Did Daddy's birthday present come early?

Wednesday, November 7th, approximately 7AM...so what's the deal, kid...can you crawl yet?

Cue dramatic music...



I'm calling that a successful crawl! You go, Lily!!!! Since those first tentative, um, steps, she's progressed at an almost alarming pace. This morning she crawled pretty much the entire width of mama and dada's bedroom. The secret, we have discovered, is to have the right "bait". Most any semi-taboo item will do, but telephones and remote controls are particularly effective.

I guess when you get right down to it, we have taught our baby to "fetch". She does not bring the item back to you, however.

A very cute side bonus: if you manage to slip the bait item away from her without her noticing, she will get quite puzzled and sort of rotate in place looking for it.
