Lexi Is Crawling!

Or should I say creeping! Lexi has started the Army crawl (although, in our house we like to call it the Marine crawl). She loves her newfound freedom of crawling. In fact, sometimes I have to trap her in the living room so that I can get things done. She is like a human vacuum. Anything she finds on the floor, she puts directly in her mouth. She sure is trying to make me a better housekeeper!

I know most of you are probably thinking.....isn't Lexi almost a year old? Yes, she will be 1 in less than a month (where has all the time gone?), however, Paige didn't even roll over at a year old. She ended up being diagnosed with a gross motor development delay and was in physical therapy. Paige crawled at 13 1/2 months and walked at 18 months. I had the same delay and the doctor thinks that it is hereditary. She said not to worry too much. All it means is that my kids will be late walkers, but early talkers.

So I am thrilled that at 10 1/2 months Lexi started to crawl (or creep). Hopefully, we won't have to do physical therapy!
