I have made great strides in my mobility this past week!

Last weekend I learned to sit up all by myself.  I roll onto my stomach and then move into a sitting position.  And you know what?  Once I made it past that hurdle, I was ready to move on!

Now that I understood how to move my legs around, I began playing around with crawling and standing.  On Tuesday the school told Daddy they saw me crawl, but Daddy and Mommy couldn't get me to repeat more than a lunge.  It took a couple more days for me to really get everything together.  Then, on Saturday, I crawled about 6 "steps", for a total of about 6 feet.  Now I practice a little with a mixture of crawling and rolling.  It gets me around the living room pretty well. 

Daddy also showed me how to hang onto the ottoman to hold myself on my feet.  A couple times I have crawled over to the ottoman and stood up.  Daddy says once I learn to quit standing on my tippy-toes I might be able to start walking!

Because of all this new mobility, Mommy and Daddy moved my crib down a notch.  Mommy was worried because most mornings over the last week she would come to pick me up and I'd be on my knees, peeking over the rail to see when someone was coming.  For some reason she seemed to think I might launch myself right over the railing!  So, they moved the mattress lower.  I showed them, though - now it is just the right height for me to pull myself up to a standing position!  It is much more fun now to sit and play in the crib!
