Yes, crawling. This week, Tuesday actually, Chloe finally figured out she could propel herself forward under her own power. Many times before have I left her on her stomach and she kicked her feet, dug them into the carpet and pulled with her arms only to get frustrated and roll over. On Tuesday, I was letting her do her thing only instead of giving up, she pushed herself forward and kept going until she moved about 4 feet. I grabbed the video camera in disbelief and pulled her back and voila: she did it again. From there, she was off. While technically what I'm told she's doing is an "Army Crawl", she found all four corners of the room in no time. It's amazing how people said as soon as she figured it out, she would just keep going...they were right.
As I suspected, her favorite target is the dog(the cat stays hidden pretty well). It will only get more interesting once she gets up on all fours and starts really going fast. =)
So this week a few pics of her roaming around and a short video showing her in action. This all on almost exactly the 1 year anniversary of us being in the hospital last year and all the chaos/drama that came with that. Thankfully everything worked out the way it did and here we are a year later with this gorgeous little girl. It's all in the past(as they say). =)

I think it was her Nike shirt. Some girls, like Chloe, are born champions. ;) She "Just Did It"!! Go Chloe, Go!!
