Crawling

Well here we are just days before Kylie turns 8 months and she is so very close to crawling. She has figured out how to push herself around backwards on her tummy. She points her feet in the direction she wants to go and pushes w/ her arms until she is where she wanted to go. She figured this out about a week ago and w/in the last few days has been working on the hands and knees thing. She will push up from belly down on the floor to knees but promptly falls back onto her tummy. I know the days of limited movement is short. We will soon have two that can go virtually anywhere they want to and that makes me sad and nervous. My "baby" is growing so very fast.

7 Months Already?

I can't believe how quickly the time has passed! It seems like just yesterday that I was in the hospital trying to get my head around the fact that I was the mommy of two girls. Kylie has been sitting on her own for quite some time and is getting closer to crawling (big sister didn't achieve crawling until she was 9 months) every day. She rocks up on her legs when she is sitting to reach something that's a little too far away. Any day she'll actually get up on her knees and then it will only be a matter of time. She loves to sing and scream and talk. However, she still isn't interested in eating solids!? I don't get it, but every baby is different and I know that at some point she will take to it.
