Six Month Checkup and then some

So last week we took our bi-monthly trip to costco. We always strap Bryell up in the belly carrier because she really doesn't like sitting in her carseat for that long. Jeffrey and I had split so he could backtrack and go get something we had missed. I waited about five minutes and then wondered what had taken him so long so backtracked to find him. He was standing in an aisle talking to an older women. As I walked over there I hear Jeffrey saying 'and this is her mother...' the lady looked at me and said, 'I can definitely see that- you're daughter is just beautiful.' She had stopped Jeff and was just going on and on about Bryell. Her daughter was there and was telling her mother that it was time they let us get back to shopping. The lady was tearing up telling us how beautiful Bryell was. It was the sweetest thing ever.




The school had their Halloween parties at school yesterday so we took Bryell with us. I was not technically working so came up with her and had Cassie watch her when we were busy. Here she is watching the magic show with Jeffrey.



At my class party the students wrapped Janessa and I up like mummies. It was a blast!




We took Bryell to her six month appointment yesterday. Dr. Starr told us that she was growing and developing on track. He said he saw that her gums were swollen and was pretty sure she was beginning to teethe. She was 27 inches long and weighed 15 pounds, 12 ounces. Her first shot this time did not even phase her but she did cry on the last two.

Aysha and Elise are spending the weekend with us. They are such sweet girls. They are also really good with Bryell. You can tell Bryell likes them- they get lots of smiles! We made playdough last night and then created masterpieces with it! We did some painting, did monster mashups and watched Firehouse Dog, which is a really cute movie.
