Newsflash! Houston: We Have Mobility

Emma just sat up and scooted!

I was in the room with her and she was on all fours, practicing her Down Dog and then left for a moment. When I came back, she was sitting up and closer to the box she's been "talking" to for the last 5 minutes!

Figures!

Then, while I watched, she leaned over from her sitting position and pulled herself closer to the box. Scootching! The Down Dog position helped her to figure out how to sit back up from all fours. Awesome! All the while she's been saying da-da-da and blowing raspberries. Also a first. (She started saying da-da-da on Saturday.)

She just did it again!

Eek!

You know what this means: it's time to set up some barriers to mobility. Isn't that obnoxious? Hooray! You've figured out how to roughly get from Point A to Point B! Now that you've learned how to move around, we have to contain you.

Ahhh, parenting!

  3. Oh no, I can sit down. I just can't STAY seated!

Start talkin'. I'm all ears! No, really. Spill! Otherwise it's just me and the voices in my head.

Sorry about the switch to Word Verification. I suddenly seem to have come to the attention of a bunch of spammers. I still love to read your comments, though!
