Chillin' With Dad

Brynlee is the most chill baby I've ever seen. Both of our other kids had to be walked around the house or rocked whenever they were awake. I remember walking around with Brayden until 5am the first couple weeks after he was born. Brooklyn wasn't as bad, but still had to always be moving around (in hindsight they both ended up having really bad heartburn and reflux, so that could have something to do with it.) Brynlee is a completely different story. She doesn't make a sound, first of all. I don't think I've ever heard her cry. The first two nights she was up ALL night, but all I had to do was lay her next to me (I'm on a queen mattress by myself upstairs while Josh is downstairs with the 2 other kids). We just lay by each other and talk, look around, and she'll nurse. I drift in and out of sleep while she just hangs out wherever I put her - the bassinet, the bouncer, the swing...doesn't matter. I still can't believe how low-maintenance she is. I'm always putting her in her bassinet throughout the day thinking she's asleep, then I'll go check on her 20 minutes later and she's just looking around! Thank you Brynlee for being so stress free. We LOVE your sweet spirit in our home. Her she is chillin' with her daddy:
