The Egg almost crawled this morning. She went from sitting to a low all-fours and made a move forward before falling on her belly. She then started rolling across the room where she started pulling Danny's CDs off the shelf. There goes a Sonic Youth CD ...off the shelf and in the mouth.

Dinner with Steph & John at our place last night.

Baby party last night at Steve/Kristina/Cora Skidmore's house. The Egg was in her element. Put all of Cora's toys in her mouth and played in her bouncy swing.
