Miss Pretty Princess!

Bryn sure acts like a "pretty princess". She loves dresses, to twirl and dance in them. She loves purses, phones, (loud) princess high heel shoes, her Minnie Mouse pajama dress, earrings, nail polish, you name it, she loves it! I have even walked into my room and she is rubbing Darrin's dresser saying it was "Sooo pretty!" She also has her little girly voice to go with it! A lot of times when she is talking to us, she will also tilt her head to one side or go back and forth! It is pretty funny!
It is fun to watch Bryn learn new things. She can sing her ABC's, she can count to 14, she knows most of her colors (red is mainly the last color she has a hard time with. She even knows black, brown, and white before red!!) Bryn still isn't 100% potty trained but we are still working on it and most days, she does really good! We finally bought her pull-ups(which are her new underwear for now,just in case she has an accident) but she loves them and rarely has an accident now.

As some of you may know, we had a scary incident with Bryn last month. On August 23rd, Bryn started to get a fever in the evening. I took her temperature and it was 102.5, high but not extreme high. I gave her tylenol and we sat on the couch watching a show on the computer. About 15 minutes after giving her meds, I looked over at her on the couch and her eyes were rolling up into her head. So I started saying her name and then I noticed she was turning blue. Scariest moment of my life. I hurried and put her on the floor, called 911, starting breathing in her mouth, yelled for Isaac to go grab the neighbor, and tried keeping Jordyn from going out the front door! It was crazy! She finally stopped turning blue when the neighbors showed up but she was still really pale and very out of it. We kept trying to get her to focus on us and keeping her awake till the paramedics came. (When you are in a scary situations like this one, it seems like the paramedics take forever to get there. They didn't come fast enough! That is how I felt!) She was doing better but the guys thought we should still get her checked in the ER so the neighbor drove us to Darrin's hospital where Darrin met us at the ER. They gave her an IV to get fluids in her and gave her meds for her fever. They figured it was some sort of febrile seizure. It was a long night but Bryn was sure a trooper. She barely cried when getting the IV put in her. And of course, she loved that they wrapped it in pink! She was very cute with all the doctors and nurses helping us. It was the scariest night of my life. When she was blue, lying on the floor not responding to me, I thought, "We can't lose our Bryn." It was very sad. I didn't know what was happening to her. I have never been around or seen someone have a seizure and thought someone always shook when they had a seizure. I see now why people are right when they say it is good not to panic when calling 911, but man is it sure hard not to panic when something like this happens. Thank goodness Bryn is perfectly fine now, we just have to watch her if she gets a fever of at least 100 degrees and start giving her meds.
(Sorry that was a long story, I wanted to tell the whole story because I am also putting this in her book.)

Bryn is such a happy little girl(except when fighting with her brother, which she can pinch pretty hard!) Bryn is also a good big sister(except when she is bugging Jordyn! haha She has her moments!) Bryn was eating breakfast this morning and of course, there was Jordyn trying to get food from her. So Bryn would take a bite of her food and then give Jordyn a bite. It was sweet!




I was thinking earlier today at how fast Bryn is growing up. It is kind of sad. She is at such a cute age.
Darrin will always ask Bryn, "Who's baby are you?" And Bryn will always reply, "Daddy's baby!"
We love our pretty girl Bryn!
