Brookley at 7 months


Brookely is an angel baby! So sweet, so easy, so content, so cute! She is adorable and so fun to snuggle. I love it when she just sits on my lap and hangs out with me--content as long as I am holding her. She has the cutest chubby thighs where you can count to rolls. She lights up when she sees her brother and sister. They are so good to her! Bruce can make her giggle and loves to play with her. He made up a patty cake game with her feet that goes like this:


Patty cake, patty cake with your feet. How many cupcakes can you eat? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. Ten cupcakes! That's a lot of cake! Your going to have a tummy ache!"

Brookley hasn't ventured to roll over yet but can sit up for long periods of time and loves to eat solid food. Not so much loving the baby food but prefers solid food cut up really small. She seems to like texture in food. Now if only we could convince her to sleep through the night. Though to her credit she did give me a birthday present by sleeping through the night for two nights in a row on my birthday!

Also just for the record here are her stats at her 6 month checkup. In paranthesis is the how she relates to the average baby.

Weight 14.77 lbs (25%)
Length 24.5 (18%)
Head 43 cm (88%)

A favorite game...count the rolls. Cute, chubby thighs!
First food (sweet potatoes) and rice cereal. She wasn't convinced the first few times we tried baby food. She lets us know when she is done eating by spitting her food all over the place.

I loved reading through all of these last few posts... I was laughing out loud and some of the stuff! Your kids are just the most sweet, thoughtful, and fun. You are so good and capturing and remembering all those really sweet moments.
