I'm Crawling!!

The big news of today...I crawled across the floor twice with my belly in the air the whole time!! This was very exciting for Mom and Dad and very exhausting for me. They just kept cheering and smiling:)

Here are a few pictures from the past few weeks. There are some with me and my Grandma Sally. Some with me, Mom, Aunt Tracy, Grandma Sally, and my cousins Cody and Tristan. Then a few from Halloween.

Just the usual

So, I have found that Mom is still not very good at frequent updates:) She tries.
Life around here has been pretty typical. I play on the floor and lately I babble a lot (ba ba ba, da da da). I also enjoy making high pitched squealing sounds and I love it when Mom and Dad join in and we have squealing conversations! I am trying so hard to figure out how to get across the room on my own, especially when a cat comes to visit the room I am in. I haven't figured it out yet - which usually means I fuss in frustration, but sometimes I can army man crawl (pulling along with my arms) when I get focused.
On Thursday night I went with Mom to see her friends and their baby girls. I had great fun with Kate (about a year old) and Greta Banks (6 weeks older than me). We played on the activity table and laughed at each other a lot. Greta Banks and I shared an open mouth "kiss" and that made all the girls laugh so much!! I was just trying to get a closer look at her:)
Here is a recent picture from dinner time.
