She's Crawling!!

So I posted our video of Avery crawling for the first time and accidently hit "post" before writing anything, so you can see her in the post before this one. For the past month or so, Avery has made her way onto her hands and knees and then started rocking back and forth- a sure sign that crawling was on the way. The past week or so she started crawling backwards- so funny to see and apparently very common. Guy and I were a bit worried that our daughter would never move forward :-) but just last Sunday she took her first crawl. I was out at church with some Young Life girls and Guy was home with avery because he'd had to go to work super early that day. Avery got in her crawling position and Guy grabbed the video just in case. he was encouraging her and wouldn't you know, she moved forward! I got home and he casually says "hey- look at this video I got". I had a total mommy moment as I freaked out laughing realizing she had just crawled and then immediately freaked out sadly because I missed it. Hormones, anyone?? Thankfully Guy's used to the rollercoaster that is motherhood. That entire day Avery crawled more and more- so cool and yet, oh no, she's mobile!! Now we're constantly checking the floor for tidbits she might put in her mouth and we're on to babyproofing what we can. next step- standing and walking!
