And she's off

Further proof that Maddy is growing up very very fast, she is up on all fours now. She rocks back and forth and then slides back onto the ground but she is getting so close to moving it is kinda scary. Not that I don't want our little baby to become more self sufficient and self propelled; it is just that now we are going to have to watch every move she makes. Before we could have a glass of water sitting on the floor a couple of feet from where Maddy was playing, now WATCH OUT, or that water will be on the floor!

She really is a cutie as she scoots across the floor getting so close to crawling. Maybe by Christmas? (Oh, crap, the Christmas tree!)



We call this one downward facing Madeline.

i actually know someone who attached their christmas tree to a pulley system so that when the kids knocked it over, they just cranked it back up! then there's the logic of having a table-top tree or a tree that you put in a playpen...and then again, this could be your year without a tree, as i am suspecting it will be for me! good luck with this!

I had friends who's cat was a tree climber, so they wired it to the ceiling. Aside from the hook sticking out of the ceiling year round it wasn't a horrible idea. Just not very attractive!
