Mini Milestones

Brooks turned 11 months old on Sunday. It's hard to think we will soon have a one year old, but I can't say that time flies. I've really enjoyed watching Brooks grow and reach all of the little milestones.

He is not just a crawler now, he has the most incredible upper body strength and can pull up on anything in less than a second. Those little feet just roll and pop him up. He likes to get into the basket of DVD's and pull them out one at a time. The couch is another favorite hang out as well as any window sill.


We are still in the phase where everything goes in his mouth. It really lets you know when it's time to sweep. :) Brooks is slowly learning a few other things like how to pump the spinner to make the balls swoosh around, how to put his hands in the air to say he's all done with dinner and the "Indian" call will soon be heard. I did get to see him clap the other day for the first time. His motor skills need a little refining, but it's still a clap.




Brooks' personality is also fun to watch. He's way more interactive and expressive. This goes both ways... bad when he tries to eat the dirt out of the plant and I won't let him and good when Daddy comes home from work to play with him. This is video of Justin playing chase with Brooks.




In four weeks we'll be talking about Brooks' turning a year old and I can't wait.
