On The Move

Just after Anabelle turned 9 months old, she started scooting on her belly, which quickly led to full out hands and knees crawling. It's been so much fun (and work) to watch as she progresses. She's learned how much there is to explore in the new house. Fortunately, she hasn't found the stairs yet!

And, she's off!

Our ottoman has made for a great barrier between her and all of the fun electronics on our TV. It was a grand idea to think she'd hear "no" and stay away, but even with an ottoman and pillows surrounding it, she still manages to find her way to the Wii every now and then.

The glass shelves, dividing our family and living room, that once held family photos and candles now hold hard books and baby toys. But Anabelle loves pulling herself onto the lowest shelf and watching me work in the kitchen.
And the bathroom is a world of wonders! All of her bath toys are strewn about, and when she gets bored with them, she discovers mommy & daddy's fun bathroom toys.

I think the caption for this picture is "Busted!"
