Baby Comparison!

 They have the same nose.

And the same lips.

What do you think?

Brooke at two months and a few days...

Connor at two months and a few days

July part 2 and 3

July part two was Bill and I and Brooke at home - without Connor!

What to do while the three year old is gone...??

Take pictures of your six week old!

smiles!

and she played - and found the birdie. :)

Bill brings out some good smiles!

July part three was our Barton/Sanders/Davis/Hoffman camping weekend.  Only we didn't camp... well... some of us camped out in the backyard, some of us slept inside... and we did make camp cooker sandwiches, and we had a bonfire every night.  :)

playing with geo-tracks!

Aunt Alison with Brooke :)

Peter-boy!

Very close to the Codorus camping grounds is the swimming pool.  We went on Friday and had a day of fun!

Kevin and Bill went down the slides - can you see Kevin?  The top of his head is barely visible on the left slide! ;)

Our part fish/part boy Connor.  With his water wings on he can swim all by himself!

Swimmer girls Chloe and April! :)

We had lots of fun with everyone!  Go see Alison's blog post (click HERE) to see some more photos from the weekend!

Brooke at two months

Brooke weighed 9 pounds and 12 ounces at her two month check up.  She is now 22 inches long!  She had become quite the smiley girl this month and Dad knows how to get the best ones out of her!  She has started trying to reach for things and also started sleeping through the night.  We have good days and bad days with her eating, but she has come a *long* way since the beginning!  We are excited to see her personality start to show ~ we love you Brooke!

July part 1

The first part of the month included a trip out to introduce Brooke to our family!

We came out on Thursday the 3rd.

Thursday we met Peter, and Aunt Alison and Uncle Kevin met Brooke!

"twin" cousins with Mawna

Brooke really does like Pap - even though it's not showing in this picture! ;)

Brooke also met Great Uncle Paul

and Great Aunt Sandy on Thursday too!

Friday we had a cookout with the local Barton family,
and I made sure to get the four generation picture with Mom-mom B!

Brooke loves the fourth of July! :)

On Saturday we went to meet up with the Gallo family - Selah was a little excited to meet Brooke - can you tell? ;)

Connor loved swimming in the pool with Aunt Christine - the water was cold, but she did it anyway!

Sunday included a picnic at Uncle Paul's and we got another four generation picture with Mom-mom Ritter.

Monday evening we went to meet the Hoffman cousins and a very excited Aunt Chris. :)

Tuesday we came home... minus one kid... Connor got to stay with Mawna and Pap for a few extra days!
