Elmo makes it all better

Brooke got her first scraped knee today while we were walking to check the mail. The Elmo bandaid seems to have made it all better.

Dancing the day away

Brooke loves to dance...and today she actually let me video her for a few seconds. Her favorite music is hip-hop thanks to Yia Yia!

Saturday Kris and Riley came over to play. Sure is different for Brooke to play with a girl versus her usual playmates of Ben and Hunter. The girls had a great time playing in the kitchen and tasting all of the fake food. Boys or girls, some kids are all the same. They all love to play hide and seek in my curtains.

Are you ready for some football

Saturday, Matt and Joe went to the Aggie game and Brooke had to dress just like Daddy. Then he took her to BW3 to watch the first round of games on Sunday. She came home shouting FOOTBALL! She now recognizes it on TV and says FOOTBALL everytime she sees it. Joe has trained her well to like football!

No more pictures

We tried to have Brooke's 2 year pictures taken today and after 45 minutes of crying and screaming, we decided to reschedule. The photographer was very patient with Brooke and showed her his camera, let her play with all the props in there and tried several different backgrounds. I guess we will try again next week.

Water, Water Everywhere

Poppy built Brooke a stepstool, so she can help me in the kitchen. Her favorite thing to do is to turn the water on and it goes everywhere! She is becoming quite independent. She can take her trash to the trash can and will put her dishes in the sink. She is growing up so fast.

Down and Dirty

While we were celebrating our 7 year anniversary in Lake Charles, Brooke stayed with Poppy and Yia Yia. They took her to the beach and my little princess who says "dirty" anytime a speck of dirt is on her, was covered from head to toe in mud.
