HOUSTON, WE HAVE TEETH



I SWEAR THERE ARE TWO TEETH THERE IF YOU LOOK REALLY CLOSE.

Dear Brooklyn,

You have teeth.

Barely, but there are definitely two teeth there.

I actually noticed them six weeks ago right after your birthday but they were just barely out of the gums that you couldn't really seethem at all until this week.

My little baby is growing up extremely fast.

I really need to spend more time appreciating you and every fleeting stage of your life.

I love you!

Sincerely, Lori

WALK, WALK, WALK ALL DAY LONG





Dear Brooklyn,

You are officially a walker! You now walk way more then you crawl.

You kind of walk like a penguin. It's sort of funny to watch sometimes. You waddle around the house and sometimes get going too fast and crash.

I hope you won't lose your cute baby fat. I will miss my chunky monkey.

I feel like you are quickly turning into a toddler....

Sincerely, Lori

LABOR DAY WEEKEND



KURT AND BROOKYLN SPENDING TIME TOGETHER

Dear Kurt,

It was a nice labor day weekend.

We spent most of our time just relaxing and enjoying ourselves. We hung out with family a little bit, we played card games with friends a little bit. We played volleyball a little bit. We ate a lot a bit... he he.


BROOKLYN ON THE WAY TO PLAY SOME VOLLEYBALL

A nice, relaxing holiday weekend was exactly what we needed right now. I'm very happy.

Sincerely, Lori

AN EVENING WALK






Dear Kurt,

Tonight we went for a nice walk.


The weather was great and since Brooklyn and I had been cooped up in the house all day we decided a leisurely stroll sounded perfect.


I hope the weather holds up a lot longer so we can have more evenings like this one.

Sincerely, Lori

A ROUGH WEEK



Dear Brooklyn,

You have had a rough week.

You haven't been sleeping that well.

You got a really bad diaper rash that for a few days that is just barely clearing up.

PLAYING WITH YOUR PEE BECAUSE I LET YOU CRAWL AROUND WITHOUT YOUR DIAPER TO AIR OUT YOUR BUM...

You get really mad at me because I won't let you climb on the desk.

You want to be held, then you want to be put down.



I'm not sure if you are teething or growing or sick....

Sincerely, Lori

WHERE'S MY NOSE?

BROOKLYN FINDING MY NOSE


Dear Dad,

While webcaming with you and mom the other day, you taught Brooklyn how to find peoples noses.

I say "Where's my nose?" and she touches it with her finger.

She can find anyone's nose, except her own.... I don't think she understands where it is at yet. A couple of times when I said "Where's your nose?" and then pointed to her nose she put her hand on the top of her head... someday she will get it.

She loves webcaming with you guys. I love webcaming with you guys.

I love you.

Sincerely, Lori
