Hannah started crawling forward today. (She’s been perfecting the backward side-shuffle for three weeks). Yeah, the day we returned from our 8 day vacation. Yep, the day we are all exhausted and stranded somewhere between West coast and Midwest time. Yep, the day Mommy had the camera out because I was reviewing vacation pictures. Yep, the day Mommy and Daddy exhaustedly planned a short movie to limp three tired kids along until bedtime.

Hannah started crawling forward today.

Her motivation: a pile of remote controls. =)

Once she realized the belly-flop wasn’t going to work,

that left leg started to get antsy. Then the hands started kneading in place. Then came the organization. And the first bold left knee/right arm coordination.

And after three slow-motion forward crawls, this happened:

VICTORY!!!

Bravo, baby girl!
