After Brooke was napping I went outside to enjoy the gorgeous 75 degree day with Alex. I took some pictures and a video of him being adorable and ‘talking’. Then AJ woke up from his night shift and said we were so cute that he took some pictures of the two of us.

Brooke has been learning a lot in school. Just a few weeks ago all we could get her to count to was 5, and now she is counting to ten without any help.

Brooke got to give Alex a bottle for the first time today. They both seemed to really enjoy this special moment.

Yesterday it rained all day, so we stayed in for the morning. After Brooke’s nap though we all went outside and splashed around in the rain and puddles. Even Alex came outside with Laura (although they did stay in the cover of the garage). I don’t know if you can tell, but Brooke is really happy to be outside in the rain.

Brooke loves to play a new game recently. She brings you her zebra to hide, then she goes and hides behind some curtains, or will find a pillow to hide her face, while you hide the zebra. You have to be careful though, she loves to cheat and watch where you put the zebra. She’ll even try to reassure you that she’s not cheating by saying “No peak”. Once the zebra is hidden she comes out and looks for him and usually screams with joy when she finds him. In the video below she is saying “Zebra” attempting to cup her hands around her mouth as if calling out for him.
