Abby's Scoot

I love to watch the different ways babies develop into their preferred mode of transit.  Nathan hated being on his stomach as a baby, so he never could get into crawling position.  He was a butt-scooter, but bounced really high like Tigger.  He made people laugh everywhere he went.  He ended up bouncing onto his hands and knees, and learned how to crawl a little bit that way, before learning to walk at 10 1/2 months.  Sarah was a lightning fast crawler.  She loved to explore.  She started walking at 10 months.  Matthew began pulling up to furniture and walls at 7 months.  He walked/ran along the walls, and crawled when there wasn't anything to hold on to.  He started walking/ running on his own at 9 1/2 months and hasn't slowed down since.
Abby started scooting a few months ago.  On carpet, she now crawls, but on wood and tile floors she does this super speedy scoot/slide.  Check her out.  She makes me smile all the time.

What's great about her scoot, is she can hold something in one hand while she's going.

Wow. She makes me giggle! I love her sound effects too! She's growing too fast. Still not too late...
