Livin' in Michigan

Here is Brooke in her pretty new jacket. Dec. 20, 2009

Connor had such a great time pushing Brooke in this box.

She loved it too.

I wish he would put the tractor down so we could see his face. He had a great Christmas with way too many gifts.

Connor got to help Grandma Myrna make this gingerbread house.

Brooke loves to dance to all the annoying Christmas music toys.

first steps

I caught her taking a few steps yesterday November 1st. She is almost nine months.

Brooke is seven months

She loves to pull up these days. Playing with the dog.

Cute dress.

See trouble? She goes straight for the remote.

First she used the laundry basket to pull herself up but now she uses everything. September 5th.

Here Brooke is showing a pretty dress. This was August 29th.

Brooke can do some new thing. She can crawl with her tummy off of the floor (Connor skipped that). She can also pull her self up. I now spend a large portion of my day chasing after her and taking things away that she isn't aloud to have. She is the cutest little monster. She sometimes turns the volume up on the T.V. making us both frantic to turn it back down.

Brooke and the boys

Brooke loves to play with Connor. She is fascinated by him. Here Jason is putting together a Lego set for Connor while Connor plays with hot wheels and Brooke watches intently.

At school

First Connor puts his backpack on the back of his chair and take out his homework. He didn't want me to leave so he is a little cranky. You can see the humidity around here already mady the names come off the desks.

Then Connor has to check in at this attendence board.

Brooke is six months old now

Brooke is six months old and has two teeth. She is doing great. You can see that she is sitting really well now.

Connor is five now.

Connor is in Kindergarten.
