WE’RE MOBILE!!

YIKES!! She’s figured out how to do actual crawling now! On Friday and Saturday, she did some “bear crawling” where she has both hands and both feet on the ground and her bottom up in the air, and she moved like that a little bit. Well, on Sunday (yesterday), she figured out the knees. At first, she actually lunged both knees forward together. We thought that surely had to be harder, and what abs she must have!!?? But, then she figured out it was much easier to do one knee at a time. She wasn’t going many “steps” or whatever you call it, and she wasn’t really graceful about it (very jerky movements), but she was moving forward. Today, she’s doing it a lot better. She’s going further and getting smoother. Then, there are times where she throws a little of everything together — a little army crawling, then some bear crawling, then to the traditional crawl. It’s pretty funny to watch her. We have some video of it, but we’ll have to get it on the computer and then to youtube. Hopefully, I can get Stephen to do that today.

She’s also cruising a little bit. I told you that she took a couple of sidesteps on the couch recently. Well, on Saturday, she was going all around the ottoman that she pulls up on. She’s slow about it, and you don’t even realize she’s doing it until you see that she’s on the other side of the ottoman. We also got some footage of that, which is below. So, I’m getting really scared with how mobile she thinks she needs to be so soon. She’ll be 8 months this coming Sunday. At this rate, she’ll be walking next week! HAHA!! Just kidding!

Well, Stephen is leaving me tomorrow. He’s had enough! My ornery nature has finally done him in! Ok, just kidding. He’s just going to Philidelphia for some business trip. I’m not looking forward to being here with Abriella until Saturday all by myself though. I always look forward to when he gets home from work. She’s a lot of work! Anybody wanna come for the week?? Well, I should close now. Enjoy the video below. I’ll try to get the crawling video up soon.
