11 Months

We went to Mimi's house and had so much fun.  We had Brooklyn's first beach trip, and we went quite a few times after that.  We also visited great grandma and grandpa.  Chris also enjoyed his first Father's day.

and his bouquet of Oreo cookies.

First Father's Day!

She got into the recyclables and apparently enjoyed it.

First time at the beach, she loved the sand especially.  She didn't even mind the waves hitting her while she played in the sand.

We had a wonderful vacation in Maryland at Nana and Papa's house.  It was so great being able to visit with friends and family, and we loved being able to introduce Brooklyn to our loved ones!  Here are some pictures from that trip, plus some from just little things that happened while she was 9 and 10 months old.

Her first time going up the stairs all by herself.  She was a natural.

Her first tooth didn't come until she was 9 months old!

Her first plane ride, which we think went very well.

It was hard to keep her occupied at the airport, but we managed.

She's constantly trying to stand, but she still can't without holding on to something.

How she likes to sleep now.

Baby running shorts!

Hangin' with daddy

Just finished her snack.

She likes to blow in and out of her nose really fast, this is the resulting face.  Cuteness!

That's our little girl in the last month.  Where has time gone?  She is growing fast!  We love you Brooklyn!  Oh, and I had an amazing Mother's Day, Chris cooked amazing meals, and even made me cheesecake!  He also made a craft with Brooklyn for me.  It was the best first Mother's Day I could have imagined.
