The Cutie Crawls!!!

We are now in a high speed pursuit of the little cutie as she crawls after her toys and other objects of desire!!!

I had to rub my eyes and look closely to see whether she was really crawling or not! After work on Monday Evelyn was playing on the floor of her room. As she has frequently done, she got up on her hands and knees and rocked back and forth, one movement forward... and one movement back (like she was steadying herself). This time, instead of flopping down on her belly to army crawl, she moved one more crawl then another and another crawl forward!!!

Okay - so I knew better than to squeel and cheer and scare her like I did the first time she rolled over. I was overjoyed to see her progress!!!

There are so many other new developments that seemed to have blossomed from her crawling. She babbles and chatters away, has become incredibly affectionate towards both Ian and I, tries to stand up or pull herself up to anything... she has tried more and more new foods and loves cheerios (they are fun to grab and place in her mouth) and she will play peek-a-boo when she hears us say "where's Evelyn"!

I'll have to follow up with a list of all the new milestones and achievments!
