And We're Off!

It has been a little over a month since our monkey has been on all fours.  I feel like the ghosts chasing after Pacman.  If we were a video game, we have now gone from the Easy level to Moderate.  Anything on her level is fair game.  Items on shelves are now strewn all over floors, cupboards, drawers, and doors are fun, the dogs water dish is always empty, and she's learned how to dumpster dive.  Most recently, she has tapped into the diaper bag pocket with the treats and now crawls through the house with her zip loc surprise-- two dogs following.

No peanut allergies so far since her new chew toys are the dog gongs with left over peanut butter residue. She no longer likes "baby" food. It's mommy's food as well as dirt, grass, rocks, phone book pages, and just about anything she finds on her searches.  Our little squirt has accumulated many toys from those who love her most, however lids, utensils, boxes, cardboard, paper, and most importantly the remote are the only things that seem to keep her happy.  She giggles non stop as the dogs are "hilarious" when they bark or snap back at her after she has invaded their eyeballs, noses, and ears.  When she comes a crawlin, they get a walkin. 

Getting "under" things is fun whether it is under the bar stools (with Snickers), the dining room table or even the bottom shelf of the linen closet or pantry.  Her most favorite sitting spot is under her highchair as it has wheels she can push around the kitchen. She is also standing up onto things most recently the edge of the tub to watch mommy give Snickers a bath instead of her.  

It won't be long and we will be onto the next level of our video game- Difficult.  Soon we will have her on two legs at high speed as well as speaking words with her main vocabulary being "NO".   I love this game we're playing no matter what level we are on.  My little Pacman will continue to run and this ghost will keep trying to keep up, even when I run out of quarters, our game will never be over.
