Brooke’s First Ballgame

Today we decided to go as a family to our local minor league Tides baseball game.  Brooke had fun walking in the isles and trying some ball park grilled soft pretzel.  Her favorite thing by far was walking up and down the stadium stairs.  Mom and Dad took alternate innings walking with her.  Even though she didn’t quite make it through the 7th inning stretch, for a 13 month old she did great.

AJ’s Last Day of Residency

Today June 30th, 2013 was AJ’s last day of residency so I got up early to surprise him with a special breakfast as he was coming home at 8 o’clock after night shift.  Of course I had to make some for Brooke as well.  I woke her a bit early so we could be ready when Dad got home but she didn’t seem to mind.

Towne Place Concert

We love living in Chesapeake.  There is always something fun going on for our family to go do.  During the summer one of our favorite things to do is going to the Towne Place Concerts on Friday evening where they have live music.  This year Brooke can now run around and really enjoy herself, which she did tonight.

Run Like Mommy

I was shopping for long overdue new running shoes this weekend and saw a cute shirt in the running store.  It said “Someday I’ll Run like my Mommy.” The shirt however was $20 and even though it was a 2T, I could tell it was way to short for Brooke’s long torso.  So with a $5 target ruffle sleeve tank and some creativity I made my own shirt for Brooke.  She seems to take the message to heart and is working on her speed.
