Home.

I love how gorgeous my family's house and property is during the fall. I have definitely missed it! No matter where Alan and I end up, home will always be where mom and dad are. I know it's weird, but I am such a home person. I am definitely not one to like change. I adjust eventually...BUT, it's still hard. I love home, and I have missed this valley sooo much.


Brittney has learned to make a new horrid noise! It sounds like she's in pain, but the thing is, she just wants attention. She has finally learned that all she has to do is scream annoyingly and someone will pick her up. Haha, it's sooo cute though. She is talking a lot now too. I have been trying to get video recordings of her growing and making milestones. It's amazing how fast they grow!


Tonight during bath she about gave me a heartattack! I was soaping her up and she slipped and went head/face first into the water and hit her head on the bottom of the sink. I instantly grabbed her soooo fast and brought her out of the water and was freaking out. She didn't cough or cry and I was sooooo worried! I didn't know what to do. I called mom into the kitchen to help and was like, MOMMMM!!! Help!!! Finally she coughed a little, eyes watering, and then started to cry. Man, it was terrifying. I've decided that's just one of those rights of passages that us as mom's go through. Man, I was soooo happy she was fine! But man oh man I never want to go through that again!


Each day as I watch her grow and dress her in other clothes, she looks a lot like my old pictures. It kinda makes me sad and happy at the same time. I love her soooo much!! But yes, sometimes she looks exactly like me. Having her kinda makes me realize that I want to know more about my past, but I don't know. I still don't think that I am quite ready for that journey yet. I have some other things to work out before I try and tackle that. Haha. But don't we all?


Anyhow, I am going to get some more food, I am finally hungry again. I wasn't feeling well and couldn't really eat, but now I'm starving! Anyhow, I love you all much! Have a good night!!! xoxo
