Beginning to Pull Up

Crawls up the table to reach for her toy...

and she got it!!

It didn't take long after Lydia got this crawl thing down that she started to pull up on anything she could grip her sticky little hands on.  A few months ago I would think to myself (stupidly), what if she doesn't learn how to crawl, what if she doesn't learn how to pull herself up on things and then begin to walk.  I'm not sure why I had those thoughts, but I did.  And now she's crawling all over the place, chasing Riley, pulling herself up on furniture.  Before I know it she'll be walking.  

The other day I was feeding Lydia her bottle.  Watching her hold her little measuring cup while she drank and I just focused on her little bitty hand moving back and forth with the measuring cup.  I thought about the song by Trace Adkins called You're Gunna Miss This.  And I started tearing up.  I pictured Lydia being 10 years old and how much I would miss her being a little baby.  I know I'll enjoy her growing up and then eventually being embarrassed to be seen with me, it's just the thought of her not being a baby is weird to me.  I guess I'll just adjust as she grows.  I know only 3 months ago it was weird to imagine her boot scootin' all over the house and now she is.
