Brenna Jay


Just this week we went back to Victoria Kelly's to go over the pictures she took of our Brenna Jay. She always does a fabulous job putting the pictures with music as a slideshow presentation- My heart just filled up with love for my little girl... I really can't believe she is mine and I have a wonderful almost 4 yr. old and a loving husband and I was just so overwhelmed with gratitude. Even though sometimes I ask myself "Is this all that life is?" It is moments like these that make everything worthwhile and puts things into perspective. At the end I looked over and Neal needed a tissue :)

We are geniuses

So today Laney doesn't want to eat her dinner- we were having a pot-pie type of meal with biscuits on top.. ya know lots of veggies. Well, I was going over the sam- I- am schpiel I give her when she doesn't want to try something new...finally she out and out declares " I want to eat junk food!" So me and Neal start eating, making faces and noises like the food is so delicious and then add..."ummm this vanilla ice cream is so good" ..."oh and this bite is a hershey kiss swirl with marshmallows on top"..."this bite of frosting with sugar sprinkles is scrumptious!" It worked like a charm and she would chime in "that is my FAVORITE!" I couldn't believe she ate most of her plate.. maybe it will work a couple times more :)
