Gabriella has always been a little monkey. She started to push up on her hands and knees to crawl when she was five months old (pink), and by the time she turned 6 months, she was crawling everywhere.
It is so exciting to see a baby do new things, but it is also sad because you can't stop them from growing. At this point, Gabby wanted nothing to do with being held and cuddled....She just wanted down! A few weeks after she began crawling, she figured out how to pull up and cruise (7 months).
Aunt Lena was responsible for introducing Gabby to her first candy around Halloween. Gabby was a ladybug! (7 months)
This child was a climbing machine. We couldn't stop her. We just had to spot her. Here are some climbing pictures of Gabby before she turned 8 months.
First Thanksgiving - constipated (Gabby not Papa)
Gabby took her first steps during Christmas of 2003 (9 months), and she was running by her 10 month b-day. Her baby months went too quickly.
