April 2011 - Amy & Rodger's Camera

Brynnley Hope Scriven - Born April 24th, 2011 - 6 lbs 1 oz.

The night Brynnley was born I wasn't sure if my water had broken or not so I went to the hospital by myself. We found out it had in fact broken so Rodger had to scramble around to get Ary to Laura's and come up. It took him a couple of hours. Thankfully the nurse was incredibly nice and kept me company. We had a small snafu with my IV not going into a vein. My arm started to swell with fluid which was really unnerving for awhile and made the nurse very nervous. (When your nurse gets nervous it doesn't make you feel better!) It all worked out and everything was pretty smooth from there. Rodger even turned on music during the labor which the nurse and doctor said they enjoyed and wished they had all of the time. Wouldn't life be better if we all had our own personal sound track?!?!

Brynnley and Dee

Day we left the hospital. We had to stay an extra day since my water broke. That was actually a huge blessing. We both felt much more rested this time than we did when Ary was born. I wish I had nurses to bring me food and clean my room now!

Granny Ann & Brynnley

We kept promising Ary that she could help feed Brynn. Since I'm nursing she hasn't really gotten the opportunity except this one time.

Way to go Granny Ann!

Easter Weekend 2011

Hayley, Cooper and Aryanna on Easter weekend at Easter egg hunt. It was in the 70s the day before but was pretty cold that day.

Rodger & Ary

Hayley & Ary. Hayley helped Ary during her hunt. She won 2 1bs of chocolate. The kids and Rodger and I bought even more chocolate and ate it in the Suburban while we were warming up for Hayley's Easter egg hunt. They started calling the Suburban "Chocolate Land." I'm sure Brandon and Laura were thrilled to know that we filled them full of candy before bringing them home. That was probably the most fun part of the day. Hayley's hunt ended up being a real bust because the kids were crazy aggressive in her age group so she didn't get many eggs. Cooper didn't even stay for his. We figured it would be even crazier in his age group!

Ary also won a chance to pick out a stuffed animal. She picked a bunny rabbit that she often gives to Brynnley when she crys.

Rodger thought it might be nice to take some belly pictures. Little did we know that my water had probably broken when this picture was taken. We thought we had another week left but Brynnley had other plans!

Ary & Amy

Ary's new baseball & bat

Sometimes I knock the tee down but the ball still goes far!

Daddy showing Ary how to hold the bat.

We switched to pitching to her with Rodger helping. She thought that was pretty fun to hit the ball in the air.
