10 months

This sweet little gal has entered the double digits! TEN MONTHS! At her checkup a few weeks ago she was 19.6lbs (75%) and only 50% for her length. So for once, we have an average size baby I guess!Brooke crawling (9mo)

Little Brooke is so incredibly sweet. Before I had her, someone told me that the third baby is key as he/she is the one who will hold the entire family together because everyone loves him/her. And for this household, that is exactly the case.

Here are some pics….ready…gogogogogog

Brooke is quite the character, pretty much like everyone in this nuthouse we have. Here is what Brooke’s life is like!

  • LOVES to play either on her own or with her sisters. Sometimes she gets sad that no one is around her and will come searching for us.
  • Army crawls, with one arm only. Sad as she has to be exhausted.
  • Recently began standing on while hold onto the couch. And recently falling while standing as well.
  • Favorite toy is the Leapfrog musical table (without the legs on right now)
  • Goes CRAZY when Greg gets home. Screaming, crawling towards him, kicking. It is so incredibly sweet.
  • Still kicks me like I psycho when I change her.
  • Going through a horrible sleeping phase where she is constantly awoken by poop, sore teeth or just the fact that she misses me.
  • Nurse 3-4 times a day and takes a sippy cup like a champ! Still hates the bottle.
  • SUPER picky eater….won’t even give a noodle a chance! Eats half baby food half table food. Loves little crunchy finger foods.
  • Gets into everything. Figures out how to break, undo and pull apart things. She is GREG 100%Brooke 9mo trouble
  • Still shows her expressions through her eyebrows.

I love to snuggle her in her room – even if that is probably not the best thing to do because all she does is want me! Oh well I guess, she is my last little one. I cannot wait until she starts walking. It is going to be so much fun!!Brooke 9mo under table

Love you Brooke!

Hi Everyone: Glad you had a great trip to Wisconsin to celebrate the birthdays. The photos of Brooke were so cute. I liked the little cousins all together too. Brooke is surely her Daddy's little girl.
We are fine Cole gets home on Friday. Everyone is excited to see him. He has mixed feelings and admits it will be hard to leave all the Elders he has worked with so closely and all the friends he has made and baptized,
We love you all BIG HUGS Grandma Hood
