On the go!

Wow Brynley has changed SO much in the last few weeks! She had her very first airplane ride last week when we went to Hawaii and she did awesome. The change in altitude didn't bother her and she slept most the time.

Here she is sprawled out using Zac's leg as a pillow...

We had such a blast this vacation! My parents and both of my sisters and their husbands were there too, so she had tons of attention all week. She absolutely loves the water, both the pool and the ocean. It was such a fun vacation and I didn't want it to end. It was nice to have my family there all week to play with Brynley so we could relax and soak in the sun!

Our little prima donna....wasn't a fan of the sand!

The biggest change for Brynley is that she started crawling last week! I can't believe how fast she is changing. She is ALL over the place now and it is so cute to see her little diaper butt crawling around! She can also clap, blow bubbles, wave, and she is very very close to pulling up to standing. She isn't a little baby anymore and when she took her first crawl I started crying. My little baby is growing up so fast already! Haha how am I supposed to send her to school if I can't keep my composure when she crawls?? Anyway, ever since we have gotten home last Sunday Brynley has had the hardest time sleeping through the night. She will start crying so I will go check on her and she will be either sitting up crying, rolling around, crawling or trying to pull herself up! Sometimes she will lay back down and then wake up 2 hours later, and sometimes she is wide awake and acts like she is ready to play. I read on babycenter.com that when they reach a milestone like crawling and pulling up on things that they practice at night sometimes, which can wake them up. But then again shes been waking up at midnight which is 8pm in Hawaii and thats when she went to bed. So, I can't decide if it is because of the time change, because she started crawling, or both! But when I check on her and she has her pudgy hands on the rail of her crib with tears in her eyes I can't help but pick her up and cuddle her in our bed :) I'm hoping this is a phase, because I don't think I've gotten more than 4 hours of straight sleep in a looooong time! Every now and then I'll get lucky, but for the most part she wakes me up every couple hours! She has been such a fun part of our family and I am so excited to see her reach more milestones...she just grows too dang fast!
