It's been a long time!!!

Sorry everyone, it's been quite a long time since I've posted on here...so I am not sure who even reads this anymore. A lot has happened since my March post so a quick update includes: Brielle is walking!(thanks to her friend Adelyn:), she now has 11 teeth and a the 12th on the way, she is desperately trying to say a lot of words and Jim and I can barely keep up with her!!
We have kept very busy during the summer so far but we have still managed to squeeze in a few relaxing days to lay low. Brielle's birthday party went pretty good and it was really nice to see everyone. A few people who hadn't seen her in a few months didn't recognize her because she was running around the place. They weren't expecting that! She really destroyed her cake! It was quite the mess to clean up so I guess it was a good thing that the party was outside! This past weekend we visited with Jim's aunt Mickey and her daughter Aurielle. They live on a lake, so Jim and I helped rake out the beach, took the canoe out for a while and brought Brielle swimming a few times. She is such an outdoor baby, so she had a blast out there.
One of the other things I am keeping busy with is redecorating our bedroom. It's the only room in the house that hasn't had much tender loving care, so we figured it's about time it recieved some!! We really wanted it to be a place where we could unwind and feel cozy in. It's coming along pretty good, so it will be interesting to see how it all turns out.
One more thing...Brielle decided it would be a good idea to jack the camera and took it for a swim in the cat water, so it may be a while before we get some new pictures taken :(
