Lucy crawls!

Well, it's more accurately described as an army/inch-worm belly scoot/wiggle, but she can get from one place to another pretty well while doing it. She's been working toward this for a while, going from scooting backward to doing a swan dive face first in the carpet while tucking her knees and sticking her butt in the air. She can get up on all fours in a typical crawling position but doesn't quite know how to push off from her feet to propel herself forward. The one thing she has down is that she's GREAT at pulling with her arms. She's going to have some major arm muscles pretty soon :) Anyway, it's a huge milestone that I hope will make her happier as she's been a little cranky for the past couple of days.

Here are some pictures of Lucy "exploring" the area under her bouncer: :

Getting ready to go

This thing looks different from down here

mmm, tastes good

But this cracker is even better

(the ADORABLE green jumper was handmade by Kim's mom - I wish a had a picture of the front...I'll have to take some more when the weather is nice. I think this will be a favorite outfit this summer!)

Here are some from outside later that day:



And Maryn has been camera-shy lately (she won't even let me bribe her for pictures anymore!) but here are a couple of her in art-mode.

You can see she's still not too happy about me taking her picture
