professional pictures

We had professional pictures taken of Bryn when she was one week old. She wasn't very cooperative at first but we finally got some good ones. Thanks Melody for the great memories!

Sleeping is my favorite

In the season of Buddy the Elf where smiling is his favorite (I haven't caught a gas bubble smile on camera yet) I do think Bryn's favorite is sleeping.  She'll sleep just about anywhere!
In her seat
with her dad and her dog
but waking up is NOT my favorite!

Like Mother Like Daughter

Bryn just after being born and me just after being born.  Bryn seems to have my eyes, nose and hair (even though you cannot see it under the hat) and Brian's mouth and chin.  Let's see whose temperament and attitude she gets!

Welcome Bryn!

I woke up at 2am, got to the hospital at 4:15am and was already dilated to 9cm.  After less than 30 minutes of pushing, Bryn was born at 5:27am.


Bryn Leahy (pronounced lay-he) loved to be wrapped up like a burrito.  We loved the little feet imprints in the bottom of the blanket!


We brought her home (in the same outfit I was brought home from the hospital in 28 years ago) and we let Marley meet her.  He was very interested in her new baby smell.  Marley has been a great dog ever since and loves to give Bryn a good morning kiss each day.



She loves to have her hands by her face, loves to be held, is a good eater and sleeper so far, looks like both mom and dad, and I cannot believe that she is mine!
