I realized I still find myself referring back to this blog on Brooke's growth, or what she was up to at certain months and times.. so I'm going to do my best to keep it updated - even if it's just once a month!
Brooke has sure grown and changed since my last post! She is running around everywhere and non stop jabbering. She continues to crack us up daily!
She LOVES cartoons - particularly Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Goldie and Bear. She is recently obsessed with airplanes and wants to run outside anytime she hears one. We are also slowly working on potty training! Every once in a while she will be really into it - like last night at dinner she said she needed to go potty so I took her too the restroom... she went potty, wiped, flushed, and then washed her hands like it was no big deal! Shes always surprising us!
She is really talking more and more lately. She has many phrases such as "I did it!" "What's that?" (a million times a day) "Where's daddy?" (or anyone else thats not in the room) "I don't want it" (my least favorite phrase!), anytime she falls, "I'm okay!" or "Whoa!" and much much more. Every day is something new.
And of course, our most exciting news -- We are expecting another little girl in March!! Everytime I ask Brooke if she wants a little sister she says "yes!!". She is going to be such a good big sister. She is obsessed with babies! Anytime we see one, she is dragging me by the leg to go see it. Little sister doesn't know whats coming! ;)
Funny story - The other day I was "explaining" to her that my belly was going to grow really big because the baby was growing big inside. She sat there and listened the whole time like she was really taking everything in and then replies with "ew." Ha!
Here is a little of what we've been up to lately!!
Flashback to Brooke's 18 month appt! She was 34 in. (96%), 24.2 lbs (49%), and not happy about getting shots!
In April we were fortunate to take Brooke to Jamaica with Collin's family!!
In June we had a BLAST in Florida on another family vacation!
July 15th we found out Brooke was going to be a big sister! :)
A couple days later we sold our house and moved Brooke into a big girl bed at my dads house!
Brooke's first Rangers game. She did great!
Brooke started Preschool at St. Peter! The first couple weeks she would cry and cling on to me.. now she is all smiles and loves her teacher and friends!
Lubbock over Labor Day to cheer on our Red Raiders!
We're constantly checking the progress on our new house! We move in the second weekend in November!!
School pictures!! I'm so obsessed! She was 22 months here :)
17 Weeks pregnant. NOT the best picture!! This little one gave me a rough go in the beginning.. but I've been feeling pretty good lately.
Celebrating 4 years with my favorite guy!
The boys took a trip to Pebble Beach! I think they had a good time!! When describing it all they could say is "you just had to be there." haha apparently its gorgeous views!
And lastly, we're all excited when daddy gets home from work :)
That's a lot of life lately!! Not much has been going on, but time sure has been flying! I am going to do my best at updating more often. Our new little girl (and Brooke!) deserves it!!
