Brooklyn has surpassed Taylor's development at the same age. And that's really scary. Of course, Taylor only had mom and dad to model after and since both of us were in pertepual awe and shock, she was rather passive (oh yeh, that was before she turned seven months). Now, with a 4½ and 2½ year old rampaging through our lives, we are seriously considering a third child. You know, one who can watch them while we move to another town. Both girls are enjoying attending a day care center and interacting with other critters their own age. Taylor can now keep her crayon coloring inside the lines and Brooklyn keeps hers on the bedroom walls. Taylor is still Miss Priss when it comes to eating, clothing and general appearance. Brooklyn proudly displays her food and I doubt if we will need to worry about make-up for many years to come (at least not till tomorrow). Brooklyn says, "if you can't squish it on your face, if you can't get it muddy or it doesn't come out of your nose, then it can't be fun. Taylor has begun dance lessons thanks to Shari's mom. She is learning tap dancing and ballet - that's what she says anyway.
