Gardners Village

Every year we go to Gardners Village to see the witches. I was so excited this year to be able to bring Brinklee. I dressed her in her cute Halloween outfit and we went down with my parents and sisters. Brink was spoiled by her Papa who got her some lace leggings and her Nana who got her some cute Halloween socks. We walked around the village and went to the quilt store for some cute new projects. We had so much fun and are looking forward to it next year!!

Brinklee at 3 months

My sweet girl is now three months old (well a couple weeks ago)!! She is getting way too big too fast! She is such a sweetheart and we love her so much!! At 3 months she is:
*Eating 4-6 ounces of formula every 3 hours
*Wearing size 1/2 diapers and size 3-6 month clothes
* Rolls over from her back to her belly but then is pissed that she is on her belly
*Coos and talks all the time!
*Sleeps from about 9pm until 7 or 8am in the morning! (LOVE that!!) 
*Takes little half hour cap naps during the day and once in awhile takes a couple hour nap but not often
*Spends Wednesdays with Nana Thornley, any other day during the week with Aunt Darcie and the weekends with dad.
*Is super happy during the morning and gets more upset at night.
*Loves watching Dora the explorer and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse
*Is losing her hair and it is getting lighter
She is the best baby and we love having her!!

Brinklee's blessing day

Yesterday October 14 brinklee was blessed in our church by her dad! There were four other babies blessed that day but brink was the only girl! Jared gave her an amazing blessing! She was supported by so much family and friends!! My uncle Eric said he sneaked a peek at her during the blessing and he said he felt that she was looking at each and everyone in the circle. She's such an observant baby that I wouldn't doubt it!! My mom made her blessing dress and it turned out so gorgeous!! She brought back Italian lace from Italy this summer and that's what it was made out of! We had lunch after at grandma and grandpa stokes. It was such a beautiful day and we are so blessed to have beautiful brinklee in our lives!!
