Our first few days as 5...

We've all had an exciting few weeks with our new addition "Baby Brynn" as we all like to call her! She has spent a lot of time snoozing, eating and being loved by her brother and sister!

 

Her first real trip out of the house was this weekend to meet Great "Granny" Josephine whom she is named after! Of course Granny was excited to meet her new great-granddaughter and was SO excited about her name!

 

Here are some new pics of our life lately :)

Mickey Mouse...

 

While Mommy and Brynn had a few quiet hours to ourselves, Daddy and Grandma took the two tots to a Mickey Mouse birthday party for one of our special cousins who was turning 3!

 

Of course we had to get all dressed up in our Mickey attire! Daddy forgot to take pictures at the actual party but here are a few we snapped on the way out the door!

 



First Day of School...

Graham and Belle are not only adjusting to life with a new sister they also started pre-school last week too! This is Graham's 2nd year attending the 2 day-a-week pre-school program but this is Belle's first year being away from Mommy for a few hours a week. The first week was a bit rough (for the kids and Mommy) but this week has been better!

Here are a few snapshots of the tots headed out the door on the first day!

Cheese!

Too cute!

Belle's backpack is bigger than she is! She could only keep in on for a minute or she started to fall over :)

Love them!

Our new backpacks!



Welcome Baby Brynn!

Another Princess in our lives to LOVE!

Baby Brynn Josephine Harris was born August 8, 2012 at 8:46am weighing 6 pounds 14 ounces and was 19 1/4 inches! We are so excited about this new addition to our little family!

Mommy went into labor about 10pm on August 7th and we arrived at the hospital around 2am on August 8th!

Here are some pictures of our first few days with little Brynn! We are all still adjusting to having a newborn in the house again but Graham and Belle adore her!

A few minutes old!

Babyland General

On our way home from Myrtle Beach we took a little detour through the mountains of Georgia to visit the Cabbage Patch Babyland General Hospital to see where all these little folks come from! We had fun visiting all the cabbage patch dolls and of course Belle picked out her very own dolly to adopt! Lilly Garden Harris (named by a combination of Daddy, Graham and Belle) was added to the family (or Belle's doll collection) and made the rest of the trip home with us!

Here are some pictures from our little adventure.

Myrtle Beach or Bust 2012

Another successful Harris-Kelly-McElhinney Family vacation with Grandma, Grandbob, Auntie Lindsey, Uncle Steve and Cousin McKenna! And we were sure glad we didn't return with a tan AND a baby! (Mommy was pushing 35 weeks prego!)

The cousins had a blast building castles on the beach, jumping in the pool, playing mini-golf, riding rides, playing at the water park and just acting plain silly!

 Belle and McKenna spent one morning getting earrings while Grandma and Grandbob were on Graham patrol! Of course he loved the one on one time and the gals did great getting their earrings! They spent the rest of the week showing anyone and everyone how their new diamond studs just sparkled away! So cute!

I wanted to share all 800 pictures we snapped but thought that might be a bit too much! So here are a few candids from our trip!

Thank you Grandma and Grandbob for another great week at the beach!!!

Graham and Belle leaving the hotel and headed to the beach in their Harris-Kelly-McElhinney Family Vaction T-shirts! 

Belle was so excited to have another gal to play dress up with, paint her nails with and chat about all the "girly" things! 

 3 Little Monkey's jumping on the bed!
