So Active!

Yummy TV remote!

Standing upright is so much fun!

Daphne is running us ragged with her newfound mobility. She is a proficient crawler and will actually crawl faster if you call to her not to go to a particular location. Daphne is also pulling up on anything that will get her to a standing position. She has even pulled up on flat surfaces such as the dishwasher. The other day she pulled up on a mirrored closet door and she repeatedly licked the mirror, or was she licking herself? We still put Daphne in the ExerSaucer sometimes to contain her but she starts to get fussy after a while.

I remember this stage being exhausting with Tyler but it's worse this time around because Tyler has so many accessible toys. If Tyler is actively playing with something such as his train tracks we will run interference so that Daphne doesn't pull up all the tracks. But we have told Tyler that anything he leaves out is fair game for Daphne to play with, slobber on, or chew. And certain toys that we don't want Daphne chewing on (like Matchbox cars) get confiscated when left out.
