Brooklynn Gets the Hiccups!

We have yet to take very many videos of Brooklynn because, at this point, a photo basically captures her everyday life. Luckily tonight, we happened to have the video camera out to capture her during a brief moment of hiccups. Brooklynn is not a huge fan of the burp, so hiccups are a regular part of our days!

Brooklynn's Play List

Every day Brooklynn and I listen and sing different songs on the computer. Some songs she likes and reacts to and others she could care less about. Here are Brooklynn's favorites for those of you future babysitters that may need to stop her crying one day!

Songs that put Brooklynn to sleep:

Somewhere Over the Rainbow - IZ
You are my Sunshine- Ann Murray
Cannon in D (it has to be the piano version)

Brooklynn's favorite singer at the moment is Bill Withers. She is a big fan of several of his songs. Her two favorites are Lean on Me and Ain't no sunshine when she's gone.

If you want to make Brooklynn cry just play any Frank Sinatra song.

If you want to make Nick leave the room just ask me to sing any of the above songs. Brooklynn, however, loves when I sing to her!

We are now taking requests . . .

Going for an afternoon stroll

After all the snow and cold weather earlier in the week, today we had a 60 degree day! Brooklynn and I were eager to get out of the house, so we went for an afternoon stroll. Brooklynn is a big fan of going for walks! This is a picture of her bundled up in her new outfit that Mimi and Pops purchased! I posted a few more pictures in the Photo Album.
