Put me down!

Well, Chloe is officially mobile. VERY mobile. She started doing a belly crawl a couple weeks ago and now there is just no stopping her. I might as well put the exersaucer and Johnny Jumper away because she has no interest in them anymore. All she wants is to be put down so she can explore. The electrical outlets are especially appealing for some reason but she is pretty responsive to "no" so it's not been too bad. She is able to open drawers and cabinets. But she hasn't quite figured out how to go backwards, so she'll get trapped sometimes against a wall. Maybe I'm having mommy brain but I don't remember Noah or Claire being so active at this age.

Chloe's taking 2 naps during the day, a short one in the morning and then a longer one in the afternoon. I put her down for the night around 7:30 or 8pm and she sleeps hard until 6:30 or 7am. I can't complain about that, huh?

Still no teeth. I'm waiting until she gets some toofers before I start any solids. Maybe I'll give her sauerkraut as her first food like I did w/ Claire. I can't help but wonder if that's why Claire is such a hearty eater now. She and Noah have been chowing down on kimchi (Korean sauerkraut) the last few days. We went thru a quart of it in 3 days! I'll have to post the recipe sometime. I made 4 quarts this past weekend but I don't think that's going to last us very long at this rate.
