Back from an extended hiatus!

Well it's been a while! We've been having so much fun around here I've had no time to update the blog! Brooklyn and I spent a couple weeks in St. Louis and this weekend and last we've been up at the lake! Don't worry, we've been staying out of the water! Next weekend we'll be back up in St. Louis for Christmas!

Brooklyn had her 4 month appointment on Monday. She is oh so close to doubling her birth weight and has grown over 5 inches! She got her 4 month shots and didn't even shed a tear! What a big girl! One of the most exciting things (for me at least) that she started doing last month is sleeping through the night! So nice! It's crazy how good I feel after 5 hours of sleep, even when it's 4 in the morning! She's also learned to roll from stomach to back and back to side. She can roll onto her stomach from her side, but not all in one smooth motion. She's been drooling and blowing bubbles like crazy. She can sit by herself with her arms supporting herself and I personally think it's hilarious when she falls over. Typically she falls forward onto her face. Don't worry, we practice on the bed where it's soft! Brooklyn also started sucking her thumb...or entire fist and putting everything in her reach into her mouth. And she's also talking like crazy! I finally downloaded Picasa on this laptop so I created some collages to show all the new things Miss Brooklyn Gal has been up to lately! Enjoy and I'll try to not stay away as long next time!

I can't believe how big Brooklyn is! Enjoy your time with her because before you know it, she will be talking non stop and constantly getting into things. We can't wait to finally meet her when we do get to come out. Have a great Christmas!
