When a baby hits 18 months in the LDS church it means nursery time. And that is something to celebrate!
Our Brookie is so fun to have around. She keeps it real. :) She is the boss. Her mood determines the rest of ours. She is turning into quite the girl and we love her to death.
She is now in love with playing with my makeup. I love this. She does have a girl side to her. For a while i was worried! :) Every morning she gets to sit on the bathroom counter and play with my powder and lip gloss while i do her hair. It works like a charm!
She loves brushing her teeth. While I am getting ready I give her her tooth brush and she will sit on the counter and chew and brush her teeth the whole time.
Her and Kyler are true siblings. They can play so cute together and giggle and laugh. And then the table turns and they are fighting....usually Brookie getting mad at Kyler for taking her toy or wrseling her to the ground.
She is a funny eater. She scarfs breakfast. Her #1 favorite is oatmeal, but pancakes and cereal are close seconds. Just this week i got brave and started putting milk in her cereal, i used to just give her the dry cereal and milk in a sippy. She is in heaven She is a master at the spoon and fork and i feel bad i didnt do it sooner. She even lifts her bowl up and drinks the milk out of the bowl. Lunch she will eat sometimes....it just depends. She always eats her snacks, BUT dinner. Nope not at all. It is rare for her to eat anything at dinner time. It is so frustrating to me, this is why she eats breakfast so well i am sure.
She has a hard time with daycare. Its a constant fight for my attention. Especially with the baby that is just 2 months younger. The two of them are not good friends. I was hoping they would grow up together and be happy to play with one another. BUT tis not the case. Brookie is a bully to her most of the time. She doesnt like sharing mom. Not one tiny bit. Which is weird seems how i have had daycare here since she was 2 weeks old.
She talks more and more. Not too many new words, but she uses the ones she knows more frequantly. Her favorites to use are "MOE" or more "Uh Oh" and "nigh, nigh" which is her blanket and "Go" She hasnt learned no yet which i feel is a blessing. She will occasionally say "Stop it".Other words i might have mentioned before but will again, she says: eyes, ears, nose, more, "nigh nigh", go, uh oh, more, done, ouchy, papa, gma, "diapa" diaper, wow! hot, cold. She loves to make the meow sound and giggles each time i do it to her. She can bark like a dog and as she has for a long time she does the horsey sound.
She loves to color. She loves to take the lids on and off the markers.
She seems to have intrest in the potty. If we werent moving I would have tackled this. Maybe if she adjusts well to the new house, we will attempt before the baby comes. How cool to only have one in diapers!
She is a snuggle bug and is such a good hugger. The last week or so she has started rubbing your back when you hold her and will stroke your face when sitting in your lap. What a lover.
She loves her daddy. She screams and runs to him when he comes home from work.
We love this lady. She is an adventure we have enjoyed being on for the last 18 months!
