A Morning Surprise

On Monday, Mommy and Daddy woke up early and were in a big hurry.  They had to go to court to deal with "Trash".  (At least that's what Ella told me.)  While Mommy was getting Ella ready, she sat me on the floor and gave me some toys to play with.  After Ella was all dressed, Ella was playing at her table and Mommy started making her bed.  I thought it looked more fun where Ella was, so I headed over.  Ella noticed I was crawling right away but Mommy was too busy. 

Finally she looked down and saw me crawling.  She was so excited!  She kept putting things I wanted across the room to see if I would go after them, and I did.  Every time!  Then she got the camera so she could take a video of it but as soon as I saw the camera, I wanted that.  Mommy is very smart and started the camera.  Then she put it down on the floor.  I immediately went chasing after it.  Now she has a great video of me coming straight for the lens :)

As soon as Daddy got out of the shower, Mommy told him of my adventures.  Then to prove to him that I could do it, I crawled over towards him.  He was just as excited as Mommy!  Scratchy came over because he was going to watch Ella and me so Mommy showed him my new skill too.  Scratchy was very impressed.  I just love when everyone thinks the things I do are amazing!

I've only been crawling for 3 days but I think Mommy is wishing I was immobile again.  I keep getting into things and trying to eat things I'm not supposed to eat.  I think she is tired of constantly distracting me.  I think she should enjoy this while she can because although I'm glad I can now crawl to get to places, what I really want to do is walk.  I've been pulling up on Mommy now and I like to stand all of the time, for long periods of time.  It won't be long before I take off running.  I can't wait to watch Mommy chase after me!
