Brooke's favorite new word..

She says it even when she does want something.. She use to say Hi all the time and that would be the first thing we heard from her when she was in her crib in the morning.. But now it's no, no, no.

Brooke and her butterfly tent!

Brooke is growing so fast! She is 16 months today! Here is a video of Brooke playing in her butterfly tent while Jen was babysitting her. She of course has her new favorite word "HI". She says it all the time. It would be annoying if it weren't so cute! I think she likes it because people at stores and restaurants respond when she says it.

Brooke and her Mardi Gras beads.

Brooke got lots of Mardi Gras beads for Christmas. She absolutely LOVES them. She puts them on and then takes them off, then puts them on and takes them off. Pretty! We won't tell her what Nana had to do to get those beads for her for Christmas..

Brooke feeding her baby

Brooke got a baby doll for Christmas from Nana that comes with one of those liquid disappearing bottles. She loves to feed it and started today making little sucking noises when she puts the bottle in the baby's mouth. Way too cute! She also showed one of her new words "hat". It's not super new but she likes to put things on her head and say it.

Rough Week..

Brooke has had a fever on again off again all week. She sometimes doesn't sleep well, but other times sleeps really well. Last night she didn't sleep well, but wasn't ready to get up yet so we cuddled on the floor. She fell asleep and I got up, and she continued to sleep rolling around on her bedroom floor.
