Not long after Abigail mastered her turnover skills, she is able to crawl on her belly at 6 months 2 weeks old (~ if I am not wrong!). This milestones achivement is a great celebration and a leap of achievement for Abigail but it is also marked the start of "headache" for the me and Ivan.
Abigail did the same movement as Annabelle, the commando crawl. She was quite fast in mastering this skills and the moment she is put on the floor, the next minutes she is on her belly and the next minutes she is on the floor from the play-mat.
Abigail loves the coolness of the floor and she will normally crawl out from the mat towards the floor. What I used to worry was, "If she will knock herself onto the floor?"; but Abigail has demonstrated a good skills that reduced my worries. This is because, Abigail is good in sensing the surface of the floor is hard; when she needs to rest her head she does it very gentlely and slowly.
But, she developed a bad habit. She will crawl towards the chair/ sofa and will like to move herself slowly under the chair/ sofa. Just yesterday, I came out from the kitchen; looking and searching for her, all that I saw was her head but both her legs are under the chair. Do not ask me how she went in? "I do not know!" She just like to do that.
Oh yes, when we carried her or removed her from place where she can't be; the outcome will be a crying baby. That is what Ivan papa said this morning to me: "It is time to discipline Abigail!"... :)
