I've been having so much fun lately!  I've taken three trips up to Iowa and have been able to meet almost all of my family members!  I feel so loved!  I love getting to meet everyone and especially enjoyed playing with my cousins who are just a little older than I am.  Plus, I heard some other really great news...  I'm getting another cousin!  My Aunt Katie and Uncle Eric are expecting my cousin in early January!  Yeah!  Congrats Katie and Eric!  I'm super excited!

Since I last wrote Mom went back to work and I've been hanging out with Dad during the days.  I LOVE being with my Dad and we have a lot of fun together.  We spend time running errands, shopping (for me of course), playing with the neighbors, or just sitting outside when it's nice.  Starting next week I'm going to go to day care!  Mom has been talking to me about it, but I'm not sure what to think.  The day care is right down the street in another lady's house.  She seems pretty nice and I think I'll like being with a few other kids during the day.

Other big news is that I'm able to keep my head up all on my own!  Not for a long time, but I'm able to do it and I'm pretty proud of that!  I get to sit in a special chair all by myself!  I love it!  I also try to hold my bottle all the time, but usually just end up pushing it out of my mouth, which doesn't make me too happy.  And I'm working really really hard at rolling over.  I rolled over once just yesterday and Dad couldn't have been more proud of me!  I got lots of hugs and kisses after all that work. :)  I'm going to keep working at it so I can show it to Mom and hopefully get it on video.

Love you much and be sure to check out all my new pictures!  Love, Brie
