Beginners Crawl

I thought for the longest time that Audrey was going to skip crawling all together and head straight into walking, since she always preferred to be upright.  She was a horrible "tummy time" girl and would scream whine whenever she was face down.  She has moved beyond this phase and is now a perfect tummy time candidate.  She can raise her arms so her entire tummy is off the ground and has just discovered how to get her butt and knees up.  Her next hurdle is figuring out how to put it all together and crawl instead of lunge or be a 1st cadet in the army.  It's so cute to see her become more mobile and reach for things that interest her.  Besides "crawling" she has also mastered the technique we like to call "the helicopter."  See for yourself!
