It’s official
We have a crawler. It is time for some serious baby proofing around the house. I am amazed at how quickly she moved from trying to crawl to being all over the place. She is not very fast, but she can go pretty much wherever she wants. Here are a few funny stories about her new mobility.
Thursday when I hopped in the shower I put Katherine on the floor of our bedroom with some toys like I always do. I heard her fussing so I started talking to her as I finished up the shower. When I got out, she was in the doorway to the bathroom.
When we were at Lynette’s house on Friday I put Katherine on the floor by the coffee table. She heard their dog, Picadilly in her crate. In no time at all she had crawled around the couch and was nose to nose with a very hyper and excited dog.
Today I put her on the carpet in her room, put a few toys down there, put up the baby gate to keep out Hooligan and went to the car to grab the toys I bought at a consignment store yesterday. When I came back to her room about 90 seconds later, she was in the doorway, looking at Hooligan through the baby gate.
This is a whole new phase but she is so much fun. Today she played on the bed while I was sitting there working on the computer and watching TV. We had so much fun just looking at each other, saying babababa and climbing all over mommy. Obviously I did not get much done on the computer.
