Here's the Story of a Lovely Lady, Her Handsome Husband, and Their Beautiful Daughters....: so, you want pictures?

Mommy and Brookie

Well, I am working on my Sprint card for the internet because I am in Atlanta for work, so hopefully, all of the pictures will load successfully.

Brooke started eating cereal last week. We tried rice cereal at first, she thought it was blah. At the end of the week, we tried oatmeal and she seems to like it. She sometimes screams in between bites which I interpret as "I want more now!" I think it is so neat to watch her eat off of a spoon. Our pediatrician said after having cereal for a couple of weeks, she can start with some Stage 1 baby food.

Brooke is getting to be such a big girl. Still not rolling over, but she will get on her side and talk and can do a 180 on her side which is funny. We have also had issues getting her to bed. She will NOT go to sleep on her own in the crib, so she falls asleep on someone, and then we transfer her to the crib, but almost 100% of the time, she wakes up and starts crying. We recently realized that she likes to sleep on her side. So, we've had some luck with that the past couple of nights, let's hope we can keep it up. Since she barely naps during the day, we think she should be exhausted at night, but she is a fighter. If anyone has any ideas, we will certainly entertain them. :)

This past weekend, we visited Santa at the mall. Brooke was so good. We got her a bright white dress for Christmas, so the picture is very bright and her dress makes it POP! It's still cute though. (Look for better pictures in a couple of weeks with the same dress).
