Brinkley is 9 months old!

Ms. Brinks, you are 9 months old! Only 3 more months to the big number 1! You still seem like such a little baby even though you change each minute. This has been a crazy busy month with a lot of advancements. 

-Weight:16# (you are slowing WAY down, similar to your sister) 

- You are a pro at crawling and managing to get ANYWHERE you want to be. You are also pulling yourself up, walking along furniture, and climbing into and out of things. (It will only be so long before you take a dive out of your high hair like Hadley)

- You get compared to Hadley A LOT! sorry, just part of being a little sister. 

- You are starting to wave

- You are starting to mimick sounds, some by your sister, but the most obvious is the dog barking 

- You are not fond of dogs unless someone is holding you high away from them 

- You took your first long road trip to Wisconsin for the Struska side Thanksgiving

- You met a ton of your cousins, which you didn't particularly like. (You are a but stuck-up but you also aren't used to so many new faces, in your face)

- You've gone to the church nursery 3 times and have been kicked out 3 times, we are still working on that one

- You manage to eat anything and everything you can get your hands on. If you weren't so active you would for sure be a chunky monkey. 

- You stayed the night away from mom and dad for the first time with Uncle Caleb and Aunt Stacia. ( mom had to work and dad was in WI.)

- You are loving interacting with your sister more and more (she may not reciprocate those feelings)
