Brenna Helen Marie is SEVEN months old!

Sweet Girl,
 The doctors described you as having a lot of spunk as a newborn in the NICU...and you surely haven't lost that spunk! Yesterday at your 6-month wellness checkup, the nurse asked me to describe your demeanor and read several options, like "calm, content, fussy, etc." I asked her, "is sassy on that list?" Because you are one sassy little lady!
Sassy face, anyone? :)

You know what you like and what you don't like, and you let us know it too :) You are happiest when the whole family is home together, playing and relaxing in the living room. There is a noticeable difference in your mood when everyone is around - you are just more content.


You have become quite the mommy and daddy's girl. Even the grandmas have to work hard to win your affection these days. You are always aware of who is who, and you know when someone other than mommy or daddy is holding you. And usually you are none too pleased!


You finally don't mind the car seat anymore - thankfully!! You also love playing with toys in your bumbo seat and reaching for the toys hanging in your car seat. Hands are a major obsession for you now. You love to try to grasp at our fingers or watch us open and close our hands. And if we snap our fingers...it just blows your mind :)

You take in everything and are always so aware of what is going on around you. You seem to have excellent hearing despite all of the skin in your ears. You love to be talked to, and if you feel like you're being ignored in the conversation, you get mad! You're definitely a social girl!
Happy 7 months to my baby girl!! We love you so much!

  2. Sassy, spunky, and yes, absolutely adorable! This chicklet has so much personality and I can't even guess how many people are in love with her (and your entire family!) Although I know there are days that are tough or frustrating or tiring, you are an awesome mom, Courtney. Connor and Brenna are blessed to have wonderful parents and we are blessed to be able to watch and Brenna's (and also Connor's) progress. You continue to be in my prayers. Love and hugs, Donna
