It’s been so humid today that it’s reminding me of a recent sighting weeks ago while strolling in downtown St. John’s.

I originally had a completely different post in mind for today. It’s not fully written and is in fact in a notebook of mine. But life happens in the form of mommy duties and family emergencies… so I’ll save the other topic for another day.
I’ve mentioned to a few friends and family and Missy Moo has started sleeping on her side and also her stomach. This child is definitely keeping me on my toes though because when she sleeps with her face almost completely down, I’m constantly checking to make sure she’s still breathing!!
I had a Mother of the Year moment last week. Ha ha, read on…
Missy Moo is this close to crawling. So very close, but she’s not quite there yet.
She manages to pull and drag herself and she can even change directions by moving herself in a circle while lying on her stomach. And she’s not just trying to do an army crawl, she’s also getting up on her knees and pushing herself up on her arms so that she can semi sit up and wiggle back and forth.
Like most babies, she’s a nosey little fart at times and wants to grab everything that’s not within her grasp. She’s even starting to go for cell phones when Matt or I have her in our arms and a phone is nearby.
So last week I decided to conduct an experiment that involved my daughter and an iPad. The results were hilarious.
She’s clearly her mother’s child. Not only does she love technology, but she also gets easily distracted too! But you would get distracted too if a colourful quilt was all up in your business while you were struggling to drag yourself towards something shiny.
I suspect that she’ll be crawling very soon and then we’ll be in trouble! Luckily we already have the baby gate installed because our friends were visiting last week with their 13 month old. And also thanks to their little guy, our kitchen is on the way to being fairly baby proof (although we have a few things left to do, but that’ll come in time).
