Amelia officially started crawling today. She’s been scooting, rolling, flipping and flopping here there and everywhere since she was about 5 months. Tonight she started putting one hand in front of the other and moving her legs at the same time…ie: crawling. She’s done it a few times before, but we didn’t really count them. Somehow this seemed more real. She was of course chasing after poor Spencer’s tail. I just so happened to have the camera in my hand so I got a few shots of her after she completed the feat.
She’s also cruising (walking along furniture) and pulling herself up on everything! Her favorite thing to do is to stand on the sofa and play peek-a-boo with one of us over the back of the sofa.
We also had to start baby proofing a bit…boo. Dustin found her this afternoon playing with an electrical outlet. Yes, the little plastic plugs are now in place. Now we just have to figure out what to do about the litter box and cat food bowl before she’s really off and running. Fun times.
Here are a few other pictures of Amelia from this afternoon. She’ll be 8 months on Monday…how time flies!
