A Month of Milestones

Its seems as though since the New Year Brooklynn has been making changes left, right and center. Whether it's from trying new food, to riding on her daddy's shoulder and crawling she is just changing and coming into her own so much. I love it.

So because I treat my blog like a journal I have to record these little and BIG events for us to look back on.

• Dec 26th, 2009 Brooklynn officially traveled internationally to the USA
• Dec 28th, 2009 She landed in Jamaica and spent 8 days there
• went to daycare for the first time
• starting eating whole bananas
• now loves yogurt,watermelon, pineapple and even had a teeny tiny sip of a strawberry daiquiri, (she got pretty excited and I knew she didn't need anymore than that)
• went down water slides
• went in the ocean
• played in the sand
• slept in bed with mommy and daddy quite a few times (only because we had a king size at the resort), and went right back to her crib when we got home
• loves to play with toys, learned to push buttons and bang things on hard surfaces to make music
• loves to mimic us, "da-da, ma-ma, goo-ga (good girl) are too name the most popular
• officially became a crawler on Jan 12
• is now crawling everywhere and feels totally empowered by it
• started to make strange a little, basically she ALWAYS wants me, or dad but mostly me (bitter sweet)
• likes to play with Max, or pull his hair
• sleeps on her tummy
• sits up in the crib when shes crying
• started waving good-bye finally !

Her Mom and Dad are very proud of her accomplishments and find just as much joy and happiness in them as she does.

Not so loved firsts:

• Jan 11, got really sick, first time vomiting from sickness
• had a febrile seizure
• went to children's hospital
• rode in an ambulance
• first IV
• all in all the worst scare we've ever had
• likes to spit her food out (at me)
