Let the crawling begin!

Well it happened, she has finally learned to crawl.  I wouldn't quite say she is every where yet, but she sure can get around.  Her favorite things to crawl for are: cell phones, cords to the lamps, picture frames on the floor (lots of those since nothing has gotten hung up yet!), and her diaper basket (you would NOT believe how fast she can empty it!). I have had to baby proof one room so far (living room).  It is amazing how different this parenting game is now that she can move, she immediately goes for things she is not supposed to have!  Why can't she just crawl towards toys!  And when I say baby proof I just mean put everything up on the couch.....I still need to do outlet covers and all that stuff, don't judge me.  

Here is a video of her making her way towards some candles, this was taken yesterday (6/20), and already today she is better at it!  My sister-in-law, Audrey, put it perfectly, "She looks like she is crawling on a slip and slide!"


Josie has no idea what she is in for, there have been a couple times where Brie has surprised her from behind. And in this picture below Josie is wolfing down her food because Brie started crawling towards it. 


I am including a few other pictures here, she is just growing up so fast.  I KNOW everyone always says that about their babies/kids, but wow.  I truly can't believe it, she has such a personality and opinion!  

Oddly she has not been loving bath time very much, she has been crying and screaming when I have to pour water over her and wash her up.  



Classic "why did you set me down?!" cry.  I get this face a lot.....lots of protesting.  She is heavy though and I can't carry her all the time!


She isn't pulling herself up yet, I set her up here.  She was able to hold this position for a LONG time though before falling back on her butt.  She thought she was soooo cool doing this!

She loves pulling things out of the toy bin, or any bin for that matter!



She has been doing more and more copying, which is so fun!  She sticks her tongue out when you do, and she is catching on to if you say "where is your slicker?!"  she will stick out her tongue.  Such a ham!


We go and walk down to the mailbox at the end of our road, it is completely downhill walking to the box and walking back I can hardly make it without taking a break!  It is a huge hill!  Although that isn't saying much because I am in terrible shape.....haha.
