SURPRISE!

This maybe one of those stories that is only funny if you experienced it, but I thought I would share anyway. I was changing Brooke's diaper tonight before I put her to bed and I got a little surprise. I pulled off her pants and lifted up her shirt and there was a little round sticker right on her belly button. It was so cute. There were no stickers anywhere else...just the one on her belly button. I actually got a few pictures before she took it off.

Kaylee usually falls asleep for her nap on the couch with no problems. The other day, she was way past her nap time so I told her to lay in her bed and go to sleep. After having to remind her several times to get back in bed and go to sleep, I finally handed her a book and told her to read it and go to sleep. I finished doing the dishes and checked on her again because she was really quiet. This is what I found:







I lifted the book up and she had finally given up. I guess Elmo books aren't as exciting as Elmo videos.

THERE'S A FIRST TIME FOR EVERYTHING

A FIRST TIME FOR PONYTAILS (AT 22 MONTHS???):

Yes, we are finally able to put Brooke's hair in ponytails...kinda...they are wimpy ponytails, but hey, it's a start.

This is after a day of ponytails:

A FIRST TIME TO FALL ASLEEP SOMEWHERE BESIDES HER BED:

Unlike her big sister, Brooke doesn't fall asleep anywhere besides her bed or the car. A few days ago, while eating a "peebu shoo shoo" (peanut butter sandwich), she put her head down on the chair and went to sleep. Quite a surprise! She kept drooling peanut butter because she still had a bite in her mouth. Yuck!!
