She's Crawling!!

At five months and four days old, Allie crawled for the first time!!

This afternoon, Joy and Allie went to spend time with some friends, Courtney and her seven-month-old, Wyatt. Well, Miss Allie spent the entire time showing off for Mr. Wyatt. (Uh-oh, she's already starting!) Her showing off consisted of pushing herself up with her arms and alternating with a simple push-up with her legs still flat, a push-up on her toes and up on hands and knees. Now, all these things she's done before--perhaps not for such extended periods of time, but she's done them. At one point while she was on her hands and knees, she moved one knee forward with her hand. I didn't get too excited because she's almost done that before. Then, she went forward with one hand/knee and then the other!

Of course, I didn't have my camera or video camera; and once Courtney got hers out, Allie decided not to show off anymore. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that little miss started crawling to show off for a boy! Stinker!

She and Wyatt got along well. They had a few stare-downs. They smiled and talked "baby talk." Allie didn't object when Wyatt took her toys. They both showed off for each other. And, they held hands. (It's cute right now when they can barely crawl, in a few years that will be a different story!)

Well, we just wanted to share Allie's milestone with you. Sorry there are no pictures to accompany it, but here is a little fun picture I worked up earlier today:
