Brooke's Week 7: Happy Birthday to Dad!

Here is Brooke at 7 weeks old.


This week we went on a field trip to Scott's office. Brooke thought it would be nice to bring him lunch on his birthday. She even did a little work for him while in the office. I guess she thought he was behind in his emails and spreadsheets.
Later that day we celebrated his birthday at home. Brooke grilled up some steaks, baked a cake, and sang the family birthday song to him.

In other events this week, Brooke managed to pee, poop and spit up on Mom all in 24 hours (3 different incidents while Mom was holding her). Ah, motherhood is so glamorous.

We also ventured out for our first meal in a restaurant with Brooke. We drove into the parking lot at the first restaurant and quickly nixed it -- there was obviously a long wait with people milling around outside the door. Waiting wasn't in the cards for us. We went to a "faster" option, and she did well; even fell asleep while we ate. (Mom was "dreading" the trip as Brooke hadn't slept much that day so I was fearing the worst)

Other shots from the week...snoozing in Mom's lap, A test in black & white. I wonder if this is how Maddie sees Brooke?
Here's a parting smile from Brooke in her pj's getting ready for bed.
