About a week ago, Isabel started crawling. While she started younger than Cooper did, she has not taken off as quickly as Cooper did when he learned to crawl. Isabel still likes to sit and play in one spot, but is really enjoying the freedom of being able to go get a toy out of her reach. This has definitely gotten Cooper's attention. He's already started to become much more possessive of "his" toys. While he's always been so gentle and loving with her, the tables are starting to turn. It is not rare for him to hit her on the head with a toy out of the blue, or to simply reach over and push her. Oh boy...here we go. Fortunately, these negative behaviors are not the majority, but I'm sure this is only the beginning. She's also started trying to pull herself up onto her feet. Fortunately, she's not able to yet, but I see lots of bumped heads in our near future. But for now, she's very content with her crawling. Here's a little clip from last week, though she's already much more efficient than in the video! Needless to say, this has already made her parent's lives a little more busy as we can no longer leave the room and expect her to stay in the same place!
