We are MOW-BILE

Please explain to me how my child can go from face-planting one moment to scurrying across the floor the next? In keeping with her usual way, I blogged about Grace not crawling and the next day she started. Up on all fours, one knee and hand in front of the other. Amazing. Last Wednesday night she moved her knees and hands "twice" before falling, but I decided it didn't count. So the next night she proved me wrong and did it four times. By Friday night she was really moving and tonight I had to scoop her up three times because she almost knocked over the speakers, grabbed the fireplace poker, and hit her head on our metal legged table. Oh heavens! Not the best quality pics, but here she is in action!
(official crawling date: July 16th. Living room with daddy, mommy, pappy, and uncle kyle.)



Yes, that's a gallon of blue bell at the top of the picture. Don't judge, it was a rough week.


This one has nothing to do with crawling, but I had to post it! She is so funny. And I must (carefully) say that she looks just like her daddy in this picture. Her face, that is.
