July

Brooke Elizabeth

For this month’s journal entry, I have decided to do an ode’ to the funny sayings by Brookie:

1. Since learning her middle name, she no longer appreciates being called Brookie bear. After calling her that one afternoon, she looks at me and says, “Mommy, I am not Brookie Bear, I am Brooke Elizabeth.” So much for a cute nickname!

2. After looking at Brandon in a bathing suit, sitting in the bumbo, she proclaimed, “Brandon has mummums!” He does have quite the man-boobs these days J

3. While doing laundry with mommy, she looked at Eric’s boxers and proudly called them “Daddy’s Panties”

4. After my accident with Kacee, she looks at my foot and says, “Mommy clunked Kacee’s teeth, it was an accident”

5. These days she is learning who is a boy and who is a girl, after going through about 20 people correctly, we ask her if Doc is a boy or a girl…her answer…..Girl…we don’t know if she is right or wrong!! J/K. We then move on to Amanda and Steve. She guessed “girl” for Amanda followed by “big” for Steve!



Brandon Jon

After Brandon’s 6 month check up this months…..there is no longer a need for a DNA test….says Eric. Brandon has slowed down to the 30 percentile for height and is the 50th percentile for weight. Even though he is considered “average” by growth standards, he is still huge to us, breaking the scales at 17lbs 8oz, less than one pound shy of his sister at age 1 year.

His favorite things to do this month are “yell” as his cousins call it (he is probably the loudest and noisiest baby in the family), grab his toes and perfect the art of sitting. I am hoping since he is so chubby, he will be delayed in the crawling category!!

His favorite food is pears, followed by prunes (poor guy needed them)! Just watch out…we both need bibs when he is eating because when he is finished or full, he lets you know by spitting his mouthful at you. Note to self….prunes stain!
