Family Pics 2009

Thankfully, I am surrounded by wonderful people! Not only do I have a wonderful family, but I have wonderful friends who do so much for me. Thanks Kambrala for taking these pictures!

These are the Nelson kids!

April, James (Kyleigh's fiancee), Kyleigh, Jarett, Alex, me and Brooklee

Reading time = Sleepy time?

One evening, Brooklee really wanted to "read" a book. She was so into it, she even turned the pages herself.

Look at her go!

Then out of nowhere, I looked at her and she had passed out. I guess I don't blame her, reading in the evening makes me tired too!!

Many faces of Brooklee

Many know Brooklee as one of the happiest babies around, but as shown in these pictures, she has many faces that have developed lately!

I love her eyebrows in this pic- hey hey!!

She has been teething lately and who knew that with teething came bi-polar symptoms.

This is the "You know I am adorable and don't need a smile to prove it" look!

6 pics for being 6 months!

One night I went to check on Brooklee while she was sleeping, and this is what I found. What is she doing?

Mommy's cell phone is the most wanted "toy"-she's even scooted over just to get her hands on it.

When we go to visit her friends, Lillie and Lucy, Brooklee loves to jump around in their exersaucer.

Even though Brooklee would love to have hair like Lucy, they are such good friends.

We inherited my father in laws old dog Junior and although I am not a huge fan of the dog, Brooklee and I have enjoyed bundling up and going on walks with the dog every morning.

And Brooklee loves to take naps after kicking in the stroller on the walk.

5 pics of a 5 month old

On my 25th Birthday, Brooklee and I went to church matching in my favorite color-
YELLOW!!!!

The orange onesie says it all- Brooklee enjoyed her first Halloween.

The Cutest Tigger Ever! Nothing more to say!

I'm sure Alex wouldn't like me posting this pic, but I had to.
Dad's truly to get the best part of parenting- coming home to play!

Brooklee has mastered sitting and loves to sit on the floor and play with her toys.
She is tried ever so hard to move while on her tummy- only to go around in circles.

4 pics 4 a 4 month old

Ok so there are a ton of pics I had to choose from, but I didn't want to overwhelm anyone, so here are a few.

Here's Brooklee enjoying her first trip to the Phx Zoo. Tons of fun!!

The first flower headband that went perfectly with her outfit! Thanks to:
My niece Abby for the adorable dress she picked out;
Becky for the cute flower with rhinestones on it;
Traci for the last minute help with the headband to finish off this outfit.

Although I have struggled with the adjustment of staying at home-
I absolutely love the huge grin on this little girl!

I had to add this hilarious pic of Brooklee trying rice cereal. Alex decided she need to messier!

Grandma is so funny!!

This video is too cute! She has the most adorable laugh ever! Love it!
