Happy Pioneer Day!!

Well, I guess after camping it's only natural to have a slow week.  Slow enough that my camera forgot to take pictures!  Everyone was very tired through the start of the week and not too much happened around the house.  I started working on bringing my 3D printer back up.  I didn't have much time before Brooke woke up and I had to go get her, but all that's left is to level out the printing plate again, and then I can start calibration!  Hopefully I'll be able to get more work on it soon and have something cool to show.

This week Brooke has started talking a whole bunch!  She mostly says things that sound like "dada" which is great cause she's calling for me!  But then when she wakes up in the middle of the night it's not so great... cause she's calling for me...  It's a lot of fun having her talk more.  When she talks it looks like she's chewing air, so hopefully talking will also help her with chewing her food before she swallows!

I also started making a new food pantry yesterday to replace our book shelf.  We need something with doors because Brooke will start moving around soon, and we don't want her emptying off our shelves all the time.  I'll try to remember to take some early on pictures so I have some before shots, but I didn't remember to take pictures of the boards before I started... oops.

We've also been taking Brooke with us running in the morning.  Monica and I are running a 10 K in about a month, and it ended up the easiest way for Monica and I to both train was to run together and bring Brooke!  She seems to enjoy riding in the stroller for the most part.  We've only had one day so far where she got sad and cried a little.  I'll hopefully remember to take a picture of us out running some time this week cause there's really not a good reason I don't already have a picture of it.

This week we let Brooke try eating a lime for the first time!!!  And... she loves it!  No funny faces or anything.  I also tried the lime to make sure it was sour, and it sure was.  We even gave her a fresh lime half and she bit right into it and loved it!  What a crazy baby!  So that didn't end up being near as funny as anticipated.

Well, I think that's about all that happened around here this week.  Hope things are going great for everyone else out there and that you have a great pioneer day!
