Elaina crawls

Let the fun begin, boys and girls, because Elaina figured it out today. She has been getting gradually closer over the past few weeks. She first figured out how to get from her stomach to a sitting up position. Then, she would do this lean forward from a sitting up position until she got almost all the way to her stomach and realized she couldn't get her legs to move. She got around this way pretty good for a while by leaning from a sitting up position and scooting her legs underneath her (kind of hard to explain). Well, today, after she got up from her nap, she leaned forward and her knees moved with her. One knee in front of the other, one hand in front of the other and she was off. And in a hurry too - she wasted no time getting used to it :) take a look - this was taken during the first 30 minutes of her crawling....

Now we need to baby proof - not so smart putting that off :)
