Sand Tasting

As you know I have been ill since Saturday and Brooke and I have spent most of our days in pajamas at home. Well today I had to drive to the Virginia Beach Convention Center to get my race bib for Sunday (yes, I’m still contemplating running sickness and all). Since we were a mile from the beach I decided since we both had a 2 hour morning nap to take Brooke to the sand after the expo. Here she is playing at the sand playground on 1st street in her new shoes since she prefers to be on her feet these days.

When I put Brooke in the sand I should have expected her first instinct would be to taste the sand. I am sure this is the first of many sand tastings we will have this summer.

Brooke’s 10 Month Birthday

Today is Brooke’s 10 month birthday, and we just can’t believe 10 months have already gone by.  She is now pulling herself up when holding on to our hands, and even starting to take a few steps while holding us or the couch.  Brooke still refuses to crawl though, preferring to roll everywhere – – she seems to get along fine without it.


Spring Day at the Park

Today has been an absolutely gorgeous day outside, 60°F and sunny.  After all three of us had brunch we went to the park and played for a while, just enjoying the day.

Grammy Visits – February 27 – March 4, 2013

Grammy was able to come and visit all of us for several days.  Brooke finally warmed up to Grammy (after getting over her “stranger” anxiety that she’s developed) and had a fun time playing, reading and taking wagon rides with her.
