1 1/2 Years

I can't believe that we've had Breklinn for amost a year and a half. She is getting to be so much fun. More and new things happen every day. It's all such a new adventure for us. I've never been around young children that much and being a dad has been the best experience so far that I could have ever even thought of. She's so funny, the things she picks up, the things we find her doing keep us simling and on our toes all the time. With this of course comes trying and difficult stuff as well. She's very strong willed, but the more I see babies the more I realize that all of them tend to be that way. Sometimes we are so used to just being with Brek that all the bad stuff she does makes us feel like we're bad parents. We were with our friends the other day who have a son about a month younger than Brek. It was quite refreshing to see him running around not listening to his dad, not wanting to come, not wanting to be held, and screaming when being picked up. Wow, we're not the only ones. I've never been so relieved to see 2 kids running around screaming and pushing. This picture here is of Breklinn in a common spot: The dog's water dish. She likes to take a quick swim in it every now and again. It has since gone outside.
