NewBorn Pictures by Brett Seay Photography
We were so blessed to have our pictures taken by Brett. Brett and I went to NGU together and were RA'S. She now lives in NC, and came when Bralyn was 2 weeks old to take her pictures! We got them the first of May, and were WONDERFUL!...
Here are a few of our favorites!!

May Recap
May was such a BIG Month for so many things: We had Mother's Day, Baby Dedication, Family visits, Our First Trip, A Sad Loss, and Memorial Day!
So where to begin??!! No idea!.. So I will go in order if I can remember!..
Mother's Day: Was such a special day for us, My Sweet angel is such a blessing to me, and I love every moment with her. This day was special too because it was just us 3, and Daddy did a great job of making Mommy feel so special!.. We went to church, and then all went out to Brunch as a Family! It was Bralyn's First time out to eat with just mommy and daddy, and she Slept the whole time!! :)
Here is a picture from Mother's Day!
Next was a Sweet Day! It was Baby Dedication for our Precious Bralyn!.. It was a wonderful day! My Mom and Brother came into town and got to meet her, We also had some wonderful friends that came to support us as well!.. May 15, 2011. Here are some pictures of that sweet day!
We Had our first nights alone without daddy and just Bralyn and I.. May 20-22nd! It was a sweet time with Mommy and Daughter and we did just fine, but we sure did miss him greatly!
May 23rd, was a sad day in our family. Patrick's Granny went home to be with the LORD. It was a sad day, but we also rejoice in the woman of God she was, the incredible life she lived, and the fact she is no longer in pain!. (our only regret is that she never knew or got to meet Bralyn.) We traveled on Tuesday May 24th to the Viewing in Loris, Sc. It was Bralyn's first road trip, and she did very well!
We got home, and ended May with a Wonderful Memorial Day weekend with our wonderful friends, Tim and Kris Singleton!.. (I am realizing while posting we never took one picture with them that weekend :( . )
But we got some cute ones of our little angel swimming in her pool for the weekend fun!
Here are a few pictures of that!
Our sweet baby girl also turned 2 months old in May!.. I will post update :)

1 Month Update!
Bralyn Nicole turned 1 month old on April 20, 2011. She was 9 pounds 3 oz and 21 1/2 inches long! She is getting to be such a BIG GIRL!.. We are all done with Newborn Clothes and we have entered the 0-3 month and a few 3 month clothes (from Carters). I cannot believe it.
It was very hard for mommy to pack up the newborn clothes and diapers! She is officially in all 1 diapers as well!.. I cannot believe it!! :)
Here are some pictures from our 1 month photo session with mommy!!

April Recap
April was a CRAZY month, and so busy!.. Our Sweet Angel turned 1 Month Old!! I cannot believe has fast it has all gone,and how April seems so long ago now!
Bralyn was admitted to the Hospital on April 19th, (one day before she turned a month). She had a viral infection and was running a fever. IT was the WORST thing for a parent to see their little one hurting and going through all those SHOTS and NEEDLES.. it was TERRIBLE!... She had to stay over night and I stayed with her to feed her and watch over her. I was so thankful that all the tests came back that she didn't have anything bacterial and everything was just viral and the antibiotics helped her so much! We also found out that visit that she indeed had Acid Reflux and she now is on Zantac and doing SO MUCH better! We came home on her 1 month birthday, and Mimi (patrick's mom stayed a day or so with us to help out).
My sister had come to visit on the 18th and her and Jadyn got to love and playing with Bralyn. However I hated she was sick and that the visit was ruined and cut short due to a hospital stay :( ..
But I know they will get plenty of time to catch up and play together!..
My Dad was also preaching in the area, and came by to see us as well for 2 days!
Easter then was the end of the month, and it was such a sweet day!.. We had a wonderful time at church and then she got to get all her goodies for Easter!.. She is such a big girl, and our sweet little Angel!

Nana comes to Visit
My Mom has come back to visit us and help me around the house and to let me have some sleep time!!..
WHAT A BLESSING it has been!... Bralyn turned 3 weeks old Sunday April 10th!.. She is growing so BIG!..
She now is starting to fill out and her newborn sized clothes are not all fitting her anymore. I haven't weighed her yet, but I know she is def. over 8 pounds!
My mom has been here helping us and cleaning the house, cooking some meals and getting up and helping me with her. I feed her, and mom changes her diapers, rocks her and plays with her so I can sleep, eat and shower!!... AMAZING!
** We had our FIRST OUTING with Bralyn too during her visit!.. We took her to TARGET! Yep you gotta get a little girl into the shopping pattern!!... She was so good, she loves the car seat and loves shopping already!!... We bought our sweet friend Truett a baby present and then got her first EASTER basket and goodies!!... **
I am so thankful for my mom and this week and the time she gets to spend with us! We will miss Nana lots when she leaves us this weekend :( ..

First Week Home
We had a Wonderful 1st week home!.. Patrick was off work from the Wednesday we came home until Tuesday the next week. He was such a BLESSING and HUGE help!!..
He did and still does do so many diaper changes, and he would set our timer, and keep track for me the times to feed her (every 3 hrs) , the time for both of medications etc..
He would help me get ready and things I need, due to limited mobility after surgery etc.
I AM SO BLESSED with such a WONDERFUL man who is a GREAT DADDY and HUSBAND!!
The first week was also such a Blessing to us both, due to the large amount of help we got with meals!!.. We had meals and food each night for the first week and 1/2 from our FRIENDS and CHURCH FAMILY!...
THANK YOU SO MUCH EVERYONE for the meals and company and LOVE you poured on us!! WE enjoyed so many people visiting and meeting Bralyn.
We know so many of you had children and we haven't had a chance to visit you all yet, but we cannot wait to!
(this first week added so many challenges for me as a first time mommy, and just being careful when it came to germs, protection etc!.. I don't think you ever know how you will be with something until you go through it!.. Our doctors told us how it takes the first 2 months for their little immune systems to build and how this time of year with all the colds etc and be not great for their health!.. So we have kept her inside as much as possible!!
She hasn't gone to church yet, and only her doctors so far!.. But we will soon be going and be able to let her be around other little ones etc!!... She is so little :) ...

Pediatric Appointment (March 25th)..
Because Bralyn was in such good health in the Hospital, her doctor said we didn't have to go in the next day but Friday after we got home! :)
Bralyn was 6 lb 10 oz when we left the Hospital and we were so excited that just 2 days later she was 7lb 1/2oz :)
She was in great health and was such a good little girl!!... We really like the practice we chose too!
Fuquay Pediatrics is a great doctors office and so far we are loving them!!
