Brynnah was so excited that she got to feed Gwyn "All by herself"

Gwyn's Blessing

We blessed miss Gwyneth Anne on Sunday the 12th. Ryan did a wonderful job with her blessing and we were greatful to have many family members there with us.

I just fell in love with this picture of our sweet family!

I just thought this picture of Brynnah was so special! Her cousins were here for the blessing and the girls wanted to dress up....Brynnah picked this adorable fairy dress.

Happy Halloween

Weight Gain!!!!!

I took Gwyn in for her 2 week checkup last week and to my surprise she had lost 1 lb from her birth weight! I totally freaked out and wondered what I was doing wrong. The doc. told me to bring her back in a few days later. I was breastfeeding and decided that I better make sure I was getting enough milk in. I totally wasn't. I was devastated to find out I only produce an ounce...for both sides. So, I had a decision to make..either keep breastfeeding (which Gwyn is a really LAZY eater. It would take her about an hour to nurse.) pump, and then try and get her to drink a bottle...which would consume about 2-3 hrs. Or just switch her to formula. I chose the latter. I took her back in to get weighed and she lost another ounce. I thought we really had a problem then. My mind was reverting back to thoughts of feeding tube placement. While we were at the docs. she was hungry, but of course I didn't bring anything with me. I thought we were going to be in and out. The nurse brought me some formula and a bottle to feed her. To my surprise she ate almost 4 ounces! The nipple on that bottle was a life saver! I took little miss Gwyn in today to get her weight re-checked....She gained 1 lb!!!!!! I couldn't believe it! I feel so much better knowing that she's actually getting full! Poor little thing being starved! So her weight as of today is 7 lbs 1 oz! Almost back to her birth weight!

Brynnah's Birthday Party!

We celebrated Brynnah's Birthday on Saturday the 16th. I think everyone had a great time! The theme for her party this year was "Ocean Life". I made cupcakes with fish, octupus, and shark and dolphin sprinkles! Brynnah was so excited but... not suprising...only ate a bite of her cupcake!

Of course we also had a pinata! It's a dolphin-in case you can't see it very well. Brynnah picked it out all by herself and has been asking non-stop to play with it!
Too cute right!?!

Brynnah was thrilled to wear a skirt for her Birthday Party! She asks to wear a skirt or dress every day now!
