We've got ourselves...a scooter!

The past week and a half Jensen has been working very hard on crawling. Up on the knees, get those arms up and then the minute she's ready to launch forward...face plant. So she's taken to the time honored army crawl. She is slithering around the house with great speed these days. It's so fun to watch her move around. She'll spot off-limits items such as a cell phone or a laptop and then there's no stopping her. She will do whatever it takes, scooting, half crawling, rolling, whatever to get there!

Of course this is a big change for me. I can't just put her on the floor and know that she'll be in that vicinity in 5 minutes. Nope. In a matter of one minute she could be in the next room! It's amazing how fast that little one gets around. The house is slowly being baby-proofed.

The magazines are now put up, the plugs covered, and the baby gate installed. Davis and Aggie aren't too pleased with the new found skill...not only are they now fun moving targets, but the baby gate is a little intimidating. Aggie, for one, thinks it's going to eat him so he runs through it at lightening speed. Davis is a little more relaxed about it, but still gets scared when it closes, hides his tail and goes running. We'll see how they really react when Jensen is even more mobile and their sanctuary of the couch or their beds is not an option any more! Bwahahahaha! They'll be in for it!
