Brylee's Dedication

Sunday was Brylee's dedication, it turned out to be a great day, besides all the snow that came! I know that Bryan and I made the right decision to have Brylee dedicated.
If you don't know what a dedication is. Its a brief ceremony in which the parents make a commitment before the Lord to submit a child to God’s will and to raise that child according to God’s Word and God’s ways. The parents responsibilities in a Dedication are to making a promise to the Lord to do everything within their power to raise the child in a godly way, and prayerfully until the child can make a decision on her own to follow God. The parents who make this vow of commitment are instructed to raise the child in the ways of God, such as His values, and His principles. Some of the responsibilities include teaching the child in God’s Word, demonstrating an example of godliness, disciplining according to God’s ways, and praying earnestly for the child.

I hope this makes it a little bit easier for those of you that weren't entirely clear.

Along with Brylee's dedication Bryan and I had to chose a Life Verse that Brylee can use to guide her through her life.
Bryan and I chose 1 Corinthians 13: 4-7
"Love is patient & kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures though every circumstance."

Bryan and I really wanted to let everyone that came know that we really appreciate you coming on Brylee and our special day! It was really nice to have all of our family there with us! Thank you for all your support!!! It really meant a lot to us!

Here are some pictures of the day!

Brylee's 2 month Check up!


Brylee went to the Doctor on Monday for her 2 month Check up, it was soo sad she had to get 4 shots! She got one oral, 2 in one thigh and 1 in her other thigh. She did a lot better then I thought she would, I gave her Tylenol before we went and it seemed to work. But, it was still hard to see her on the table crying and I couldn't do a thing about it.

The doctor said that she looks great and he also congratulated me on keeping her well feed! LOL

Brylee now weighs a BIG whopping
13 lbs. 11oz!!!
I was in shock when I saw the scale! I told the nurse that I thought that she weighed no more then 13 lbs. The nurse told me to try again, "ummm... how about 14 lbs."

Anyways here are Brylee's totals:

At 2 months:
Head: 39.2 cm 49%
Length: 23.5 in 78%
Weight: 13 lb 11 oz 91%
At 1 month:

At 2 weeks old:

Length: 22 in 93%
Weight: 9lb 2 oz 72%

At 1 week old:

St. Patricks Day

I can't believe how quick March has come and gone!!!
Last week was St. Patricks Day and so I decided that Brylee needed to wear a cute GREEN outfit, to keep up with Holiday tradition.
Also, I knew that Me-ma would be upset if I didn't get a cute picture with Brylee and the bib that she got her!

Here are a few pictures of her!

Brylee was having a rough day!

We still don't really know what her problem was!
(I guess it's just a Girl Thing)

Brylee at 2 months

Brylee seems to keep getting bigger in a Blink of a eye!


I know I say that in every blog, but I really can't believe that my little girl is getting so big. I cannot believe that she is now 2 months old!


Brylee is now smiling and cooing a lot more and her little personality is definitely starting to show! Her little smile just makes my heart melt, and I can help but smile back at her. She truly is the best thing that I have ever did!


Her is a little video of her playing with her rattle.


(Look at all those rolls!!!)
lol



And

I couldn't help but put this little video of her and her daddy on here too!


Brylee and her daddy definitely have a bond! They are soo cute together!



Sorry that we haven't posted in a while!


Things have just gotten soo crazy since I went back to work, I'll try to be better!
