We started this day with a little girl who still complained when we gave her tummy time. She couldn't roll over, but she could spin around. During this afternoon's tummy session, Salem figured out how to roll over and did it with abandon all over the bed. She even attempted to crawl. She was elated, giggling and so proud of herself.
Well, when bedtime came, Salem was bouncing all over the walls. She was so excited about all her new tricks, she was giggling and moving all over the bed. She worked on crawling a bit more but never got it together. We were amazed by how far she's come. She was so wired, she didn't want her last bottle. We finally put her to bed and started packing. Suddenly, we looked up to see her STANDING IN HER CRIB! She was beaming ear to ear, dancing and rocking against the rails. You have got to be kidding me. We guess that the last three days are the first time she's had the opportunity to try these things (or the first time she was forced to do something besides cling to mama). After the last hour and a half of hard play, she is finally settling down a bit.When she finally does fall asleep, she's going to sleep like a rock!And when we get to Guangzhou, I'm going to have to lower the crib floor. I think somebody switched my spider monkey out for a barrel of monkeys!
