Our very own Beanie Baby



We have our very own beanie baby! Brynlyn's crib and set up is in our bedroom. And our room is the coldest room in the house. It gets very chilly at night, so we have started putting on this pink knit hat to keep Brynlyn's head warm. I can't say that she actually likes it and it is usually off of her head by the morning. But she looks so cute in it that I couldn't resist a photo shoot.

Bryn is doing great. Last week she received her 3rd Synagis shot (to prevent RSV). She also received her 4 month immunization shots. She is weighing in at 12lbs. 12oz. She is 23 3/4 in. long. She is charting on the 11th percentile for weight and 10th percentile for height. Hey, she may be small, but atleast she's proportionate! ha ha They say she'll have substantial weight gain following her reconstructive surgery.

She is so happy pretty much most of the time and is generally good natured. She still sleeps so much each day. She gets tired really easily so her wake times are fairly short. She is doing well, so far so good. We are still very cautious about taking her anywhere. She gets to go to DR appointments and that's it. This is hopefully to prevent any wintertime sickness.

We're having a fun time with her, just trying to enjoy and take it day by day. That's the latest.

Cutest beanie baby ever! You're so amazing! It is inspiring to read Brynlyn's blog, and to see all of the amazing things you are doing with your family, and how you are coping. You are a good example to me. BTW, your family pics are beautiful.--Jenn B.

She looks so cute! Hard to believe that she's still only 12 pounds! She's a fighter for sure!
