Look who is 13 Months Old!

Poor little Brooke thought that once she hit 1 year old, she would be done with the "sign pictures." Looks like she was quite wrong! Maybe when she is 16 years old...he he he!

It looks like Brooke is finally around 20 lbs. This means she could sit forward facing in the car, but we are planning on keeping her facing the back as long as possible, as they say its safer. She is still only up to 4 teeth, but has been drooling extra lately, so maybe there are more on the way. Brooke is getting really good at eating lots, and lots of different foods. Her favorite food is actually shredded chicken combined with shredded cheese. She is also starting to rebel more about some of the baby foods. She won't eat the mixed vegetable any more, and doesn't like the apples with cinnamon on top. She is also a pro at walking while holding on to your hands, but thinks it is really fun when you let go, and she falls. Silly little girl! We put up our first baby gate this week, but only as a precaution at the top of the stairs, so she now has free rein to craw between her room & ours when we are up stairs.

We picked up this rocking police motorcycle at the nearby flea market, and she just loves it! She is getting really good at getting on and off herself. Unfortunately, the sound doesn't seem to be working, but I guess that actually could be a good thing. She is quite the little stunt artist, as she loves standing while riding it!

We also tried for her typical chair picture, and out of all of them...this one is the best we got! You can definitely, she her personality more and more.
