7 months and counting!

We had a nice weekend. Saturday morning we ran our 6 miles and I was so proud of myself, I ran the whole way without stopping. I didn't know if I would be able to do it because it seemed as if I was a mile behind of where I really needed to be, but I guess it was pure determination that got me through. It is so nice training with the group here in The Haute because they have coaches that run with you that encourage you the whole way, Josh is at the very front of the group so he is no help back where I am, so it is nice to have the coaches along the way.

My parents came up Saturday afternoon. The plan was for them to babysit while Josh and I went out to dinner for Valentine's Day, but we both decided we didn't want to fight the crowds at places( I know we are fun) so we just stayed in and all cooked dinner. It was nice to visit, I know they were only gone for a week but it had been two weeks since they had seen Brynn and since they hadn't been in the US I wasn't able to talk to them that whole time so it was nice to catch up.

Sunday we went to church. Brynn was flirting with the boys sitting behind us, I already think we are going to have our hands full with her and the boys. She always seems to flirt with them. I have no idea where she gets that from. Then Sunday afternoon I hosted a baby shower for one of my co-workers. I work with mostly women and we all seem to get along so well so it is nice to hang out together away from work sometimes. It was alot of fun having people over to the house, I love cooking and getting things ready for things like that.

I took Brynn to the doctor today just to make sure she didn't have an ear infection because she has been so congested and pulling at her ears. Everything with that was fine, but she does have some eczema and then the doctor noticed that she tilts her head to one side alot, which I had noticed before too. I can't spell what she called it, but basically the muscles in her neck are stronger on one side than the other and so that is why her head tilts. So we have to go to some physical therapy to try and work through it. She will go for an evaluation on March 10th and then we will know more from there. She did weight 18 lbs 4 ounces so that was a big gain from a month ago. The doctor said 6 months is the chubby stage, she doesn't seem chubby to me but considering she gained almost 2 lbs in a month, I think she does have more chubb than I am admitting.

She is still crawling all over the place and now pulling herself up on the stairs and furniture. She definitely thinks she is hot stuff. We have still been going to music classes on Tuesday mornings which she loves and I enjoy visiting with the other moms, so it is nice for both of us.
