Mommy doesn't feed me fast enough!

I was feeding Brynn her rice cereal this morning, and she just kept grabbing the cup from me and trying to drink it right out of the cup rather than eating it from the spoon. It's like I just can't feed it to her fast enough! I thought it was pretty funny... here's a little clip. I was actually pretty impressed at how well she could drink it out of the measuring cup.

Fun Filled Weekend





This past weekend was filled with many fun activities which was nice for a change! And a lot of it was spent with Mer and Jeff which made it especially fun because we don't get to hang out with them as often as we would like. Here are just a few pictures. Friday night we went to the driving range, and then got some ice cream at sub zero. Then Saturday we went to Jesse's dad's and played guitar hero and dance dance revolution on Jeff's X-Box on the big screen. Very Fun! And I also threw on a picture of Brynn before church on Sunday.

Big Girl Food

It's official... Brynn has eaten "big girl food" (AKA Rice Cereal). We gave it to her for the first time two nights ago and it was a success. Most of it did end up all over her that first time, but the next morning when I tried I think the majority of it ended up in her mouth. The bib was spottless! I can't believe how quickly she is growing. She laughs and smiles so much, and is just so fun to be around. She is actually sick today (with a cold) which is sad, but that means we get to stay home from work (Brynn and I that is). I am excited to just spend the day with her at home and try to relax a little and enjoy my sweet girl!



Some Requested Pictures











I have had a special request for more pictures of Brynn, so here you have it. These are just some random pictures from the past couple of weeks. I have been so busy, that I just haven't had time to update the blog. With work, school, and Brynn, I feel like I have no free time! Yes, I am in school again, taking two classes this semester. And yes, I am done with school, and am just taking these classes for professional development hours to keep up my school counseling license. I didn't really want to do it so soon, but since this is my last semester with free tuition at UVU, I figured I should take full advantage of it! Oh, P.S. we didn't really feed Brynn chocolate cake. Jesse just put icing on her face while she was sleeping for the full effect.

TOMATOS TOMATOS TOMATOS

So yesterday I had my first experience canning tomatos from my garden. Dawn, my friend from work, came to help and we are now pros. We went through approximately 12 gallons of tomatoes, and canned about 24 quarts. Needless to say, I don't want to see another tomato for a LONG time! After 7 hours of work, I am thinking it might be more worth it to just buy a case at the Smith's caselot sale next time... but I guess the fresh ones do taste so much better!
