Well, Folksies, she is crawling. Yes, CRAWLING. How old is she, you ask? Six months old, I answer. Wow, isn't that a little early to be crawling? YES, I respond -- I thought this wasn't supposed to happen for, like, TEN MORE YEARS!!!Alas, it has begun.
Apparently, Sophie woke up yesterday and thought to herself, "Self, today I think shall crawl." At about 11:45am, just before we left for her 6 month checkup with the doctor, I glanced over and Sophie was in the plank position. Very surprising, as I'd never seen her do anything like that before. Then, around 3pm I look up and there she is, on our fours inching slowly forward. Luckily, at this point, most of the time her crawling takes her backward. But I have this little itty feeling that by dinnertime tonight she'll be having crawling races with her dad. And probably tomorrow morning she'll hop the crib fence herself and walk to the kitchen. And by Sunday morning she'll look at me and say, "Well, good morning, Mother. What a delightful weekend we're having! Would you prefer omlettes or french toast for breakfast?"
Ok, so I'm being a little dramatic. But just a little. My baby is CRAWLING!

You go Sophie.
Grace decided to crawl WAY too early as well. It was a terrible development, but she sure enjoyed it.
So remember that, Lisa. At least Sophie is having fun exploring the world.
Ok, you're scaring the heck out of me! The thought of Matthew crawling in just 3 months is WAY too scary! Luckily he hates being on his tummy for more than 10 seconds, so I think it'll be more like 5-6 more months! (hey, I can be a wishful thinker, right?!)
Sophie and I can now go to my pilates class together! I just put the last crawling picture on as my desktop background. Love it!
