a week of milestones!

Milestone #1 of the week: Outgrew the baby bathtub and graduated to the real tub! Brynley used the baby bathtub so much longer than my other two!

She LOVES taking a bath like a big girl! Benson and Bailey were pretty impressed by it too!

#2: Prehensiled at ball

(grabbed it with both feet and hands, and mouth too!)! Again, Bailey was VERY impressed by this.

#3: Just about outgrown the swing

(which has been SO wonderful to have, THANKS, BRI!). This, I'm pretty sad about. Bryn loves this swing and I have it in my kitchen so she can hangout while I cook and while we eat. But this week Bryn has become so strong that she does "baby pilates"/"baby crunches" and tries to sit up in it, making her head and upper body almost flop out of the seat! YIKES! This picture of her really reminded me of Bailey, for so many reasons. First, she's wearing one of Bay's old dresses and shoes. Second, she is about to flop out of the swing like Bay used to do. Third, she's holding a dog (which Bailey was SO excited about!). Guh L., do you remember how tiny she was in the swing when we brought her home? We joked about how she was too little to even strap in it, we just kind of set her on top. Sniff!

#4: Tried out her new Exersaucer. Brynley got this cute, pink exersaucer for Christmas from Guh and Papa W. We had an old one that was a hand-me-down, and now about 12 years old and missing many parts. This one is AWESOME and cute. It has so many cool and fun things on it. Best of all, she LOVES it. (although, she is still so tiny that her feet dangle about 2 inches from the base!) Notice her hair, or lack of??? It's so sad, it's all falling out. Where she lies in her crib/carseat/bouncyseat looks like a cat has been lying there, with all the hair she rubs out and leaves behind. :(

Oh, and Bryn is not the only one who LOVES the new Exersaucer. Again, Bailey and Benson were very interested/impressed/excited about this new milestone. Bailey was just too big to fit in it though. Benson thought it was a blast and didn't want to get out of it.
