She's Crawling!! (and Standing too)

Ava has been on the verge for about two weeks now and this evening she finally crawled!!! I have been waiting for her to really move across the floor before I could officially say she was crawling. She would make it two steps (with her hands) and then her right leg would get in the way so tonight I held her leg down and helped her a few times and she figured it out in no time. Now I can say she is an official crawler! I am so excited for her and all she is about to discover but this means I am going to have to keep a very close eye on her. Yikes!





Leakhena has been teaching Ava how to pull herself up into standing position and so naturally she has started practicing her new skills in her crib. It's pretty cute to go in her room after a nap and see her standing with a big grin on her face. Love my girl!
