Cruising

Submitted by Eliana on Sun, 09/21/2008 - 5:16pm

I'm becoming a lot more mobile very quickly. It's a whole new world now that I can get around. I've mastered crawling and have moved on to cruising. I enjoy standing up next to tables, chairs or my exersaucer and playing. I can even sit myself back down, but sometimes when I'm tired I don't feel up to braving it. I am a much happier baby now that I can get around and explore. I was starting to feel a little trapped for a while there. Now I wear myself out playing happily all day. Mostly my parents trap me in the living room with barricades (the playhouse, toy boxes, furniture and my exersaucer) and so far that keeps me in a safe area. If anyone ever moves one of the blocks, I notice right away and am out the opening to explore new territory. The other night I crawled under the end table and hid behind the couch. It was funny to hear everyone looking around saying, "Where did Eliana go?" I was happily playing with Belle's toys, which are much more fun than my toys. Well, I'm off to go chew on the coffee table. Maybe I'll have a third tooth by the next blog entry.
