Pulling Up and Pulling Stuff Out

Gracie is demonstrating this new skill while pulling lots of things out of her changing table drawer.


Holding on with just one hand!

Peek-a-Boo, We See You

Now that she can crawl - she's very independent! Here she is closing her bedroom door.


"Yes, what is it? I'm busy playing in here!"

Fall

Bouncy Ball

Mommy's Helper?

I was making dinner and cleaning up the kitchen ... then I heard little hands patting on something ... when I turned around, what did I see?  

Gracie had crawled over, pulled herself up on her own, was leaning forward holding herself up & patting on the dishwasher door.

Here she is exploring and discovering ...

She figured out how to climb into the dishwasher all by herself.  She started by lifting one leg up, sat and then pulled up her other leg up and was then sitting in the middle of the door ... totally by herself!  She was very busy and concentrated on pulling all of her spoons out of the basket.  She is an independent, smart, and determined girl!

 

And here's the video:

She is very good at standing up now but is not interested in holding my fingers and walking - which is fine with me!  I hope she stays a baby a little while longer. 

Fall Crawl

Gracie has been crawling for just over 2 weeks....and is officially an expert.  She loved crawling in our backyard and playing with (and sometimes eating) the leaves.  

Big Girl Car Seat

A few weeks ago we bought Gracie a new car seat.  She's now riding in-style in her Britax Boulevard Click & Safe!

She LOVES her new car seat and going bye-bye!
