Brooke

This little man is growing and changing so fast. He is a complete joy to my soul. He is happy. He lights up when he sees me or Bill....or Blanca, Katey, Brooke, mom or Rob. He points at you, then leans in for you to pick him up. He will study my face...pointing to my lips, my eyes. Then, with a great big, open mouth, he leans in for a kiss. Ohhhhhhhhh! I love it so much.
He isn't a "walker" yet, but has taken 4-5 steps. He is just in too much of a hurry to try. He is fine with crawling at insanely fast speeds. He is into everything. Opening cabinets, pulling out the newspaper, looking at sockets, and wanting his paws all over anything in Gracie and Camille's rooms. About them. They are the worlds best big sisters.

They get in the pack and play and play with him. They talk to him, watch him, take harmful objects out of his way, prevent him from going up stairs, etc. He completely lives for them. I mean, he really loves Bill and me, but we don't hold a candle to his sisters. OH GOD, I AM SO THANKFUL.

If the girls go upstairs to play the Wii, he just cries and cries for me to take him too- he likes to go to the playroom, and sit in a little bear chair of the girls and hop around in it! He also likes their little pink chairs! Man, we really need to get him some of his own stuff!

Brookie just is peaceful and fun. Curious and loving. His smile lights up a room. His mimicks make us laugh, the way he snuggles down with his "lovie", sucks his thumb and goes straight to sleep makes me cry. A true little angel. Thank you God, for sending him to this family.....we are very thankful. We have been blessed.
