And She's Off!

At exactly 9 months, Amelia has started to crawl. She hasn't quite figured out a smooth rhythm yet and looks like a clumsy caterpillar as she drags herself around the floor. It's so cute to watch and her determination amazes me. First she puts her hands and arms in front of her, then lifts up her bottom and legs as if to do a push up, although doesn't stay in this position, after laying back down on her tummy, she pulls herself forward using her arms, often grunting as she moves along (she can already move pretty fast). I can hardly believe it, time to child-proof the house.

Amelia is also learning to make noise, she loves tapping her shapes together, perhaps she'll be a percussionist.

Of course, playtime with daddy is always fun, and try as she might, there's no hiding the giggles!

Amelia really looks like she is laughing her head off. Her facial expression is priceless.

You better be careful Heidi she is going to be one hot girl. The boys will be loving her!
