Brinley Elaine Ricks

After a few days of debate we chose to name our sweet little girl Brinley Elaine Ricks. Brinley because we liked it and Elaine after my mom. A few other names we thought about were Jenna, Aynslee and Hadley. Her big brother is in love with her! Every time he sees her he thinks she needs her binky. He loves to hold her and is interested every time she makes any noises. He has also needed a little more one on one attention from us, but overall he has taken this change really well. Here are a few pictures to enjoy. Brinley had a little bit of jaundice, but is doing better now. She's so sweet! We love her!
