On the Move

Diana is on the move! She isn't crawling so to speak but she is being creative on getting to where she wants to go. She has been what I call "back scooting" (where she arches on her back and scoots on her head and feet) for awhile now and most recently been scooting around on her bottom. Today she bottom scooted from the middle of the living room to the corner of the room to reach a chair to play with while I was changing out the laundry ( I was wondering why she was being so quiet). She has been doing much better on her belly lately and will occasionally flop to her belly on her own to get something she wants. My mom even said it won't be long until she is crawling. Well, today she "crawled" but it was backwards. She was playing on her belly and before I knew it she was back 5 feet . Later tonight we were playing in the living room and she apparently wanted to play with Jonathan's fire station as she bent down to her hands and flopped to her belly and "army crawled" about 2 feet, forward this time, to where she could reach and pull the fire station to her. Jonathan said "oh oh!" I have been warning him that we are going to be in trouble when she starts crawling, as she will be into everything, including his toys. I am excited for her to reach this milestone, just not sure I am ready for a mobile baby yet.
