Sneak Peak!

Brian & his brother, Matthew, are both WONDERFUL photographers! Brian enjoys taking pictures of scenery, while Matthew's gift (or so it seems) is portraiture. We were given the opportunity to have a free family session with a local "professional" photographer...well...those didn't turn out so well and I would say she was less of a professional...needless to say I was pretty bummed! Matthew kindly agreed to take some family pictures of us and we even had a sweet friend come take some pictures of ALL of the Langhoff family while we were in Midland! These are unedited pictures that I just couldn't help but to share...I know I'll share more as soon as Matthew finishes editing them and making them perfect! THANK YOU, UNCLE MATT!

Our little model.

We were taking a picture of us kissing her cheeks and she turned and started eating me!

GORGEOUS!


24 Weeks!

Shame, shame shame....I skipped a week. I really do feel terrible about it, but I can't go back now and do anything about it. I'm just so frustrated that I can't find my camera charger and I'm having to use the video camera as a still camera and it takes cruddy picture! We're about to just pull out Brian's fancy camera to take pictures now...

The past two weeks, Brynlee Ann:
  • Spent a WHOLE DAY with Daddy while Mommy went to Waco! 
  • Took her first trip to Cabela's with Daddy on said day!! (many more of those days will be in her future with her Daddy & Granddaddy)
  • Took her first trip to Midland!! WOHOO!!
  • Was babysat for the first time by her Aunt Hildy (Great Aunt Susan/Brian's Aunt) and Aunt Allie!
  • Spent the day with Aunt April before she & Uncle Kelbs move far away :-(
This are a couple outtakes from our 24 week photoshoot...too cute not to post!

"I'm done with this lamb!"

"Falling over is way more fun than sitting up straight & pretty!"

When April came over she had black, pink, and zebra print on...Brynlee Ann loves those three together so of course she had to match Aunt April!

Granny Nanny, Brynlle Ann wore the cute zebra shoes you bought her, too!

22 Weeks!



This Week Brynlee Ann:
  • Enjoyed taking walks with Mommy in our neighborhood park
  • Enjoyed swinging at the neighborhood park at the beginning of walks with Mommy
  • Mostly just recovered from Christmas while Daddy took his first mini-mester course of seminary

5 Months!



This month, Brynlee Ann:
  • Is sleeping like a champ! Taking 3-4 naps a day and sleeping roughly 10 hours at night!
  • Is starting to eat rice cereal for breakfast & dinner -- need to get some chunk on my sweet baby girl's bones!
  • Started wearing 6 month cloths! Brynlee Ann is too long for most 3 month one-pieces & onesies, but dresses & pants work well in 3 month, still. She is SO long!
  • Is quickly outgrowing size 1 diapers - Pampers are the only size 1 that still fit! Target size 1's slide off her little tush - too cute, but not fun for cleaning up messes! 
  • Celebrated her first Christmas!
  • Moved to a new house and got her own room!
  • Rolled from her tummy to her back AND her back to her tummy!

Still Alive

We are still here...I promise! In the process of moving my camera charger was lost so I was taking picture using the video camera (which are not the best quality), and now I have misplaced my card reader! I have some posts typed up for Brynlee Ann's 5 month post and weekly posts and will publish them as soon as I can find that tiny card reader that is hiding!
