Brooke is 11 Months Old

Our little Brooke Brooke has turned eleven months old!  I can't believe how fast time has gone by.  She is getting so big and she is so cute!  Brooke thinks that she is grown up and that she should be able to do everything that Lydia does.  Here are some things that she has been up to:
**Brooke can stand by herself and can take multiple steps
**Brooke has three bottom teeth and two top teeth and one tooth poking its way through on the top and the bottom.
**Brooke loves to play peek-a-boo.
**Brooke loves to crawl all over the place and play with toys.
**Brooke is good about playing toys by herself.  She will crawl from one thing to the next but she can entertain herself.
**Brooke also likes to be held and to have someone play with her.
**Brooke loves to play on the rocking horse.  She will go to it and hug it and give it kisses and whine until we put her on it.  Once she is on it she sits there forever and gets mad if you try to take her off.
**Brooke loves to play in the Cozy Coupe car.  She can climb into it by herself.  She can open and close the door and she also stands behind it and pushes it all over the room.
**Brooke likes to sleep with a little giraffe that plays music.
**Brooke loves to wrestle.  Brooke will come and climb all over us if we are sitting or laying on the floor.
**Brooke wants to be right by Lydia.
**Brooke is a good little eater and will eat pretty much anything we feed her.  She still likes people food the best and she knows if you are giving her something different from what we gave Lydia.
**Brooke loves to make noises.  She copies most noises that Lydia makes and Lydia copies the noises Brooke makes too!
**Brooke likes the tall mirror in our bedroom.  She stands up by it and dances and kisses it.
**Brooke loves to dance.  Anytime she hears music she stops what she is doing and bounces up and down.
**Brooke loves to look through books.
**Brooke likes to look out windows.
**Brooke will wave out the window when Justin is leaving for work.  She will wave whenever she hears a car starting up.
**Brooke won't hold still while we are changing her diaper.
**Brooke has to have toys to play with while she is eating her bottle.

 **Brooke likes to take baths but just wants to play and doesn't want to hold still to get her hair washed (Justin gives the girls baths almost every time).
**Brooke likes to play the piano.
**Brooke loves Daisy.  She climbs all over her.
**If I make a kissing sound Brooke will open her mouth and give me a kiss.
Brooke really is a happy baby.  She has her moments here and then when she gets pretty fussy, but for the most part she is a happy girl.  She loves when people talk to her and play with her. 
 
Brooke really is a blessing to have around.  She knows right when she needs to crawl up to me and give me a big hug!  She is a little sweetheart.
