She's been wanting to and nearly able to for ages and at last Freya is crawling!!
From about 5 months she was up on all fours rocking back and forth and she's been succesfully crawling backwards for about a month now....she just couldn't work out how to go forwards! She'd get really cross and I was forever finding her under tables and chairs where she'd reversed in and gotten her bottom stuck!
BUT today she saw a toy she reeeaaally wanted and managed the two little paces it took to get to it. So, of course, since then, I've been setting her challenges, lol, putting things further and further away from her to make her come and get them and she's been doing it! Gets a bit cross, mind,a s it's very new and hard, lol. It's so cute - like those nappy adverts with an unsteady crawler on them! She has bright red knees from being on them all day though.
Noah caterpillar crawled for a few weeks before he crawled but Freya missed that stage out comletely. They really have been sooo different in the way and when they do things.
In other news, she's practically there with the sitting at long last. She's about 90% stable (still occasionally topples when she reaches for something too far away and flings herself backwards when she gets too excited!!) although still prefers to be on the floor and on the move!
She's also getting her first tooth. There's a very obvious bump below the surface of her bottom right-hand A.
So much going on with her right now....she's growing up far too fast!
