She's on the move

For over a week now, we've watched Grace pull herself up onto her hands and knees, then rock back and forth or even make a crawl-like movement or two, and we knew that any day, she would finally just get up and really crawl, and last night SHE DID!

Just look at her go!!

Another of Grace's latest accomplishments is eating table food. It's mostly toddler puffs and pieces of bread that we've given her so far, but she LOVES them and does SO well eating them. This is especially rewarding for us because, after seeing her gag on anything even slightly solid a couple of weeks ago, we had been worrying (irrationally, I know) that she would never eat solid food and we'd be feeding her pureed bananas for her first birthday (and the rest of her life). But after seeing her eat some pieces of sweet bread last night and being all over that, I have a feeling that she's going to like birthday cake just fine.

We are so excited about our Grace's new abilities and are so SO proud of her! "You go girl!" (hehehe)

Allison started crawling around Christmas, isn't it fun?! I like it because she's more independent but she also gets into everything she shouldn't! Glad you are doing well! Grace is so cute!

Way to go Grace. That is great. She will be walking by the time we are able to see her again. Thanks for sharing the video with us.
