Yesterday was a big day for our big girl! She started pulling up, standing, and crawling on her knees! She is doing great! And it's so cute, because she thinks she can just pull up against a wall now! She will figure it out now. Compared to Zane, she definitely seems like she's going to be a climber, which Zane wasn't. She already climbs over the rungs on the bottoms of our chairs. It's so funny to watch. Instead of going around the chair, she just goes right through underneath! She has also started waving with her whole arm! That is precious too! I don't think I've gotten that on video, but I did get her first standing on video. Jeff wanted me to come back to Zane's room and play with them and I decided that I would instead of getting supper ready, which ended up being late, but when I did, there she was standing! And I would have missed it if I had been a Martha and tended to my business! I am so proud of my sweet little girl. She turns 10 months old today. Neither of us can believe that she's almost one. Talk about time flying. We want her to stay little forever, but we are happy that she's getting big too. Look for 10 month old pictures later!
She loves to take things out of my purse. I have had to start zipping it shut.
Those eyes.
Found herself a little cave. She also likes crawling under my desk.
First time standing!!!!! Yay, Rachel!!!!
Our neighbor lady had some ladies over playing cards and these two, Rachel included, would wave to them as they left. It was fun!
I did get a video of Rachel waving! And this is Rachel standing up!
Rachel stands up again!
Rachel crawls on her knees on the hard floor, but on carpet she's still an inchworm!
Here she's scooting...
And here she's crawling on her knees! And just so you know, I was telling her 'no' because I didn't want her to get the plastic bag that held toilet paper. And she listened!
Here is the other day when she crawled under the chair.
This is another one that is labeled crawling under a chair, but it's not. And it's earlier in the week before she was crawling on her knees!
And more big news! She has a tooth that has come through! I can actually feel it!!!
Blogging is certainly getting away from me! Rachel turned 8 months old last Sunday! She
also started scooting around! She can reach things out of her reach now! It is so much fun to see her crawling. She is healthy and happy! She's also started screaming big time when I leave the room. This girl does not like to be left alone. She is a definite people person. Zane still loves her so much and she still adores him.
These pictures and videos were taken in Midland!
Happy that Rachel could go to Bible class with Gwen!
When Zane first started crawling, he was pretty timid, but not anymore! I had to scrub the floors so I would feel okay about him crawling all over them! He is going everywhere! Love him!
And just because he's so sweet...I'll leave you with this picture.
I don't know where to start today!!! There are so many firsts! Zane has his first tooth!!! It's on the bottom and I could feel it with my finger! Also, he has started pulling up! He did it a couple days ago and then again today. And lastly, he is crawling...forward!!!! I am just so proud I almost cried!!! He did a couple "steps" yesterday or the day before, but this afternoon, he just started crawling forward for a long ways! I am just thrilled! I have some pictures and video to share!
Already getting into stuff!
Pulling up!
Mmmm, a cereal box!
I thought it was so cute.
I don't know why he is frowning. He did great! I thought it was so cute how his arms were around all that stuff!
