Spoken Like a True Four Year Old…

Sunday, January 10th, 2010

I’m getting dressed today when Brook walks into my bathroom and asks what we are going to do today…

Me:   “We are going to go and buy new bedding for you bedroom.”

Brook:  “No thank you, it doesn’t sound like fun.”

Me:  “But, it’s for your bedroom…we will have fun.”

Brook:  (Rolls her eyes while saying this) “Shopping is boring Mom.”

Spoken like a true four year old!

Picture Update…

I thought I would talk about the past week through pictures, so here it goes…

Brook Pulling Her Beach Toys

So last week was quite warm…actually it was crazy hot and yes I loved it!  So we decided to take Daddy and Blake and head down to our beach on Browns Lake.  The water was as warm as a bath which makes me wonder what wonderful things are growing in there that we in turn voluntarily splash around in.  If I put my germaphobe thoughts aside, we had a blast swimming around and catching Brook as she jumps off of the pier.

Brook also picked her first tomato of the season off of our tomato plant.  She was very proud of it and is showing it off in this next image.

Brook Showing Off Her Tomato

We promptly took it inside to get it washed up, sliced and salted and she ate the whole thing in three seconds flat.  That’s my girl!

Blake recently hit yet another milestone…he is now eating some solids!  So far we have given him applesauce and peaches…he thinks peaches are far yummier than the applesauce.  Here he is in all of his eating glory…

And finally, here is Brook trying on Daddy’s hat while Daddy is telling her he’s gonna teach her how to be the best woman poker player ever!  Let’s hope so, she could make a lot of money that way…
