Yesterday I was eating my breakfast on the couch and Rachel was playing on the floor. She was rolling around and having a great time when all of a sudden I noticed she was sitting up. I second guessed myself because I was SURE she had been rolling around...but then she was sitting up? Yuppers - she has figured that out. It amazes me how one day she doesn't do something and then the next she's doing it like she's always done it :)
She is soooo close to crawling. She's got the position for it figured out but then she just decides to roll around instead. I'm ok with this...really, I am!
Any chance she gets, she's grabbing your hands and she wants to walk. She will stand on her own but only for a second or two - then she realizes what's going on and she falls down.
The other big thing - she's figured out how to open the doors on our entertainment centre. She's opened them before but I don't think she really knew what she was doing then. However, now she's a pro and by the time you get over there, she has the cabinet half emptied! Same goes with our coffee table - she LOVES the baskets. She pulls out the middle basket on the lower level and just throwing her bibs & washcloths everywhere.
I'm sure people wonder what I do all day - I chase after my kid who can't crawl or walk yet but man oh man, when she gets near something she shouldn't be near, LOOK OUT!!!! I swear all I do is clean up after her!! :)

Oooh, it's any day now that you will be even busier, Julie! Maybe Rachel will start walking before she's even crawled!! You never know, I've heard that it's happened!
Calder does the same thing (throwing things all over the place) with his basket of toys - it's like a tornado hit as he searches through the basket (in search of what, I don't know, because then he is off and crawling somewhere else). Well what did ya make that mess for? lol
At least we're burning some extra calories - walking with Rachel and cleaning up after her - but soon, just watch - gone are the days of eating cereal leisurely on the couch. :)
