This week Laura’s parents, Karl (Opa) and Veronica (Oma), flew to Virginia from Arizona to visit Brooke. Both had a lot of fun holding, playing with, and taking care of her at home and they took her on some adventures as well. Brooke went to her first Pow Wow on June 2nd and got to see all the traditional dances and listen to the drum circle’s singers. She loves being in her BOB stroller. Laura got to eat a fry bread taco too. Yum! Then they went to the Norfolk Botanical Gardens on a drizzly June 5th and got to see all the beautiful hydrangeas in bloom. Brooke was very snugly under the rain protector in her BOB, and luckily Laura had a hat and socks in her diaper bag (a mom, even a new one, is always prepared). June 6th was the Sea and Air Parade for OpSail 2012 at the Norfolk waterfront. AJ joined everyone at this event highlighting military ships as they sailed through the harbor. Brooke looked adorable in her nautical themed dress. June 8th was Opa’s last day and they went to the Tall Ships Parade of Sail at the Norfolk Harbor again. This time Laura got to try out the ERGO with Brooke. Brooke loved it and promptly fell into a happy sleep. They had a busy but fun week visiting.
