Backwards

Cordy's crawling!

Backwards. Always backwards.

When Cody was learning, I put my cell phone on the floor in front of him, and he would tenaciously sea-lion himself toward it. Knowing my daughter as I do, I put Cheerios on the floor. Her eyes lit up with determined focus, and she went for it -- and then wailed two minutes later, finding herself across the room, ever farther from her quarry.

She's also having fun practicing different mouth shapes (and she is getting used to the feel of her first little tooth, which came in a couple weeks ago!). As usual, all her test-faces end up in a big smile. : )
