Brooke Videos

A certain little girl came to visit and instead of going to the toy bucket to find something to play with, this is what she did...




This video shows Brooke playing with the potatoes. Note that at the end she does recognize she's made a big mess.



And look at her sweet, sleeping sister. Caroline is such a good baby she doesn't even have to be rocked to sleep. Rebecca just rolls her up, burrito style, puts her down anywhere and that's all it takes to get her to sleep.



What a cute smile she has when she's awake!


Sarah requested a video of Brooke praying and once I'd complied with her wishes, she told me she was just joking about the video. But, I'm posting it anyway. Note how Brooke tries so hard to keep her eyes closed and her arms folded while she snitches food and eats it while saying the prayer.



After dinner it's more playtime for Brooke. She kept getting containers out of the pantry to line up because she was counting. The ice cream lids became her stepping stones from one side of the kitchen to the other.




I didn't get the camera out in time to document the mess Brooke made upstairs while Rebecca and I were trying to figure out how to work the new sewing maching. Just use your imagination on that one...

Rebecca commented on the last post that I'd neglected to mention some visitors during my recuperation period. Keep in mind that the visitors I'd been receiving up to this point had all brought me a lunch or a dinner, thus helping me out in some way. When little visitor Brooke and her mother and sister came to visit, I cooked THEM dinner. What's up with THAT??!!??

Man, the Goldens have really condensed the "food prayer." What a little rascal!

Brooke shouldn't be too hard to please at Christmas, just get her some potatoes and plastic lids. Funny girl!

Emma thinks Brooke's potatoe song is funny and wondered if she was allowed to play with those potatoes.

The Goldens haven't shortened the food prayer...just ONE Golden has.
