Brooke Week 3 -- Happy Father's Day!

Brooke at 3 Weeks Old.
(a new friend joined the picture (on the arm of the chair), a little lamb chosen by Jen's sister's fiance Matt)


Here's a shot of Brooke snoozing in her crib on Saturday, June 14. On Monday, June 16 Brooke went in for her "2 week" check-up. She weighed in at 7 lbs 6 oz, so she's eating well (she was 6 lbs 4oz at birth, then 5 lbs 10oz when we left the hospital, then 5lbs 15oz on "day 4" doctor check-up).
The big highlight of the week of course was Father's Day! Here's proud father Scott with his daughter.

And Scott with his other girl, Maddie.
Earlier in the day Maddie had to get a bath because she jumped in the neighborhood lake during our daily walk. We've walked by that lake for 2 years and all of a sudden today she decides, "Hmm, it's too hot, I'm going for a swim." We enjoyed celebrating Father's Day with Scott's brother Brad and his wife Heather, who flew in Sunday morning for a quick visit to meet Brooke. Here's Heather with Brooke.And Brad with Brooke.

Also celebrating Father's Day with us were Erin and Greg and family. Here's Erin with 2 of their 3 sons, Jack and Thomas.

Sharing some baby news, two of our friends' July babies came about a month early. Congrats to Bob and Anne as they welcomed their son Evan on Wednesday, and congrats to Nicole and her husband Travis as they welcomed their son Tyler.

Congratulations as well to Scott's cousin who was married this weekend. We wish a lifetime of happiness to Kelly and Mike.

And lastly, some parting shots of Brooke taking a snooze.

Maybe if I pretend to keep sleeping Mom will stop taking pictures of me...
