Backwards Process

Well, Sydney is making progress with her gross motor skills. However, that progress is actually going backwards. She can pretty much get where ever she wants by rolling, pivoting on her stomach, or stretching with one of her signature yoga moves. She has been pulling her hips up & rocking in a downward dog position just this week. If we could just get old stiffy here to bend her knees once in a while I think she'd have this crawling thing mastered. In the mean time, she's perfectly content with her current set of skills & isn't in any hurry to move forward.

Here she has backed herself under the couch
We had so much fun when Dad, Ally & Jamie came to visit, that we hardly took any pictures. Dad did, however, get this one of Ally putting Syd down for her morning nap. Sydney LOVES to turn the pages when you read to her. She doesn't even wait for you to finish the page before turning it, so its a good thing I have most of her books memorized by now. Needless to say, the then paper-paged books are put away for now because she's quite an aggressive little turner.
