The end of an era...

I have to admit, I've really enjoyed my time with an immobile baby. For awhile I wondered if I was doing something wrong, since Dylann is still not crawling, but now I've realized she is just a super laid back lady and she'll either crawl when she's ready, or more so, she'll just go strait to walking.  So instead of worrying about it I decided to enjoy the fact that I could put her on her play mat and clean the kitchen without worrying about what she was getting into.  Well, so much for that.

The other day I had her in her 'play pen' in the bathroom while I took a shower.  And by playpen, I mean a blanket and some toys set up in the garden tub next to the shower. ;-)  She will play in there forever while I take a shower after boot camp...yep, love her!  Well, as I washed my hair I turned around to check on her and there she was, standing up in the tub playing with the bottle of bubble bath that was on the edge of it. WHOA, what the...?!

Hahaha, you are in for it now Mommy! 
She loves to be on her feet and can stand for 10-15 minutes at a time if we put her next to the coffee table or using our hands as props.  She also is walking forward really well now if we help her.  So I knew this 'pulling up' phase was right around the corner.  Today she pulled herself up onto the coffee table and started scream-giggling she was so happy with herself. :)  I'm very excited to see her progress and see how much fun she is having with it, but I can't help but miss those long showers in the morning... especially when I come home stinky and sweaty from boot camp and I have to wait almost 3 hours until she takes a nap to take a shower! Yuck!
Check out my skillz!
It's been a great ride while it lasted baby girl, now comes the fun stuff... and more gray hair. :-P

One more cute one for good measure! :)
