Brigham Robert Brady

I can't believe he is already ten months old.  This kid is spunky, crazy, funny, happy, opinionated, teething, crawling, standing (but not on his own).



I feel like I haven't dedicated as many posts to Brigham's growth and development in his first year.  So many changes go on in such a short time.  I have hardly done them justice in documenting.  He started crawling at nine months.  He did a scoot for about a week and then was on hands and knees.  He just started teething this past month and that has been rough.  He now has the two bottom teeth in but is getting two more on top.  Though not the two front ones.  Haha, hopefully they are soon behind.  Brigham is a mama's boy.  He wants to be held, a lot.  He wants me to put him to sleep and comfort him when he wakes up.  He kind of goes crazy when things aren't like he expects them to be.  Don't get me wrong though, he loves his daddy.  He gets super excited when Jon gets home.  He kicks his legs, scrunches his nose and growls; that's when you know he's pumped.  He wants to play with Vanessa and Benson like his one of the crew.  The call him "the destroyer."  Vanessa will ask me all the time, will you just hold the destroyer? 
Every once in a while, this kid will bust up laughing, for what seems like no reason.  His laugh is contagious and soon we are all laughing about nothing other than laughing.  He loves to play peek a boo.  Anytime there is a blanket in reach, he throws it on his head and waits for us to look for him. 
He is still pretty rough with Benson, but Benson is a good sport.  We assure him Brigham is still learning to be soft and doesn't mean to hurt him.  They do love each other and I love watching them when they laugh and play together.
