That's right...Meera is now mobile! She took her first tentative crawl on the 15th. A few days before that I could see her trying to move herself...she'd get on her hands and knees and rock back and forth. But she couldn't quite figure out how to propel forward. Prior to that she was dragging herself with her arms ( I call it the combat crawl...like a soldier out on the field). My extensive reading (of countless mommy blogs) told me that she would start crawling soon but I never expected her to start so soon.....thought it would take weeks or months before she actually crawled. Well she figured it out within days and life has not been the same since.
Now, I am constantly having to pull her away from stuff and I can no longer leave her to sit by herself (she mastered sitting up on her own on the 7th). Luckily hubby has already fixed the security gate so I don't have to worry she might fall down the stairs...although there are other things to worry about!
