We have a crawler.

A baby crawler. Well, the beginnings of one. A baby crawler that blows raspberries and has saliva slobbering all down her chin. It took her a while to realize that in order to move forward she has to use her legs. Before she understood this, she'd just keep moving forward with her arms and then land on her belly. But today, while my mother was visiting we noticed she tried to shimmy her legs a little bit. So we took off those cumbersome pants and let her get enough friction to make some progress. Perhaps this was why she took a 2 hour nap this morning - preparation for the milestone ahead. Perhaps this is why she's been waking up to 8 times after we lay her down for bed at night... lets hope this leads to better sleep habits.
