I am going to steal a page from Amy's blog and list Brooklyn's 10 favorite things. I think it is so cute and such a fun way to journal their life.
Little Einsteins (If possible, this would be all 10)
Ring around the Rosy
Mommy
Dada
Her Rose Petal Cottage ("House")
Helping ("I help")
Juice Box
Toy Phone ("Call", ours will not do it has to be hers)
Treats
Airplanes
