Video Clips of Little Miss

Don't worry about the rough transitions haha. I was doing good to figure out how to shorten the video clip so you didn't have to watch the whole 5 minutes. I promise I'll figure it out. :)

More TPG Pictures

These are more pictures of Thanksgiving Point Gardens. I thought they were too pretty not to post. :)

Birthday's, Golf, and Funny Faces

Sorry for the random post, I haven't had the chance to sit down and blog for a few weeks so I decided to hit some of the highlights...

It always seems like Brookie finds something new to do whether it be laughing, making funny sounds or making funny faces, but she will usually only do it for about 2 days then it's on to the next thing. A few weeks ago when I had her laying on the floor she randomly pulled this face over and over. I know it looks kinda scary in this picture but it was sooo funny!

I love this picture of her and Brett!

On May 7th my hansom husband turned 26! Instead of finding someone to watch Brooklyn or haul her around somewhere we decided to get chinese takeout and later his family came over for cake and ice cream. I try and make him a cool cake each year (football, hamburger, golf bag), but this year I decided to keep it simple and made him a simple but delicious homemade chocolate chip cake, complete with awesome blue writing :)

A few days later he went to Mesquite on a golf trip with his friend and his friends dad, brother-in-law and a few of their friends. He had a fun time and enjoyed the HOT weather.

then...on May 11th I celebrated my 25th birthday. Brett left for Mesquite on my birthday (I know, he's passionate about his golf!...but don't feel bad) so we celebrated with just the 3 of us on the 10th by getting takeout again, this time from Chili's. We're really loving the whole take out thing. How can you beat eating dinner with hardly any clean up in your comfy pj's while watching "The Office"! Then on my birthday my family took me and Brooklyn out to dinner and my mom made me a delicious cake. The next day me, my mom, and Brook went to the Thanksgiving Point Gardens for the day. It was such a nice day, which I was so thankful for and the flowers were beautiful!

6 months

As of yesterday Brookie is 6 months old...

She is such a happy girl! She's grown long enough for her feet to touch the floor while sitting in her jumper and has been a little jumping bean, she has just figured out how to laugh on her own without mom or dad tickling her. Sometimes she'll wakeup in the morning and I will hear her laughing to herself in her crib like she is practicing her new trick :) Most of her brown hair, that she had when she was born, has fallen out to make way for her new blonde hair, which we thought she would have in the first place since Brett and I were both blonde. She takes three 1-1/2 to 2 hour naps...she loves her sleep. The good thing is she's a good sleeper in her crib, the bad thing is she makes it difficult sometimes to go out and do stuff because she doesn't stay up very long at a time and will only cat nap in her car seat. We went to the doc today and she is 24 3/4 inches tall 15%, and weighs 13.9 lbs 10%. We are lovin this growing girl!!
