4 month Shots and some :)

Well Brielle survived her 4 months shots today.. She took them like a trooper only crying for a little bit after the 2nd shot.. She is doing well and the Dr has no complaints.. She is 13lbs and 12 oz and just about 25 inches long.. She is a tall little girl..
She is now eating cereal.. We started with rice and now we are onto oatmeal. She likes it a lot better.. She gets it for breakfast and at bedtime.. She eats about 1.5 tbsp.. The Dr has saod to start veggies when she is 6 months, but I think that she will start them at 5 months and some.. She is vert interested in food.. We sit her at the table with us while we eat dinner and she watched every move.
We are preparing for our trip out East.. We leave 1 week from today.. Our flight is out of Hamilton so we are staying the night before so we do not have such a long drive the day of the flight.. We are flying into Moncton and wil have a 2 hr drive to my parents house.. So it is nice to not have to rush the day of..
It is so hard to tink of what I need to pack.. For the weekend it is ok.. But for 2 weeks... OH my.. lol
Have a good week everyone :) :) :)

Unbreakable?????


So when you go to the store and purchase at set of Corell dishes you expect them to last you a lifetime, like the box explains... Even on the bottom of each dish it says break and chip proof.. We we have come to learn that this is not true.. This am while Philippe was putting the dishes away he dropped a bowl... Well the non breakable bowl is now in 250 pieces on the floor.. So much for the break, chip proof..

The past month :)

 On Monday Brielle will turn 4 months old.. She has been growing so much it is crazy.. She now can hold her head up completly by herself.. She is able to sit and support herself in the bumbo chair.. With a little added support by blankets she is able to play in her excersaucer.. She really enjoys all the toys on there..

She has moved up in size in her sleepers.. She is now wearing her 6 months as she is to long for the 3 month ones.. I am not sure of her weight as she doesn't got for her Dr's apt until the 28th, where she will recieve her 4 month shots ( oh how I dread the shots)..  

During her 3rd month she was a very busy girl.. We took her to Niagara Falls where we stayed 2 nites in the hotel.. this was a very fun visit.. We headed over the border to Buffalo NY, where we did some shopping and took her to Wegmans Market..

Her Auntie Erica and little Sebastian came to visit.. They were here for a whole week.. We did lots of shopping in Michigan and did lots of dinning out.. Not that Brielle got to enjoy the eating part.. But Sebastian did take part in the eating part when he discovered that he really enjoy refried beans in Mexicantown..

When Auntie Erica and Sebastian left we had to drive them to Toronto.. We took this as an advantage and stayed for a couple of nites.. It was to cold to venture downtown and do walking, but we did hit the mall and did lots of walking there..

About 2 weeks ago Brielle found her voice.. She no longer coos and awhss she is more of a shreaker and a growler.. She especially like to talk when we are out shopping.. She loves to "sing" with the over head music.. She can talk for up to 15min straight.. Right now she is in her crib talking to her mobile..

She is very addicted to her fingers.. She loves to suck on them all the time.. She even talks with them in her mouth..

She is now eating more.. She is up to 5oz per feeding.. Last nite I tried cereal and she like it.. It took her a couple of tries to tell if it was going to work for her.. Hopefully tonite will work as well..

She has almost mastered grabbing her feet.. She is able to grasp toys and really loves playing with her links and bumble bee on her car seat..

She has learned to go to bed at nite without Mommy having to put her to sleep.. She will go to bed and listen to music and fall asleep.. For the most part she is still up at least once a nite.. Sometimes 2 times.. And there is the odd time where she will sleep all nite.. She no longer sleeps with Mommy and Papa.. Which is a great thing..

Soon we will be getting ready for a very anticipated trip to NB to visit my family.. Everyone is very excited to meet Miss. Brielle.. She is like a superstar :)

That is all I can think of for now.. Hopefully it won't take me as long to update next time.. It is a task that I need to complete more..

Until next time xo
