Brooklyn 1 Year 6 Months

Brooklyn you are already a year an a half old and I am struggling realizing you are half way to two years old. I won't have a baby anymore and usually I have one coming. You will make the best big sister one day but until then you need to slow done princess. Brooklyn at 1 year 6 months old...

1. Brooklyn is a soccer fan. Brooklyn is so good when it comes to kicking a soccer ball around (even other guys who watch her skills are so impressed). Brooklyn loves playing with balls outside and always seems to gravitate towards the black and white ones. Brooklyn is going to be my little sports star!


2. Brooklyn went and saw her first baptism. Brooklyn watched her cousin Jessie get baptized and in Brooklyn's eyes she wanted to go and play in the water too. I never realized how much kids love to watch baptisms.


3. Brooklyn celebrated Easter. Brooklyn didn't quite understand Easter this year but she enjoyed getting an endless supply of chocolate and of course an Elsa doll of her very own. Brooklyn wasn't to interested in finding the hidden Easter eggs this year but it was still so cute to watch her get so excited with her basket.



4. Brooklyn loves puppies. Brooklyn ever since Christmas when she chose out her very own stuffed animal from Grandpa and Grandma Redd has been loving puppies. Of course when it comes to real animals Brooklyn will still keep her distance but stuffed animals are the bomb.


5. Brooklyn went to Disneyland. Brooklyn did so well on the drive to Disneyland and actually didn't complain much in the car and slept so much. Brooklyn was very hesitant with all of the rides and it took her a day or two to warm up. Brooklyn ended up really enjoying the Winnie the Pooh, Ariel and It's a small world. Brooklyn also enjoyed pointing to all the characters but didn't want to be to close to them.


6. Brooklyn loves to say cheese for pictures. Brooklyn has the best little photo cheesy smile and it's the cutest thing ever. I honestly hope Brooklyn loves these all when she is older because she has a ton because Mom loves it just so much!


7. Brooklyn waves to everyone. Brooklyn is very much a people person but she has to warm up to them before really being comfortable. Brooklyn will wave to everyone and its the cutest thing to see other peoples faces light up as they wave back to the cutest little baby girl ever! Brooklyn also is a pointer. When she points she will pat her hand on you over and over again till you look at her then she will point at whatever she wants you to look at. It's the cutest thing as she keeps patting and patting. I love you my princess Brooklyn.


8. Brooklyn is uneasy about swimming. Brooklyn went swimming twice while we were on our vacation in Disneyland. Each time Brooklyn had to be right up close in moms arms and no where else but leaning against Momma (Brooklyn gives the best hugs). On the Disneyland trip Brooklyn was a Mommas girl and it was the best feeling in the world. Brooklyn doesn't remember Mom being at home to much since I am always working at the sleep clinic. Brooklyn enjoyed all the time she got to spend with Mom for a change.


9. Brooklyn is growing up so quickly. Brooklyn is weighing in at 23lbs and is 33 inches tall. Brooklyn is about 75% for both her height and weight combined, I don't know where my baby went. Brooklyn is also talking a lot more clearly and basically can understand what anyone tells her and is able to relay messages back quite well.


Brooklyn Riley my princess you are growing into such an amazing little girl. You have this love for people and life that I strive to be like you each day. You have taught your mother so much already in your short life and I can't wait to continue to watch and learn from you each and every day. Brooklyn I love you so much, never forget that you mean the world to me!
