Newfound Mobility


Airlie started crawling on May 24th.  A few days later she started pulling to a stand.  She is really on the move now and so proud of herself.  We have re-discovered all the hazards that go along with a mobile baby. For instance...all the tiny Barbie pieces that could go directly down a wind pipe.  Oh...and all of my pretty nightlights around the house and febreeze plug-ins have just become way too interesting for the little peep so they all have to go.  And just yesterday Ella went downstairs to the basement to tell Matt we were back from the pool.  I put the baby down and went to start dinner.  I had instructed Ella to go upstairs and put some dry clothes on.  The next thing I know I hear Airlie's voice...with a strange echo to it.  Matt heard it too and the same horrifying thought struck us at the same time, "THE BASEMENT DOOR IS OPEN!"

We reached her at the same time and exhaled with great gusto when she was removed from what would have been a trip to the emergency room...or worse.

But...when all dangers (including flashing rings/see video) are supervised or removed from the mine field which is now our house...she is a cute crawler and so proud of herself...as are we!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NCyjDmOS_I
