And it begins

Look out world, here comes Scarlett. As predicted, Scarlett started crawling on Christmas. Her Christmas present to Joe and I was a little disappearing trick which resulted in her hiding behind the coffee table instead of in front of it where she was so routinely placed. Here is a video of her mastered art - crawling. When she is not crawling in the video she is performing her other mastered art - shrieking at the top of her lungs.

Go Scarlett Go!

Scarlett is trying so hard to crawl! All the motions are there...except the forward motion. And yes, Joe and I have tried to show her how it is done. We have family crawl-around-on-the-floor parties. They're all the rage. It won't be too long before we have to baby proof everything we own - now that I think about it...that kind of sounds like a pain in the diapered bum. Maybe we'll go back to working on sitting.

Crawling by Christmas??

Okay...I'm taking bets. Who thinks this kid'll be crawling in the next few weeks. She moves constantly and only takes brief breaks to chew a toy or look at her feet. Could it have anything to do with the fact that she plays on a He-Man comforter? Is it possible that she is summoning the power of Grayskull for the power of mobility? I think so.

We discovered that Scarlett is a penny pincher...just like Dad! (I'm gonna be in trouble.)
