9 Months

So I know we are about to 10 months but most of what I will share she has been doing sense 9 months.

obsessed with buttons, the electronic kind (all though she also really likes the ones on your clothes as well) that turn iphones on and off. She hold it down long enough for the voice control and then often accidentally starts calling someone or face timing someone. One time Dave was holding her while I was showing him something on the computer and all the sudden the screen goes black. yup you guessed it. She also is very precise with pressing the enumerable buttons that make music, tell her colors, shapes, and numbers, and other noises on her toys.

Brielle has become aware of her tough and is often found striking out especially when she is concentrating pulling all of the wipes out of there container.

She is in the phase of take everything out of baskets and drawers. Her favorite is the diaper drawer.

She loves to while standing turn and let gravity propel her to the ground and then shes off and crawling as fast as she can.

She can't get enough of walking with your fingers or with some kind of walker but hasn't dared go out on her own.

She is scared of stairs which is kind of a blessing. She will crawl up the bottom step and then sit there and cry like she is hurt until you come rescue her.

We use to be worried about her verbal development but know you know she's getting into something she's not suppose to when all you here is silence because usually she has an on going babble.

She is still an avid fan of all things food and anytime someone comes into her site with food she is off to their side to beg for some.

she love to point at things especially pictures in books while she turns the pages and babbles as if she is reading it.

She still find lots of humor around her and continues to love chase. She also plays Peek a boo and will even grab a blanket and but it over her head wait and then pop out from under it.

Our latest favorite development is her musicality. The girl loves to dance and in any position. She goes side to side and up and down and waves her arms and shacks her head. So fun to watch. She's got the beat. Her style preference spans the spectrum from jammn Christmas music to the classics of her baby Einstein toy, to nursery songs and church hymns. They all get here little body movin.
