Babysitting Brooke

I tended Brooke last week and Sarah called while I was there and requested that I get another Brooke video because she liked the pole one so much. Let's start off with some photos first. Here's the little sleeping beauty just waking up from her nap.


This is her happy face--after her sad face--when she walked out into the living room and discovered her parents were gone, but then decided she would be okay alone with her Grandma (even though she always calls me "Grandpa").


Here's a video for you, Sarah. Brooke loved the box of shoes that was sitting on the couch. Rebecca had been telling me about their attempts to potty train Brooke and how it wasn't going all that well. Perhaps her lack of enthusiasm on the subject will become evident toward the end of the video. Maybe Rebecca can decipher for us what Brooke is saying when she's babbling. I haven't quite picked up on the Brooke dialect of the English language yet.



Sarah also requested a photo of her sister's enlarging tummy. Here's Rebecca at 7 months pregnant. Still as beautiful as ever!!


And I wanted to include her handsome husband in a photo as well. He is trying to hide the three band-aids on his forehead that are covering the yucky-looking spots where his moles used to be. Moles, band-aids or whatever--he's always very photogenic.


Okay, Sarah, I saved the best Brooke video for last. I was chasing her and got such a kick out of her when she would stop to catch her breath. Funny girl!!!



I guess this whole post was for Sarah's sake. Hope the rest of you enjoyed it also.
