Random

Brooklyn sitting up to play with her toys on the bouncer.
Camrie taking a nap with Uncle Spencer. Camrie's new thing to do is when we ask her anything that she doesn't want to do she will say "no I two" Us: "you want to go take a nap?" Her: "no I two." Us: "You want to eat?" Her: "no I two." Us: "You want to go?" Her: "no I two."

Front room

Before
I didn't like the white walls. I also didn't like the color on the bay window.
I hated the bear wall paper boarder in the entry way and the gate that was in the way and made a hole in the wall. None of the outlets or switches matched.
After
Painted all the walls a cream color. painted the ceilings.
Took the bear wall paper off and the gate. Put new white outlets and switches.

Scissors

We have been letting Camrie cut things with scissors and she has done a really good job. She picked it up really quick. One day she came down to me when I was doing the laundry. She was so happy with herself. She had cut little slits across the bottom of her PJ shirt. I was glad that it was just her PJ's and not something else.
So I started putting the scissors on the top of the fridge where she couldn't get them. I came into the kitchen and found this. She is no dummie. She pulled the tallest "chair" over to our fridge and stood on her tip toes and reached as far as she could and still wasn't able to get them. Then she called for help "need help".

Brooklyn Sitting


Brooklyn can kinda sit by herself. She does better on the couch or recliner then on the hard floor but she is getting there.
My little drool monster.

Headband


New headband that I made for Brooklyn

Stomping in the mud


First Cereal

Brooklyn's first time eating cereal. She was not a fan. She didn't want to open her mouth and when she did it was to cry. Which I used as my chance to get cereal in thinking that she would like it once she tried it. Once the cereal was in she would start sucking like she was nursing. Then cry that she wasn't getting anything. She did better about getting the spoon in her mouth when we let her hold the spoon but that was a huge mess.
So for now we are putting off cereal. By this time I had been giving Camrie baby food for 2 months. Its crazy how different your kids can be.

Camrie

Cutting
Sleeping
Baking Cookies for Papa. His favorite, sugar cookies.
Holding "Ho Ho"
Learning to peddle on her bike.

Next step learn to not ride in circles.

GangstaThis is how she came out of the bathroom after going potty. She didn't even notice that something wasn't right. She keep slipping on the floor because her pants were hanging down over her feet.

Brooklyn

Chill'n in the jump a roo. Notice her hand hanging down by her side.

She likes her thumb over her binky.
