A Brighton Update

In case anyone is wondering, the tragedy of no bink is getting a little better. Nap time is a battle, but bed time has been easy the last little while. Bri is still getting up in the 5's though, which is killing us! The last couple of days we have brought a couple of snacks upstairs the night before, along with some favorite toys and had Bri just play and snack upstairs for an hour or so when she gets up. It has worked pretty well. Don can sleep through anything so he thinks it's great, but when she's running around our room jabbering and singing, I just can't sleep. I SO much hope that she goes back to sleeping till 7:00 one of these days!
Anyway, here are a few pics from the week...
Our happy little lady

Look everybody, no hands!

After weeks of begging "outside" from Bri, we finally took her out for a stroll around the neighborhood. It was freezing cold, but I swear she could care less. She was just so thrilled to be able to run around outside for a little while. I can't wait for good weather!


Naps. Although Brighton isn't too thrilled about the real thing, she thinks playing nap with her babies is super duper fun and she loves to do it several times a day.



Pickles and salsa anyone? That's right, I said pickles and salsa. This is Bri's new favorite combo. She thought this one up on her own and it has become her new favorite snack. She asks for it everyday. I am all for pickles and I am all for salsa, but together...yuck! Bri gives yum yum commentary everyday during pickles and salsa time, but I just can't get myself to give it a try.

Ashley, Brighton is adorable! She looks so much like you. How funny that she likes salsa and pickles. She must be one tough girl. My stomach couldn't handle it (let alone my taste buds)!

Okay, somehow I just deleted my comment so here it goes again...Pickles and salsa is pretty gross. Probably as gross as Coopers new favorite combo of dipping his pieces of peanut butter and jelly sandwich into his milk before he eats them. He loves that soggy bread! Yuck!

Pickles and Salsa, huh? Are we sure that she's not pregnant? Might want to keep that girl on a shorter leash...
