Violet started crawling today! One day before her 8 month birthday. My mom was playing with her in the living room and suddenly started yelling to us that Violet was crawling. Sure enough, it looks like she's figured out how the arms work in this crawling thing. Before, she would get her butt up in the air and then use her forehead as leverage to move forward. Very entertaining but not very graceful. I'd say her crawl now is "the army crawl," where she's using her forearms (instead of her forehead) along with her legs. Note how she kicks up her legs as she moves forward.... adorable!
It's a whole new world.... for all of us. We just did the "crawl through" of the house - where you get down low and see all of the dangerous things that a baby can get in to. Our goal is to move anything exceptionally dangerous (cleaning supplies, anything small that could be a choking hazard) up high and anything not so dangerous down low.
