Funny story about Brooke...it's not going to be nearly as good typing it out, because you have to hear the singy voice that Brooke and I both used. So please, feel free to ask me about it - and I would love to tell you the story in person! The other day, Brooke asked if she could have Raisins. I was cooking dinner, so I told her "Raisins after Dinner, Raisins after Dinner"...now this is the singy voice I was using. She then asked if she could have fruit snacks...so I said "Fruit snacks after dinner, fruit snacks after dinner" (again, in my singy voice). A little bit later, I opened the freezer to get something out for dinner and Brooke saw the ice cream. She looks at me and sings: "Ice Cream for Dinner, Ice Cream for Dinner". I laughed hysterically and gave Brooke the biggest hug and kiss. It was one of the most adorable things she had ever done!
I put Taylor in the Exersaucer for the first time the other day, and she did great! She held her head up, she played, she smiled. Brooke was very good with her too - she was showing Taylor how to play with things. It amazes me how Taylor played in the Exersaucer compared to how Brooke did at this age. Brooke just sat there while I pressed things. Taylor actually presses the buttons - and she really means to. Brooke didn't mean to press the buttons until she was like 5 months old or something.
I got out the baby book the other day to see when Brooke started laughing. She first giggled at 15 weeks. Curious to see when Taylor will laugh the first time - she's 13 weeks now. I can't wait for that day.
Brooke's first tooth came in when she was 23 weeks. Taylor has a little white spot in the bottom gum line - Melanie and Jeremy both swear a tooth will pop through very soon. I am a little skeptical and don't think she's quite ready for that to happen yet. Time will tell who's right.
I can't wait until Christmas and see Brooke's face as she opens up her presents on Christmas morning. I hope Santa Claus brings her all that she wants this Christmas.
