Pops and Gammy come to visit





My mom and dad came to visit the week before Christmas to hang out. Brooks loved it when Pops would sing him songs, and Brooks had lots of fun spending time with Gammy. Here are just some random pics from their visit.

zzzz....

Brooks has always been a great sleeper (praise God); he started sleeping through the night at 8 weeks...and he has never had a problem since. He used to sleep on this little incline mattress thing, and I would come in in the morning and I would find him with his head wedged in-between the sides (mind you, he was swaddled). And then there was the time that I found him swaddled and he had rolled over on his tummy. The other morning, this is how I found him...


And maybe it doesn't look like much, but I actually put him in on his back with his feet at the other end of the bed. So not only did he roll to his tummy, but first he turned his body 180 degrees. He's going to be one of those kids who never sits still.

A Boy and His Dog




So recently Brooks has really been interested in Kansas. The other day, Chad and Kansas were playing rough and Brooks was just watching and cracking up. And Brooks will be sitting on my lap and just watching Kansas walk around. Kansas is such a good dog, and he'll come up and let Brooks just pull on his hair, stick his fingers in his nose, etc. Kansas is real gentle with Brooks and I think they are going to grow up to be good friends. I got some pictures of them hanging out the other day in Brooks' room.
