Brooklyn: 1 year 11 months

Brooklyn is the funniest girl ever! She keeps me on my toes and laughing every single day! She comes up with the funniest things to say and I have no idea where she gets it from.

I can't believe that in ONE month Brooklyn will be TWO! I just can't believe how fast the last two years have gone. I sure love this spunky little girl!

Brooklyn also has her naughty side too! If she gets told no she will throw whatever is in her hand.. She definitely has an attitude and is very stubborn.

Brooklyn can't wait for her baby brother to get here and she is going to be the best big sister. She is such a mommy to her baby dolls and its the sweetest.

Brooklyn got her first blisters this past month. Curtis was making popcorn on the stove and turned his back for 2 seconds and she either touched the pan or the burner.. Brooklyn has a very high pain tolerance and she just ran to us and said "hot, hot!" Blisters take a minutes to show up and her fingers were just red, I kissed them better and she just kept saying "hot, hot!" so I ran them under cold water and you could see it took the pain away for a little bit. We noticed the blisters coming up and we felt so bad for her! She had a blister on her ring finger and her middle finger. All she wanted us to do was run them under the cold water. We put some aloe vera on them and band aids so she wouldn't touch them. They were pretty big blisters but by morning she was fine and you wouldn't even know they were there because she felt fine! It did take a couple weeks for the blisters to go away though.















30 Weeks

I can't believe how completely opposite this pregnancy has been from Brooklyn's. It has been so nice though and I wish every woman's pregnancy could be as easy as this one has been.

Baby boy moves like crazy! Brooklyn was so lazy and hardly ever moved haha! I'm constantly getting kicked and jabbed and punched, but I love it! I love feeling this little guy move around. His feet are clear up in my ribs and that definitely does not feel very good though ha. 

We are 99% sure we know what we are naming baby boy but everyone is going to have to wait until he's born to know :)

Brooklyn still loves kissing my belly and she sure loves her sweet little brother already! 

Baby is measuring 2-3 weeks ahead of the dr's due date, which is my original due date.. even though they won't change my due date back. The dr. said he would induce me at 39 weeks though, but we're hoping he comes earlier ;) Baby boy was measuring 3 lbs 10 oz at my 29 week ultrasound which puts him in the 80th percentile! 

29 weeks

Brooklyn: 1 year 10 months

Brooklyn is a very polite girl and will say "thank you" without even being told too. She can't say "you're welcome" yet so if we say thank you to her she will just say thank you back!

"Mommy you doin' alright?"
"Yeah, I'm doin' alright."
"Daddy you doin' alright?"
"Yeah, I'm doin' alright."
"YEAH! We're doin' alright!"
A super fun conversation we had with Brooklyn in the car. Now on the daily she will ask us if we're doin' alright.

Brooklyn loves to pretend that she is sick. She will fake cough and rub her nose so we will give her a Kleenex so she can then wipe her nose. It's so funny.

This little girl has definitely hit the WHY stage and sometimes it can get very frustrating to answer why to everything!

Brooklyn was dancing for Curtis and I and we were clapping for her and then she bowed and I about died! She was watching a show the other day and they had a talent show and the kids bowed at the end, Brooklyn certainly pays attention to things. Honestly though, watching an almost 2 year old bow at the end of their dance has got to be the most adorable thing ever!

Brooklyn went to her first fair and rodeo! She loved it and I can't wait to take her to more!
