Our crawler
For the last week or so, she has been crawling.
She's got a funny kind of style. Not a "put one knee in front of the other" approach. Maybe she'll refine her technique into that. But for now, she kneels on all fours and then puts one foot out in front. Then drags herself forward to alignment. It gives her a long range around the house. We've had to babyproof everything, for example.
The foot she puts in front is an attempt to stand on it. And she's getting good at getting herself up into standing positions. She'll crawl over to a table or chair and grab something, pull herself up, and stand there.
She even lowered herself down again to sitting today. Breakthrough.
She is sleeping inconsistently, I'd say. On many nights, she wakes up sometime in the middle of the night for a feeding. But we are so used to it that we haven't tried to suppress that behavior. She's more or less quiet all night so it's fine with us. Bedtime around 830pm and wake up around 7.
Meena has been taking her to the park and playgroups and classes. We are told Pascale is very friendly and enjoys playing. Good! Though I haven't really seen her with multiple kids her own age yet.
