- Well, I can`t pretend that Melinda is a pretty averages
- sort of baby anymore. She'll be 6 months old next week,
- and this week she started to crawl. Not roll or creep,
- this is a full-fledged crawl!
-
- I dug out my baby development books & sure enough Melinda
- is *early*. I showed the book to her & informed her, "See,
- you aren't supposed to be doing this yet. It says so right
- here! And, I'm not ready for this!!" Didn't do me any
- good. :) :)
-
- Sigh. And my pediatrician kept saying that big babies
- (she's closing in on 19 lbs) might be slow to reach the
- physical milestones. I had hoped we'd make it through
- Christmas.
-
- Ah well, I guess things are only starting to get exciting;
- she's definitely trying to pull-up on stuff. I guess she'll
- be an early walker too. I just didn't expect such an
- easy-going, good-natured, big baby to be this active.
