11 Months!

Where did Decemeber go? Better yet where did 2012 go? It seems like just yesterday it was 2011. This past month was a great one.  We spend a lot of time with family and enjoyed many Aggie basketball games.  Mr. Brantley has learned so much this past month.  He will cruise around furniture and even transfer from one piece to another as long as they aren't too far apart.  We have caught him standing and not holding on to anything quite a few times. I just don't think he realizes he is doing it. He is babbling and jabbering even more.  He finally said "mama" this month, although it wasn't directed towards me and he doesn't quite yet have the comprehension to know I'm mama, it made me happy. He now has 9 teeth.  He's 7th one (on the bottom) broke through last week.  I noticed he has two more coming through on the top in the back. (maybe that is why he was a terrible sleeper last night).  He gets into EVERYTHING!  There isn't much that will slow him down.  He loves the stairs and does pretty well I getting up them.  We have to have a gate at the bottom and the top of the stairs.  Those few times when we don't have the gate up at the bottom and he makes it to the stairs he will start giggling and will start to climb the stairs as fast as he can.  He has started to play "tag" with us too.  When we act like we are going to get him he will squeal and crawl away as fast as he can.  He is getting quite the little personality and I love it.  

This past Saturday we went to Temple Square with Fulgham family.  Poor Brantley was tuckered out.  The gloves were in attempt to keep his hands warm and he couldn't pull them off.
