The Slide

It really is amazing how quickly Brooklyn picked up on walking once she figured it out. She is no longer crawling at all. My sister brought this slide over on her birthday and she absolutely loves it. She figured out how to climb up it all by herself and now she tries to climb up the wrong way. She almost made it up to the top on her own and that is when I grabbed the camera so it isn't on here. But it is amazing how big she is getting.

Labor Day Vacuum Fun

This Labor Day weekend we went up to the cabin with my family and went to Swiss Days and boating. I didn't take any pictures really, but I did get this little video of brooklyn riding in the new shop vac vacuum cleaner.

What could it be?????

It's a GIRL!!!!! We are totally surprised! This pregnancy has been so different than my last one that we were convinced that it was a boy. I am very excited to have another girl! We have everything for a girl, so all we need to get is a double stroller, Brooklyn a new carseat, and this new baby a crib set!

Our little baby was cute, when we went to go do the ultrasound, her legs were completely crossed and we couldn't see anything. The ultrasound technician came back a little bit later to see if she had moved, and her hand was down there (At that point we thought FOR SURE it had to be a boy ;). She had to sit and poke at her for a bit to get her to stop hiding from us. When she was able to see, she didn't even tell us it was girl, she just typed "Uh, Oh!!! Girl!!!" We told her that we thought it was a boy, so she thought it would be funny to do that. I think James was in some serious shock at the fact that he was going to be the only boy in a household of 3 girls! He loves his little Brooklyn so much that I don't think he will mind having another little Daddy's girl! He is so great with little girls that I am not one bit concerned. My only concern is that he is going to want to leave me more often on the weekends to do boy things with friends!
