introducing in her inaugural performance...brennan!

brennan has been so funny lately. she has discovered her voice and uses every chance she has to practice her new noises. we went up to frisco this last weekend and shared a room with her in the basement so our friends matt, jess, and their girls could take the top floor. i realized that a big perk of sharing a room with my little babe was that in the morning as she woke up i got to hear all of her little noises. she wakes up chatting... ba ba ba... bttthhhhhhh...... ba ba ba! sweet sweet little voice of hers.

the raspberry noise seems to be a universal communication tool in her mind. it is intermixed with her ba's and ma's, but then if she is upset for any reason (typically when we have to wipe her ever-running nose, darn teething) out comes the raspberry again. it seems to say 'i'm so happy!' one minute and 'how dare you!!' the next. funny little one.

in an effort to capture all of her newfound noises, i have had our camera stuck in her face for the last week. most times, she is completely captivated by the camera and crawls over to me instead of performing or the only video i capture of her is frustrated fussiness. finally, i think i got a cute one that demonstrates her voice in all of its 9 month glory. she gets very serious in the middle, you can almost see her little brain working so hard to make a sound, but this was the best video i could get for now. enjoy!
