Brooke Elizabeth
As of this month, we have officially ditched the diapers for Brooke. Mommy had been putting it off because, believe it or not, it is easier in diapers…when you are out shopping. We now know where all the bathrooms are in the mall, Target, Walmart, Barnes and Noble, and just about every other store that we have visited in the past two weeks. As you can imagine there were a few accidents along the way, my favorite “accident story” was at Mimi’s house. As you can imagine Brooke was very excited to poop in the potty, so while standing up to show mommy her business, the rest of her business came out on the floor….oops!! We now know to sit for a long time to make sure we are done! Eric put it nicely when he said potty training is like having a puppy all over again.
Brandon Jon
Now when you look at Brandon, you won’t see that gummy smile anymore. He officially has one tooth (beating his sister by 3 months)! He perfectly timed its arrival around the one night mommy and daddy were supposed to go out on the town kid free! A nice little fever changed those plans awfully quickly, and his tooth followed a week later. Brandon was also Baptized this month. I didn’t hear it, but I was told that while he was up at the baptismal font, he burped at the Reverend. I guess that is better than crying?? Additionally this month, Brandon made his first visit to the ESPN zone in Times Square.. I don’t know if this is the beginning of a double standard, but he has also been partying on Bourbon Street at 1am….before the age of 1….Brooke has yet to do either of the two previous things…..
