How do I get the almost 9 month old to stop

crawling all over her big brother?

All she wants is to be with him.  On him, touching him, in his toys, etc.  No matter where you put her, now that she is mobile (and fast), she make a bee line for big brother. She loooves her big brother!

He's great with her, but getting a little sick of it, and I guess I can't blame him. Although it is pretty cute.  Nothing distracts her for long.  It's getting old!  Ideas?

Baby gate.  We have one that blocks of the hallway to older DD's room.  It prevents DS from getting into her room which is not "baby safe" and gives DD a physical barrier that she can control.  She plays a lot in the hall, which is nice because it runs between our family room/kitchen and her bedroom, so I can see and hear her.

We have a baby gate on the outside of our playroom. When DD needs a little break from DS he and I go into the living room, and DD gets the playroom all to herself. Also her room is off limits to him, she can go in and shut the door whenever she pleases.

Unfortunately baby gates aren't really an option.  Our bedrooms are upstairs and DS wouldn't stay up there by himself and the downstairs (playroom, kitchen, tv room) is a big wide open floor plan.  But, maybe I'll have to find a way to at least block off the play room from the rest of the downstairs.  Hmmm.
