Open eyes and G-ma Uda

I've had a few complaints that we don't have any pics of Brinley with her eyes open. This isn't really my fault since the girl sleeps like 20 hours a day! (not that I'm complaining, she is such a mellow baby!) But I did try to catch her in one of her rare awake moments and got a few pics with her eyes open.

Awake and serious

Also, today is my mom's last day here : ( So I wanted to put up a few pics of the girls with their Grandma Uda. I'm so sad my mom is leaving! My house has been so clean with her here and we've had the best meals EVER! I'm so scared to see how quickly this place turns into a disaster area when she's gone!

I cried and cried when my mom left because I knew reality was going to kick in & was not ready for it. She DOES look more like Taber with her eyes open. Very beautiful.

Crazy! I just saw your mom and Sarah at Costco and now she's at your house. It's really sad when those Moms' leave, why can't they just stay forever??

So cute! I just love her:) I can really see Teya in her! How lucky...two beautiful girls! I know how you feel, I bawled when my mom left too. That know just how to help and it's sure hard when they leave! Thank goodness for moms!

How fun that you got to have your mom there! I'm getting just as excited for my mom to fly in next week as I am for this baby to come.

She's DARLING you guys! Thanks for the pics. I'm glad Teya is warming up to the little sister idea. :)

She has beautiful eyes! Isn't nice to have mom there to help and give reinforcement! I remember being SO scared when my mom left--of course, I cried. But then I was surprised at how strong I really was when she did leave. Hopefully it will be the same. I'll pray for you.

I love Brinley's little belly! It is so cute and round. Sorry that your mom is leaving- those are the best times when they are taking care of you! I know you will be great on your own though!

Awww, She is beautiful I am really curious to know does she resemble Teya as a newborn or not at all? And her eyes look like they have some green in them, Brinley is a cute little stink!

Hey I'm so glad your mom got to come see Brinley and help you out! We just love your mom to pieces. That pic of Brinley and Teya together is just adorable. You will treasure it more and more as Brinley gets older. I wish I had taken more pictures of Makenzie and Jarom together when Jarom was a newborn. So take lots!
