Brailee is 1 Month Old!!!

Sorry this is soo late but for some reason I couldn't get my blogger to work..Pam came over today to help me and what do ya know..it works..This is going to be picture over load, I really didn't know what ones to put up here since it has been so long. If you are my friend on Facebook sorry you have seen all of these. I think that is another reason why I have been slacking is because all of my pictures are on facebook too.
This is one of my favorite pictures at the hospital. Aunt Deb is holding her. She is 1 day old here. Don't ya just want to squeeze those cheeks??
Another one of my favorite, Mike holding her, this is usually how they end up at night, both falling asleep..Her cheeks are big but in this picture they look way bigger than what they really are.

Great Grandma and Grandpa came to visit her when she was a week old, she was fussy for Grandma but fell right to sleep by Grandpa. He said that he hasn't held a baby for so long, not even his own kids, he probably held her for a good half hour. Brailee is the 56th Great Grand Child.

I Love this picture too, we all think she is going to have brown eyes now..

Everyone says she looks like Mike and Brooklyn, but this one I heard she looks like me. What do you think?


I cant believe how time flies. One month old already?? Our life hasn't really changed much except for less sleep and the house isn't as clean as what I would like it to be but I have learned to say "oh well, it will get done tomorrow." And if you know me I LOVE a clean house with nice vacuumed lines.. That doesn't happen a whole lot now. As for Brailee we think she is a good baby that loves to be held and NO ONE lets her cry much, so she gets held alot which can be quite difficult at times. And when she cries she lets it all out..She is such a good sleeper, she goes down around 10:00 and gets up any where from 3:30-5:00 and then around 8 or 9. So my nights are not that sleepless. I have been very blessed with kids that LOVE to sleep..The kids are all having a good time with her, especially Brooklyn, she is a HUGE help. She changes diapers, clothes, bathes her and feeds and burps her. This comes in very handy when I am dealing with Logan or trying to get something done. She is always trying to help with anything. She is done playing ball which was alot of fun to watch and wow alot different from last years coach pitch to the girls fast pitching. If you need some one to watch your kids she loves to play with kids too!! Jessica is busy working at the cafe 3 days a week from 6:30-3:00 and then at Berlin on Saturdays and other race days selling brochures. She is also staying busy with her friends and laying out in the sun..when its out that is!!:) Logan is going to Zeeland Christian summer school 4 days a week from 9-12. This will be so nice since he is getting bored at home and needs some structure. Mike is staying busy building and fixing race cars. He is also staying busy with the ASA travel team. We won the Rowdy Busch at Berlin on the 10th of June and then went to Indianapolis on the 13th and won their also. So he (we, the team) we very excited. Makes for a happy husband!! And as for me..well change diapers, feed kids, wash, vacuum, blog, facebook..and ya know all of the other motherly duties that I love doing. Hope you are enjoying your summer. Sorry so long but I had a lot of catching up to do..:)
