Brooke has been wanting to walk for a few weeks now. She will practice by holding on to our hands and taking a few steps or furniture “walking” as well. We decided to give her a little more freedom and bought her a “walker” so that she can practice on her own.

Today was a cold, cloudy, and windy St Patrick’s Day. It was also Laura’s half marathon. She and her fellow moms from Mom’s Gotta Run running group ran together in matching “Kiss Me, I’m a Mom” shirts. Laura did a fantastic job and set a personal record for herself at a time of 2 hours, 5 minutes and 14 seconds. Way to go Laura! AJ and Brooke were cheering for her at the finish line. Afterwards we all spent some time chatting and drinking beer in the after race tent.
On Saturday Brooke got to go to her first Easter Egg Hunt. With a little help from Mom she was able to grab her first egg ever. She even got to meet the Easter Bunny and sit in a fire truck too.
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.
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.
