Here she is in her bed, getting a tickle by me of course 🙂
She’s been doing the whole up on 4’s thing, rocking back and forth for the last week. Which means, crawling will be coming soon. She may go backwards at first too, which will stall the process a little longer. I know my son was 5 1/2 mos old when he started crawling. He was up on all fours, and actually started going forward. We were in trouble ever since. He started walking at 9mos. I thought that was young, but realized not that young because his younger sister started walking at 8 months. Boy we had our hands full!
Back to baby. She’s quite moblie. She kind of does this “swim” like movement where she puts one arm out in front of the other then digs her little toes into the carpet to push herself forward. She’ll do this for her most favorite things such as paper, babywipes and small toys she’s not allowed to play with.hehe.

Your kiddos definitely walked early, both of them, even 9 months is very young. I worked with babies for quite a while, and I definitely don’t remember any walking that early. I don’t think Lila is going to be one of those either. She’s taking her sweet time with it all, which is OK by me considering our living situation includes about a zillion stairs.
Anyway, the kid is gorgeous as always…still not believing anyone ever thought she was a boy…she looks absolutely feminine to me.

That is early…they’re just so advanced!!
She is a beauty… I love her pierced ears too!

She is so beautiful! Watching her grow reminds me of where mine should be… Alivya rolls, but she hasn’t learned that it can get her places yet… so she usually rolls onto her belly, lifts all her limbs and cries. I joke that she is like a beached baby whale… but its so cute! Still waiting for Taylor…

Wow, look at her! And she is just so gorgeous. Not cute, not adorable, not pretty….gorgeous! (Okay, she is cute and adorable and pretty but are you understanding just how ‘pretty’ I think she is?)
And man, I thought Silly Girl walked early at 11 months. Goodness! 8 and 9 month walkers? Wow.

Wow, your little one quite mobile. My little guy (about 3 weeks younger) rolls over from back to belly and vice versa but rarely does a complete roll. He’s also struggling to pull his legs up when on his belly. He hates being on his belly so I’m half thinking he’ll start walking before crawling! 🙂
Glad to see she’s healthy and happy, just like my little man.
Later!
