21 Months

Dear Brookelynn, 

This month was jam packed full of fun-you went with Mommy to the Dentist for the first time and even let the dentist look at your teeth. You have been brushing your teeth before you even had any teeth. You got a cute little pink hippo bath toy. And you even knew what it was. Speaking of teeth on 4/30 you started teething again and it looks like your right bottom fang is getting ready to make an appearance. Only a year later from when I first thought you were getting them. 

You have been asking to go night-night several times. You go to the first stair and say "I go night-night". It's the funny-est thing to me. And you are very happy when I tuck you in and you go right to sleep. 

This month I can say you officially know all your shapes and will get them when asked to or will point to the right one in pictures. You can also say your full name Brooke Brooke Jayde Marsh. Marsh is my favorite word for you to say because you sound like you are from Boston. It's super cute! 

This month we celebrated Mother's Day. You coordinated with Glammy to take me to Tea and it was the best Mother's Day. I love how excited you were and watching you enjoy yourself. I loved how proper you were and put your napkin on your lap. You even had your own tea cup and ordered the Teddy Bear tea. And you even ate salad and discovered that you loved it. I loved my new Mama Bear coffee mug too. 

Mommy's birthday was this month too the big 2-9! It was very anticlimactic! But, I loved how excited you were for me to open my gifts! I loved your beautiful picture that you drew for me too. 

You were in your first pageant and won most expressive (which to us is a no brainer) and first runner up. You were in your glory at the practice and the pageant. You loved twirling and blowing kisses. You even thanked the judges. You are such a cutie-pie. I love that you are so girlie. You of course got a trophy for being first runner up but of course Daddy brought you flowers and wand and a princess puppy. And Glammy and Papa got you a balloon and a tiara. You were so happy. We are all so proud of you. 

This month you also got to go to Josh's badge pinning ceremony. You loved clapping for him and were very concerned when he wasn't there because he got an emergency call (he was on duty). You waited patently in the parking lot calling out his name. He finally made it and got his Firefighter badge. 

You also went to the salon with Mommy and Glammy for the first time but you were very concerned you were going to get foil in your hair. 

Finally, we got you a dog that you can walk and it interacts like a real one, it has been a highlight for this month because you are just as afraid of it as you are Paisley. And you are very concerned that it's going to get your purse! Because of course the bag lady has been passed on to the next generation! You are my mini me!

Here's to more tea parties and loads more purses! -XOX!
