Emily is crawling

After 3 months of "army crawling", Emily has finally started to crawl on hands and knees. She started a few days ago and is slowly doing more of it each day.

Oh, and she is suddenly into everything. I used to be able to assume that she'd be generally where I left her, and playing with what I expected. Now she is increasingly reaching more, moving faster, and trying to eat every speck of fuzz and dirt that she can find.

She's definitely "her own little person", and a sweet one! She's still getting me up at least once a night to nurse, but I love her anyway and know they all outgrow it someday. Sometimes she needs her "Mommy time" - after getting up from her afternoon nap, she'll often want to be held (or carried in the baby carrier) for half an hour or so, and then she's happy to be down and doing her usual things.
