Last Family Day of Three

This Tuesday was AJ’s last day off before we become a family of four and we spent it together taking Brooke out to breakfast and because it was raining, to a local bounce house.  We all had an amazing time and Brooke did some great bouncing and climbing.

Laura’s Baby Belly and Brooke

Brooke has been all about the baby lately, which is a really good thing considering that we are 3 weeks away from the new baby arriving.  Laura will tell Brooke when the baby is kicking or moving so that Brooke can feel the baby.  Brooke also likes to give the baby kisses and do a “belly bump” with Laura.  It’s ridiculously cute.

NBG Butterfly Festival

Today we went to the NBG Butterfly Festival as a family.  Brooke did a butterfly necklace craft, we took the tram for the first time to the butterfly house, and had lunch from the local food trucks.
