Oh my gosh!!! So exciting!!!

Brooklyn put up quite a fight last night going to sleep in her crib,we are trying to get her to sleep in it all night long. Well, lately she falls asleep pretty quickly, two songs that I sing to her, and she only sleeps in her crib for two hours. Then she comes to bed with us. But last night, she struggled to go to sleep, and finally after nine different five minute songs, she fell asleep. I had decided that since I had managed to survive that that I would just stick to my guns and not let her into bed with us all night. But it turned out that Brooklyn ended up sleeping for a whopping 9 hours in her crib, she still isn't up to the 11 that she sleeps every night, but we might get there sooner than 2011. I was soooo excited!!!

Brooklyn is practically unstoppable lately. She is constantly going from room to room messing everything up and just having a blast. It makes for a very tired mommy who spends her day trying to run after her and clean up the mess as it happens, as it turns out, that doesn't work when you have a one year old. I miss the days that I could just spend one of her naps cleaning bottles or whatever and not have to worry about cleaning up her messes because she was too little to make them. But these days are much more interesting. Filled with conversations with puppies and dolls and chairs, pretty much anything that she has at eye level. And she just loves to dance.

She loves all kind of music, and has different dances for different types. She has a 'rocknroll' dance, a 'kiddie' dance, and the 'funny' dance that she does to make people laugh. I'm dreading winter with such a crazy go go go baby. She loves playing outside! I try to take her to the park on a regular basis. I'm pretty sure she would be elated if I took her everyday three or four times a day. LOL.

I think that's it for now... I managed to sneak some time in during naptime(SHHH don't tell her I put her down to talk to you all). I'll try to get some more pictures on here.

God Bless!
