We've Got a Crawler

Yup, you read that right! Morgan is crawling! She crawled for the first time on Sunday October 14. We had just literally walked through the door from a weekend at Branson with my grandparents. I sat her down and was about to start helping Cory unpack the car and she just started crawling. She had been acting like she was going to for weeks, up on all fours, rocking back and forth, even putting one knee forward. But Sunday, she finally did it. I had to grab the video camera and record it I was so excited. Now she is EVERY where! It's funny to watch her though because she will make a couple moves and then put her tooshy in the air, or sit back down like she's not sure about it. She also does this sliding, pushing forward thing. She is getting better and better at just crawling and will be a pro in not time. She also has another new trick. She's not pulling herself up like on the side of the couch, but she's will lean over something (like her piano) and then stand up, while still leaning over. I think she will be pulling herself up very soon. This girl is getting too big too fast!

She's back to jabbering and squealing all the time again. She had done this about a month ago and stopped. Really wasn't very vocal in the past weeks, (I was actually getting kind of worried) but she found her voice again and this time is squealing loud!

She has also started throwing fits here and there. Today she threw one when we took Abby's bone away from her. Then we had to hide it because every time she would see the bone she would start squealing and crying. She loves to take Abby's bones away from her and chew on them. We have to watch her very closely.

She is eating like a champ now. No more sucking the baby food off the spoon. She is actually opening her mouth and eating it. Mealtime is so much cleaner now.

So loving this baby girl more and more every day. Looking forward to experiencing the upcoming holiday seasons with her!
