Today I bought a second bouncer for $10 from a fellow stroller strides mom. Now that we have a bigger house I thought it would be good to have one downstairs and one in the playroom. First thing Brooke did when we got home was put her baby in it and offer her baby toys, milk, and rocked the baby. Someone’s practicing to be a big sister! 🙂
Last Wednesday we went to a little festival that Chesapeake put on with several of the local food trucks. Â They also had a live band from one of the high schools nearby. Â We had a nice time visiting with friends and eating delicious food.
This past Monday we went to the Great Wolf Lodge, an indoor water park we had just visited in March.  This time we went for just a day trip, and had a blast.  Brooke loved splashing around in the water again.  With our new phones that are water-resistant I even took lots of photos in the water and some videos going down the water slides (I might have pushed the limits of the water resistance, but the phone still works).  At the end of the day, you could tell Brooke really enjoyed herself by how quickly she fell asleep on the car ride home… barely made it out of the parking lot.

This past week we had Grammy and Grandpa visit. Â Brooke had a hard time saying her “G’s”, so we finally settled on the names Ammy and Papa for now, which Brooke took to very well. Â We had a great week spending time with them. Â Brooke specifically had a blast going to the trampoline park, playing at the playground, visiting the botanical gardens, going kayaking and just spending some quality time at home with Ammy and Papa, to name just a few of the things we did.
