First of all... Now that I know what it feels like when you feel movement from a baby... I have phantom kicks ALL the time. how am I supposed to know the real thing when the time comes to be pregnant again?? Just a thought I had since I feel it and it freaks me out since there is definitely no baby in there...So weird.
Anyway.. I have a chit chatter on my hands! Her vocab is just bursting, it is crazy. She understands so much. When I ask her if she's hungry and wants dinner, she runs to the gate at the stairs to go up. Last night I asked her if she wanted a bath... And she ran over to the bathroom. She is even starting to count! Last night in her bath, I swore she grabbed the foam 9 and said "nine!". I figured it was coincidence. Brynnie does love books. We read counting books, and count a lot... Well Kelsey today heard it as well... Was counting 1-4, and 8,9,10. 9 being her favorite to say. Its not just me who heard it. She also says up as she is clawing at my legs so I hold her. It is just so crazy! I love it.
Onto the house. We got it! We were supposed to have our inspection today, but it got cancelled and rescheduled for Thursday. Just can't wait, but it will best hard once we move in, andi am going to want to have everything done and just decorate! I am so excited to have our own space and yard... And make it our own.

Happy Spring Break!
Boy... A lot has changed about Brynn since I last posted. We had her 15 month check up on Friday... Her stats are: 32.5 inches (98th%) 22.13 lbs (50th%). Her head is in the 80th % so definitely a Murphy head. She is following a nice curve, and same appx. percentile since she was born. She is right where she needs to be developmentally.
This last week was my spring break. I had one class of tests to grade, and didn't even touch them... I had way too much fun with Brynn. Last Friday, we all headed up to Duluth/ Eveleth for the weekend. We visited Dans grandma all day Saturday, and bummed around Duluth on Sunday. Monday I had. Dr. Appt, and we just hung out at home. Tuesday we went swimming with Cassie and Haylee, and her sister Carlie with the kids she nannies. It was so fun. However, Brynn is terrible at restaurants right now. Me and Cass tried going out to lunch, and it was a disaster. I had to bring my lunch home. Yikes. Wednesday Brynn and I went to the zoo. It was so nice out, and Brynn had a good time. Thursday I did some cleaning, some grocery shopping, and we hung out here. Friday Brynn had her dr appt, which included two shots, so she slept a lot, and got pretty cranky. Ever since the dr. She has had a runny nose and hasn't been sleeping so great at night. Saturday Dan, me , and Brynn just hung around here. I met my girlfriends in the morning for brunch, but other than that we had a low key day. Today for Easter, dans mom and brother came over for brunch which was nice. We then also went to my grandmas in the afternoon. We then took the pups and Brynn for a walk when we got home. I'm exhausted. Having this week off makes me that more excited for summer!
Many of you know that me and Dan have been house hunting. We had found a home in Woodbury we loved, put an offer on it, a few times, and ended up not getting it. It sucks, but we are just going to keep looking. We are actually going to go look at a house I really like tomorrow... It needs a lot more cosmetic updates, but much more in our price range, has great curb appeal, and what looks like a nice yard. We will see! I love the idea of making our house ours... But with my capstone hanging over my head, it stresses me out. I NEED to get that done, and all I will want to do is work on the house.
As far as Brynns new accomplishments, she is starting to talk so much! I can't believe what she has done even in the last week. She sings "up above the" in twinkle twinkle little star. She says: hot, all done, uh-oh, when I say ouch, she says ouch :), what's that, she waves hi and bye bye, she gives kisses and hugs when we ask her too.... And even when we don't :). She will also randomly repeat words when we ask her to say something. A couple of her favorites are purple and apple. I swear tonight, she was looking at her reflection while in the bath tub, and said "hi Brynnie". She LOVES books. She is always grabbing books, running and sitting on my lap, and asking me to read. She also loves shoes... She brings her pretty ones over to me to put on her. She is also very much a dare devil. She loves jumping off things, climbing on top of things, and just climbing in general. I really need to keep a good eye on her.
As far as food goes.... She's funny because she still isn't a huge fan of fruit! She does still love her meat. She like some veggies, like broccoli. She loves her milk. We keep trying new things with her so hopefully she will eat more fruit.
Well, back to work and reality tomorrow. I am that much more ready for summer after having a week off. Only a couple of months left. It sounds like this week is going to be quite a bit cooler... We have been so spoiled. Hopefully we will have our house soon! :)
