bryn had her 9 month check-up not too long ago (yet slightly delayed due to hurricane sandy). she got a clean bill of health.  2 shots later and a sticker for big sister bailey, we were cleared to leave the dr's office.

THEN. she got sick. 101 degree fever for almost 4 days. she was completely out of it. so on day 4, just as her fever was breaking, i brought her back to the dr.
hooray! nothing serious, fever gone.

THEN.
bailey's nose starts to run and she gets a cough.

THEN.
i wake up with a sore throat and matt says he doesn't feel good.

NOW.
bryn's nose starts to run again.

vicious cycle of sickness.

oh well. hopefully we'll get better before we get worse.
in the meantime, here are a couple videos of the girls. the first video is of them from the monitor (supposedly napping) and the 2nd is of brynny waking up from a nice, long morning nap, waving to mommy. :-)

also, note that brynny now has 8 big teeth (4 snaggly ones on top and 4 pretty straight ones on the bottom). also, she is crawling like crazy and will probably walk soonish.

our crazy muppet costumes :-)


the trick-or-treating gang (sammy as batman, jackson as robin, evan as the UPS man, nico as dr. qt patootie, bailey as kermit and bryn as animal).


bryn really enjoyed getting, holding onto and gnawing on candy (wrappers).  she felt like a real "big girl". fun was had all around.
