Early Present

If anyone has noticed, I've been posting a few more blogs lately than I used to.  One reason for this is just the busy time of year with a lot going on to post about, but I think the main reason is that we bought Brooks an early Christmas present this year.  We ordered him a slide from Step 2 and gave it to him a couple of weeks ago. He absolutely loves it! It's really the first 'toy' we've bought that he has been able to keep himself entertained with and doesn't need mommy or daddy to play with him constantly.  We put it up downstairs in our basement, and we have been spending a lot more time down there than we used to.  Since our computer with all our pictures is also downstairs, it's been a lot easier for me to take the time to do updates!

Brooks was excited about the slide the moment he saw the box.

He tried to help daddy put it together.

 Whatcha doing dad?  Are you done yet??

Finally!!

 It has a basketball goal on one side and came with a football, basketball, and soccer ball.  Brooks loves pushing the balls down the slide and going down after them.

So far, best Christmas present he's gotten!  But we'll see after this weekend!!
