Trying to crawl up stair steps
Standing to look for interesting things
Asleep in bouncy seat
Just in the last couple of days, Margaret has been spending much of her time learning to pull up and starting to cruise. She is a fanatic for it, such that she's been having trouble falling asleep! Even when I can see she is so fatigued (even crying with exhaustion), it is time for nap, I can't get her to lay still and nurse (or just lie down in her crib) because she wants to stand and cruise. So yesterday I'd already tried twice to get her down for nap and gave up, setting her in her bouncy seat while I did kitchen chores. With nary a peep, she fell asleep right there and that's where I left her for her nap!
Maybe she just wanted to be able to sleep standing up!
She is way ahead of Malcolm who has just mastered sitting up and can sometimes do an army pull without smashing his face into the hardwood.
ReplyDeleteJessica: I think Margaret heard that her two siblings walked at 10 months old and she's decided she's going to try for the same!
ReplyDeleteMargaret is so beautiful. Her ambitions are admirable (sorry they are also trying for you!).
