9 months

So Brooklynn has officially been out in the world as long as she was inside my belly. We honestly can't imagine life without her! She is really the best baby we could have ever asked for! Here's what is new with our rapidly growing peanut!


  • She has two teeth... working on more but not yet! Probably next month update we will have more teeth to report.
  • She is a crawling machine! Loves her new found sense of freedom.
  • Brooklynn Loves music. She kind of sways and moves with music. She will clap along too!
  • She loves mama lately! Really wants to be in Mama's arms all the time!
  • The girl can EAT! She gets baby food at each meal still, but only about two ounces. She eats almost everything we do. Still hasn't had nuts or berries, but soon berries. Seriously her favorites are vanilla yogurt, gouda cheese and cottage cheese (she is the dairy queen). She now also loves anything she can pick up!
  • Brooklynn figured out how to climb the stairs! We had to put a gate up.
  • She uses a few words: Mama, Dada, Nana, Ah (Pa), hey, wa (water), uh (up). We love her new found language!
  • She is a bit of a screecher lately. Not sure why she feels the need to screech, but she likes it. I have heard it's just a phase, let's pray its almost done!
  • She follows mama into the kitchen at dinner time. Love this! 
  • She would love to walk ASAP! She pulls up on everything but can't stand without holding onto something.
  • She learned to clap and she gets so proud!


She is so sweet! We love her to pieces! I am so thankful for all the time she grew inside, which makes me that much more thankful for her time with us growing and changing each day!
