4 Months in 4 Points or Less

I know that I haven’t written in a while- I was in school and then doing VBS. I guess my lack of writing is more of a testament to my busy life than anything else.

So what do you all need to know now?

1. Britanny has 4 (yes, count them- two top, two bottom) teeth. She does this really cute thing where she sucks in her bottom lip and looks like a beaver! If you just look at her top teeth you think “Boy, will she ever be needing some braces one day”… I’m trying to keep an open mind by thinking that this gap will inevitably get smaller as she gets more teeth to push them together. While she was teething I used to let her chew on a freezie while I had one- it was more so that I could have an excuse to have a freezie than anything. This has abruptly come to an end, since Aaron let her eat a freezie one night and she chewed a hole right in the bottom. Needless to say she was quickly covered in red juice.
2. Britanny is a monkey. She has mastered the ambitious art of crawling and is moving onto standing. I know that I have just a few months before I have an Olympic runner on my hands. Britanny seems to have a crazy sense of everything that is absolutely not acceptable for her to play with- and goes ahead and tries to get each and every one of them. We are at the trailer right now and she keeps trying to get the pair of slippers by the door. Every time they get moved or she does she goes straight for them. Its like everything electrical has a sign on it that says “here Britanny, play with meeeeeeeeeee”. Crawling Britanny could be called “trying to get into everything electrical” baby.
3. Britanny loves to eat. If she wasn’t so tall she would be the fattest kid around. Seriously, this cute little girl can eat like a horse (at least, a horse at her age). She can eat almost a whole jar of baby food in one sitting! That may not seem like a lot, but believe me, when your feeding her one spoonful at a time it is. She basically enters a baby food eating contest every time she opens her mouth.
4. 4. Britanny is as mischievous as both her parents combined, and she knows it. Every time she is crawling towards the dogs and you call her name, she slyly looks back at you, almost daring you to do anything about her actions. She knows she’s cute and she uses it to her advantage. If she is being bad, all she has to do is spit out a “dada” or a “mama” and you instantly melt. Try being mad at a baby who is smiling at you all the time. It’s practically impossible!

So this is the end of my Britanny catch-up. I hope to write more often- lord knows I have enough to write about. Not a minute goes by in our household without some sort of drama going on.

Until then, farewell. Or as B would say: “na-na-da-da-da-da-ya”
