More milestones...

Last night I continued to be entertained by my Miss Elizabeth! She's going to figure this crawling thing out if it's the last thing she does! Once she gets in the crawling position, she does this little "hop" thing with her butt and she moves. Wow! She's figured out a new thing! But, I think it takes up too much of her energy because she does this little hop thing once and then goes back to laying on the floor! However, along with the hop, I also noticed/witnessed Elizabeth actually take a "step" while trying to crawl...she made all the right movements with her hands/knees, but, once again, did it for a very short distance before going back to just laying on the floor & playing with her feet! She also has figured out how to go from the crawling position to the sitting position. I couldnt believe it. Well, I could, because my daughter is super intelligent, but...I was suprised it happen when it did! She still isnt too gracefull in going from sitting to crawling, or from sitting to laying down. Its usually more of a ker-plunk...and she hits the ground! I tell yah though, she's got a strong noggin b/c she has had her fair shares of hits to the head and has hardly ever cried. (Whether her head hits the floor, or lands on a toy, or she forgets that she is on hardwood now instead of carpet! Whatever it may be, she finds a way to clonk her head on something!) She has some very strong legs, and I am pretty sure she will be holding herself up against furniture soon as well. It really is amazing to witness her make all of these new accomplishments & milestones!
