On the Move

My sweet little baby who was so content to sit on the floor and play has decided it is time for her to make a move. She started out simple and easy.

She learned to sit herself back up when she was on her back or tummy. This was a huge deal around our house. No more whining because she was "stuck". Thank goodness. It didn't take her long to master her new trick.

She soon moved on to something more challenging. She started pulling up in her crib. She was so proud of herself. Until we were able to lower her crib mattress I would have to watch and go put her back down every time she stood up. It was a fun little game to her.
Josh lowered her mattress but no one told her that meant the game was over. She would stand up and look straight at the door waiting for me to come in. Sometimes she would even wave.

She thought she would test her skills outside of the crib and started pulling up on everything.

If only she could get from place to place she would have so many things to pull up on. I think this occurred to her because she finally started...

...crawling.

Watch out world, Sadie is mobile.

She crawls all over the place pulling up on whatever catches her eye.

I will say though she really doesn't like crawling. She isn't very fast and it frustrates her so she has started trying to stand up. She will extend both legs and try to push herself up. She doesn't get very far but she keeps trying. I'm sure it is only a matter of time before she masters that skill as well.
