Dear Blog, I will be back!

Here are a few photos of Brooklyn from a couple of nights ago! I will update pregnancy photos and hopefully the birthdate of my little lady! Who is still nameless!!

July 4th in Waco!

This year we spent July 4th weekend in Waco. It was a great time for family and fun. One of my best friends from high school was getting married and we had a family reunion. I spent very little time with the family or Brooklyn for that matter because I had a lot to do with the wedding party. But Brooklyn was well taken care of by a multitude of family members. I will post about the wedding and reunion later. My sisters also have pictures of Brooklyn playing with the sparklers. We had a great holiday weekend. Up next is Nicks family reunion on the California coast. I can't wait! Fun in Sun!

A Sneak Peak of our future addition!

These are of her 24weeks and 4days! We can't wait to meet her! She is so precious! She looks like her big sister! It is really amazing to feel her move all about. She is still in the breech position. Which she has been in for 10 to 12 weeks now or at least at every ultrasound she has been. I hope she turns soon.

18 month Stats!

Today had to have been the worst doctors visit to date for Brooklyn. It was the first appointment that we had that daddy wasn't able to make it. Which meant emotional mommy got to hold her own baby down and watch her get FOUR shots. It was so heartbreaking. Brooklyn had never really cried before with shots, but today she made up for all the past ones. Mommy had to cry too. It just hurt my heart so bad. Brooklyn was trooper in the end and walked herself out of the doctor office. On a positive side Brooklyn doesn't need anymore shots until she is FOUR. After the doctors appointment we waited for Daddy to get home and we went to get Keva Juice. It was yummy.

*STATS*

Weight 21.7lbs (10%)

Height 31.5 inches (40%)

Happy Father's Day

Daddy and Brooklyn on Father's Day! We all spent a nice relaxing day at home just hanging out watching the US Open. All and all it was a great day for all. I got to relax without doing to much. It was almost like mothers day, but don't tell Nick he might want a do over day!

18 Months!

My little baby turned 18 months old! I can't believe she is growing up so fast. She is amazing. Everyday is something new with her. Last week she got a new leap frog toy named Violet. Her daddy managed to rename her Prince because she is purple. Nick also likes to call her Purple Rain. He is so funny, but Brooklyn loves her. She has to go everywhere with her. She is very chatty but doesn't say very many words or sentences. She has a new found love, her daddy! She just loves Nick. She can't get enough of him. When the garage door opens she runs off to meet him at the door. If you ask her who her favorite person is she will say dada dada. It is pretty cute. It only took a year for her to become a daddy's girl. She is a very big eater, but you wouldn't know it by how much she weights. Barely 21 pounds, however she is very very active. She loves to play in her swimming pool. She loves to give mommy's' belly kisses. She is super excited to be a big sister. Brooklyn, mommy and daddy are so in love with you and are truly blessed you are such a sweet precious little ball of energy. We love you Brooklyn Lea.

Playdate with Mason

Brooklyn had a playdate with Mason today. They had such a good time. Mason chased Brooklyn and Brooklyn chased Mason. Brooklyn even played with a kid she didn't know and pushed him around on his toy.

Thanks to Auntie Roxy for taking Brooklyn this week while Johnell is on vacay. She is having a great time. She can't wait for her pool party tomorrow.

Finally Summer Weather

Today was the first weekend to get outside and play in the water. Brooklyn had such a great time in her new little pool. We were hoping Mason was going to come over but it got windy so we got out, but not before Brooklyn took a header into the pool and got her scared. I don't know how in the heck it happened her foot slipped and she went head first. Poor baby was scared for a few seconds, but was okay in the end. She had a great time and can 't wait to do it again.

MAYbe We should catch Up!

Brooklyn eating SHIPLEYS Donuts for the first time!

I just love her big BLUE eyes!

I am not sure where the time has gone, but soon enough she will be TWO!

Yikes!

What a difference a Year makes!!

Brooklyn's First Easter 2009!

Easter 2010!

Happy Easter!

We had a pretty low key Easter. Brooklyn and I had breakfast together then she took a THREE hour nap. Then daddy (Nick) made it home and they had lunch together. Then we hunted eggs in the house because the weather has been poor and Brooklyn has been under the weather. So we made the best of it. Brooklyn did a great job finding all of her eggs that her daddy hide for her.

"March"ed on By!

I honestly have no clue where the heck March has gone. We have been so busy with honestly I have no clue what and Brooklyn and I have both been under the weather a couple times this past month, but here are a couple of photos of the past month. April will hopefully be a better month for me blogging about life.

At the beginning of March Brooklyn had a play date with sweet little Mason. Mason is such a little love bug. He will give hugs and kisses and just loves to share them with Brooklyn. We just love it when Mason comes over to play.

St. Patrick's Day! Brooklyn wasn't very happy to take a picture at daycare.

Tonight Brooklyn had spaghetti for dinner tonight. Boy did she have a mess of herself. She got so messy we had to had a bath in the sink. Yes she still fits in the sink and has a great time. It is also way more convenient for mommy.
