2 1/2 year update

So its been about 2 and a half years since my last post, I thought I was pretty much done with the blog forever. I'm not! Now that I have Brylinn, I can't help but share all the funny and cute things she does. Plus this gives me a place to Journal everything for her. I am going to try to post once a week, lets see how it goes.

So a recap of the last 2 1/2 years...
1. We have lived in Utah County almost that whole time. A year and a 1/2 in a basement apartment in Highland and the past year in a condo in Orem.

2. Cody finished his Associates at LDS Business College and has been going to BYU for about a year now. He finally picked a major in communications with a minor in Portuguese.


3. He just signed to do summer sales for his 4th summer with Edge Pest Control in Denver. After the past 2 years of selling here in Utah County it's going to be quite the move. But in the mean time he is working at Security Metrics doing PCI Compliance.

4. And of course we had our baby girl, Brylinn Laraine Eddington on September 3rd 2010. She was a healthy 18 inches long and 7 pounds.



Her are some of Brylinns First!


1. For her first Halloween we were a family of Jack-O Lanterns



2. Brylinns first Christmas...
  • We read the Christmas Story in Luke and the Night before Christmas
  • We opened Christmas Jammies on Christmas Eve
  • We went and saw Santa Clause
Brylinn got a mobile for her crib, lots of clothes and hair bows, a cabbage patch doll and a lot of toys. 



This was the extent of Brylinn opening her presents. She just laid there and smiled.

Brylinn finally got to meet Grandpa Taylor

Cody and I got to go snowboarding at Brianhead while my parents watched Brylinn.

We had a really great Christmas.  Holidays are so much more fun with kids.



3. Brylinn was blessed in St. George by Cody.



It was so great to have so much family there, you could tell there was a lot of love in one room for such a little girl.


Brylinn is now 5 1/2 months. I can't believe how fast she has grown up. I took dinner to a family in my ward last night who had just had a baby and I can't believe they come out that small. Brylinn it so big now it's hard to remember when she was that tiny. She is topping the charts for both height and weight. She is the best thing that has ever happened to Cody and I. We are both so grateful for such a happy and healthy little girl in our home.
