A full day for the Brookins family



Tim had his second cup of coffee in his life this morning at 6:15. He is still going strong at close to 8:30 pm. How do you shut this guy off? Talk, talk, talk.
Adam doesn't need coffee. He gets up happy and plays until his 1pm naptime, which at this point I probably need more than he does.
This morning we ran errands that I couldn't finish yesterday. We returned something to the mall and played in the children's play area for awhile. The play area has a bug theme. But more importantly it has a kids news station set up so that the children can watch themselves on tv as you will notice the first picture: Adam is excitedly watching himself on the big screen. Very cool.
We found out there is a library in walking distance from our apartment (we drove) and spent time there. Adam got in a bloody murder screaming contest with a little girl for the fun of it so we didn't last long. That is her in the second picture.
Now the third picture is of sweet innocent Adam reading a book, right? Wrong, the boy has found a suction cup and used it as a paci. Real safe, Adam, when you choke I will just pull over, get out of the car, pull you out of your buckles from the carseat and then procede to get it out of your throat. Way to make things easy for mom.
Tonight was meatball night and we finally found something Adam will eat...besides hotdogs. I had an Awana's meeting at church and Tim studied.
SNOB REPORT: boat shoes are just now the cool thing in Waco... that shows how far behind waco is in fashion seeing that they were popular when lander was a senior in high school.
COLLEGE REPORT: this is John Brookin's first week of college! Remember him in your prayers! and his empty birds nest parents. This is Luke's second week I believe but also keep the lovelaces in mind seeing they are empty nesters too.
Finally, This is Lander and Branden's senior year. (Lander at unc and Branden at usc.)

Got kicked out of the library, huh?! . . . Janet was asked to remove one of her sons from the Tuckahoe Library(guess which one) when he was about the same age as Adam is now . . . Like father, like son!
