For those of you who are wondering whether Rachel is moving independently yet, the answer is a qualified "yes." That is, when she wants to reach for a toy on the playmat, she'll sort of heave her stomach forward and move just far enough to grab it. Last night she was banging her feet against the carpet as if she really wanted to scoot. She didn't seem mad that she couldn't do it, though; she was smiling and seemed relaxed about the whole thing.
It's hard to believe that the day care folks are saying that Rachel should be moved to the "mobiles" room, which, as I understand it, is for kids who are almost walking. Apparently she manages to move around a lot when we're not around.
Drew, who is with her more than I am on weekends, swears he has seen her crawl...but backwards.
"It's like she only has one gear, and it's reverse," he said thoughtfully. "I'm worried that when she starts walking, it'll be backward."
