Of course it is almost a month late so I don't totally remember the details of month 9-10 vs. 10-11, I will write down what I do remember had changed. Actually month 9 for Brooke was a big one! The week that Brooke turned 9 months she FINALLY started to crawl forward! We were SO EXCITED to see her on the move! Right away Brooke began standing up on things, crawling under things, getting into things, cruising along things, she just became a very busy girl. It seems the week she began to crawl she also found her voice. We are pretty sure her voice became a few octaves higher! She loves to scream and squeal! It is usually a happy scream or squeal but I can also tell when she is getting super tired by a special screech she now does ;) Brookes cute little personality seemed to just bloom at 9 months. She has been a big time chatter, she copy's sounds so well it is impressive. We are pretty sure her first word was Baby (ba ba). She calls her reflection in the mirror ba ba, she also calls babies on tv ba ba. If you ask her to say baby she will "usually" say ba ba. Brooke gained a deep love for doors, opening and shutting them over and over again. O and Brooke freaked me out a little bit as well this month. It was looking like she was trying to give up her first nap right after she started to crawl. I tried a day without it and decided nope she needs 2 naps still. I stuck to making her try to nap twice and am so thankful I did. That phase passed thank goodness! I think that is what I want to remember most about month 9-10 is that she started to crawl, talk, get CRAZY, scream, and just bloom! What a busy and proud month we have had! We love our little BUG!
