So lots of fun things have happened since my last post. First, Brooklyn had her one month birthday! She's already 6 weeks now, but we were so excited when she turned one month old! We tried to have a birthday party for her, we invited a few friends and I made a tasty fruit pizza... but Brian and I must really be losers cause none of our friends came...haha. But it was still and exciting day for our little girl to be one month old. I really can't believe how quick it passed. I still feel like we just barely brought her home from the hospital. She is finally starting to grow. She has outgrown most of her Newborn clothes, and pretty much all of her 0-3 month stuff fits pretty well now, even though some of it still looks a little big. She is now in what I like to call her "awkward phase," because she has baby acne and she's loosing her hair. A little farther down I have posted some pictures of the stages of her balding haha. She is growing well and getting cuter and more lively each day.
We also had a fun Memorial Day on May 25th. We went out to Brian's parents' in Bountiful and spent the day with family. We had a BBQ and played outside and just had fun chillin'. Brooklyn is such a good baby, it's nice that we can go out places and know that she will be just fine and happy.
Then on May 26th I went to the Taylor Swift concert! Brian bought me 2 tickets so that I could bring a friend and he would stay home with the baby. So I brought my friend Dawn, it was her very first concert! We had a blast. I love Taylor Swift's music and the concert was really good. I was so grateful to Brian for thinking of me and getting me tickets. He is always watching out for me and wants to make sure that I get the chance to go out sometimes so I don't go crazy being cooped up in a house with an infant all day long ever day. He's such a great husband.
This weekend is youth conference for our stake, and since me and Brian are both in Young Men's and Young Women's, we have gotten to participate a little. Brian went with the youth to Salt Lake City yesterday for a few different activities, and to do baptisms at the temple this morning, and last night I went to chaperone the dance! I think the reason that I was put into Young Women's was so that I could go to the dances and get my groove on! I had a blast! I love the young women! We have so much fun together, this is by far the best calling I have had so far!
Well anyways, that's what we've been up to these days :)



Here are the pictures of Brooklyn's stages of balding...
STAGE ONE


I was so sad to see her start balding. It has started in the fron of her head and is working it's way back... so she looks like an old man haha. She's still adorable though.

Side View. Still lots of hair, but definitly a big bald spot there!

View from the back. As you can see, she still has tons of hair in the back at this point. To date she hasn't started loosing any hair in the back, but it is getting shorter as the rubs it off by moving her head around as she sleeps on her back.
STAGE TWO
And it keeps moving its way back...

View from the top of her head.
STAGE THREE
By now she is very bald and very old manish!



Front/Side view, still balding.... still adorable!

I love this last one. A front on picture. You cans see she still has lots of hair sticking up in the back, but absolutely nothing in the front! Hilarious!
