Sisters

I love watching Megan interact with Brooke. She loves to give her kisses and hugs and make her smile. Brooke loves watching Megan play--it will be fun to watch her learn to join in someday.

September Highlights

The rest of September flew by! Brooke turned 2 months old and weighed in at 13 pounds even (what a chunker--90th percentile). Megan is part of a little music class on Tuesdays at our house and that's been a fun way to get to know people in the ward better (plus Megan loves singing and dancing with other silly girls). I'm on the enrichment committee and we had our Super Saturday on Sep. 19. It was a lot of fun and I ended up with a very cute FHE board. Other than that, we went to craft days at Granny's house (where my sister-in-law, mom, and I have lunch, chat, and occasionally work on a project), had playdates, and tried to stay cool in that last long stretch of heat.

Here's our little smiling Brooke on 9/9/9:

And our crazy dancing Megan (also on 9/9/9):

Brooke's Blessing

Brooke was given a name and a blessing in church on September 6, 2009 by her Dad. Both Grandpas stood in the circle along with the Bishopric and her Uncle Shad. The blessing was beautiful and we are so grateful to have our sweet little Brooke in our family. It was a really nice, low-key Sunday. We loved being surrounded by family and friends. My Mom, sister (Carrie) and little brother (Tyler) joined Dan's parents and Grandma and our family for a little lunch after our meetings.
