Crawlin Crawlin Crawlin

Yes, Emerson is officially crawling! Which means our lives have officially gotten even crazier and Zane's life has gotten harder too because now he doesn't have total control over all of his toys. He's used to giving Emerson toys and then playing with other toys that he wants and now she comes over whenever she wants to "play" with him and messes up his plan (and his neat and tidy piles). When Zane sees her coming from across the room, sometimes he yells to her, "No, Emerson! Don't crawl over here!!"

It's also funny because she tries to crawl up into Zane's lap and he either gets frustrated or thinks it's hilarious. She's already started to fray our big rug, try to eat small pieces of trash or fuzz, and close doors in front of her. Goodbye to our sitting-still little girl!

These first two videos are a couple days before she actually started crawling for real. She was still just taking a few steps and then sitting and still trying to talk herself into moving. But as I was getting ready in the bathroom, she did end up making it down the hall eventually.






Here's her really doing it...on the wood floors her legs just kind of scoot behind her. But now, especially on carpet, she's crawling normally.

Sooooo cool!!!! The world just shrunk a little for Emerson and became that much more challenging for Mom and Dad!

Enjoy these phases, they go by so fast, before you know it they are in their 2nd year of college! :-)
