Toothy #2

We have toothy #2 coming in right beside toothy #1. Both little teeth are on the bottom and they are the front two. She is just tickled with her little teeth and she smiled and let me see them this morning. Then when Nanny arrived she was back on lock down. It is hilarious. I told her she did not have to show her toothies to any one but me! She just laughs.

She went to school today with Nanny to visit Aunt Lindy’s class. Mama said that every time someone would talk she would fake cough to get their attention. She is such a ham!

She had some mac-n-cheese and peas the other night for dinner.

We just heard from Emily and she is the PROUD winner of a rabbit! She won a rabbit tonight at the Franklin County Fair. She had to throw a ball in a cup while the cup floated in water and got it on the second try!!

9 Months Old!!

Well, we had our 9 month follow up yesterday. Brylee Taite is 17 lbs 8oz and 27.5 inches long. She is right in track with her development. She got one shot and while she was crying she sounded just like her Uncle E when he makes his Chewbacca sound. It was kinda funny to hear that because she never cries like that any other time. She was a real trooper and was fine in just a couple of minutes. Her next visit is Dec. 4th and she will be 1 year old! My little girl is growing so fast.

Guess I better start planning for her very 1st Birthday Party soon! I think it will be Backyardigan themed. She absolutely loves them. She gets so excited when she hears the intro song that she stops whatever she is doing and starts waving her hands in the air and talking along with them. She loves music in every form and has recently starting singing along with Pablo the Backyardigan. She listens to the CD in the car and has a little Pablo doll that goes with us and a singing Pablo for the floor. She loves them and can’t seem to get enough of them. It is precious.


Last night was her very first night to sleep without her Paci. She normally does not use it during the day, but likes to have it at nighttime. She did really well and only woke up twice wanting it. So say a little prayer that she continues like this.

Gramps is home and doing better. We sent some food over this morning for him to munch on. Pot roast, fried okra, beans, and cornbread. YUM YUM!

Have a great weekend! Love ya.

It's Been a While........

Well I know it has been a while, but we have been very busy keeping up with our little 9 month old. She is crawling and in to everything. She tries so hard to get away from us and get to the dog food bowl. Some days she just wants to put her hand in the water bowl and others she is ready to try out some dog food. Luckily we have gotten it away from her so far. She has banged her head on everything imaginable and is terrifying me. Here is her last little boo boo from the recliner at Mama’s. She was climbing up it and then appeared to be backing away when all of the sudden she just plowed right in to it. She just cried and cried.

Emily was with us this weekend and we went to watch Uncle Chance play football Friday night at Central. The girls really enjoyed the game and loved the band. We also went to the Chuck with Jen, Molly, Eric, and Grandma on Saturday. We all had a good time. Brylee decided to see how far back she could shove the crust down her throat and ended up gagging herself which about gave me a heart attack. So needless to say, she is no longer aloud to suck on the crust at the Chuck.

We headed to the park yesterday so Emily could ride her bike and Brylee could have a wagon ride. Emily was coming down the top of the hill on the nature trail and just barely missed two trees when her bike took an off road adventure. We can laugh about it now, but I tell you, I still don’t know how in the world she missed those trees.

My grandfather is in the hospital with kidney problems, so please keep him in your prayers. We headed up to see him after dropping Emily off. We visited with Gramps and Aunt Sherri for a little while and Aunt Sherri found it…

Brylee Taite Reese has her very first TOOTH!!!! YAY YAY – I am SOOOOOO excited! My little girl is growing up so fast. Who would have thought that a little tooth could become the highlight of your day! My girls are such a blessing!

We are also preparing for Lindy and Gregg’s wedding Sept. 27th and the first visit to hear the heartbeat on the 16th. Her life will be changed forever soon, and it is the best change in the world!

Please keep us in your prayers – Love Ya!
