Psychotomy

So, last week Pi was doing a bit of pushing with her legs and she can turn herself around pretty well for a few weeks now. and rolling over.

Over the weekend we were at my parents, and I caught her pushing herself forward a couple times! It was so neat! (I know, I have a two year old, I’ve done this, it shouldn’t be cool? but it IS! because she’s moving!!!)

Then yesterday while dinner was cooking, she was laying on the floor and DK and I were in the armchair playing ToonTown. I got up to go finish up with dinner, and I’m talking to DK and looking through the breakfast window at the living room to keep an eye on Pi (not that Kiir wasn’t out there too, but) and I notice that she seems to be in a different place.

So I jokingly say to DK, “Is your sister crawling? Why is she crawling around? Is she looking for something? Go give her a hug so she knows you still love her!” (and he’s looking at me like I’m an idiot)

Then I realized something. She hadn’t just turned around or rolled over. She had physically moved … wait uh … So I looked out again, in time to see her propel herself three more “moves” … “Uh, seriously, DK, why is your sister crawling? She’s only just past four months!!!”

It’s still amazing and incredible and neat. But it’s also terrifying and worrisome. Because now we have to start watching for her getting in things from crawling. Eeek!!!
