Brelynn Catch Up

So, I jumped ahead quite a bit with my last post, so I just wanted to stick in some pictures and commentary of Brelynn's first 8 months on Earth. She had already been to Disneyland, California Adventure, LegoLand, Sea World, The San Diego Zoo and The Wild Animal Park before she was 3 months old! What a trooper, her are some pics of her adventures so far. Enjoy!

We were all playing trekkie dress up! She's the cutest little Geordi!
He is so proud to be a big brother!!

Meeting Eeyore on Brelynn's first trip to Disneyland!


You cant really tell but this is Brelynn and Richard on the Pirates of Carribean ride, right after we got on, then they make you put away your camera.



Brelynn in her blessing dress, she is so adorable

Brandon Reas' mission farewell, she's just chillin'

Meeting her Auntie Mary for the first time, Mary was at BYU when the baby was born. As you can tell, they are both very fond of eachother.

Her first time in a swimming pool, we were at the Overson's. COry let her borrow his sun hat :-)

Her first amusement park ride, LegoLand's Story Book Boat (or something) and the next picture is a boat ride at LegoLand that takes you to see all of the awesome lego structures.


Her first 5K walk, for Parkinson's, she made it the whole way!!


Her first trip to Channel 1225, hanging out with Auntie Gen.

Brelynn's Birth










This was Brelynn when I was 10 weeks pregnant. She was comfy cozy and decided she was going to stay in and not be born on her due date, she was subsequently, forcibly removed (I was induced) on March 12th. I had a 6 hour labor and she was born at 2:36 pm!




Brelynn Renee Smith was 8 lbs 4 oz! She is my little princess.


Trenton has taken to calling her "wanga changs" but if you ever try saying it, he will tell you you are saying it wrong, there is some kind of accent he puts on the "ch", and he is very particular. To this day I do not know where he picked that name up from but it has stuck and he now calls her his little wangas.




Trenton is an amazing big brother and knows all the best tricks to keep the baby happy. He is great at sharing his toys, although some toys have been not so baby friendly, like the tiny magnetix pieces! He also shares his play tent...

Finally gonna get this party started!

Well, I am not sure how far back to start. I have been trying to get a blog up since before the baby was born. So, I guess I will go through a quick synopsis of life, up until her birth....
Richard and I were married in July of 2005. We have a son, Trenton and a daughter, Brelynn. We lived in El Cajon, California until January of 2005. Trenton loves to rock climb and Richard built him his own rock wall for his room. I have been a stay at home mom since early 2007! I love it, and cant imagine going back out to work in the crazy world. My family is my life and all of my joy comes from their happiness. So, we moved to Lakeside in January of 2008, and we are still working on moving in lol, mostly because of a large amount of construction we had to do on the house and partly because when we moved in I was 8 months pregnant. Brelynn was due March 5th 2008.....
