thinking) At any rate we made it through, and today is much brighter.  At the end of the month, I would be going back to work and was pretty much dreading it.  The transition went well and we got into our grove, but those early morning wake ups for the drive to Topeka were TOUGH when you had been up during the night already.  But, life is full of choices, and we made out choice to live here vs closer to Topeka so I will stop my complaining :)

So her is 2 months in photos....

Our 1st bottle, I though she may give us a run for our money on the bottle, however, to took to it like a pro
