Stella has been experimenting with walking on her own these past few weeks. She’s a bit wobbly as her feet still turn out fairly far but she’s working it. She walked across the kitchen and into the living room a few nights ago and she can be encouraged to walk…if we stand her up and [...] At our 12-month checkup last month, Dr. Rose expressed some concern that Elise was standing and Stella was not. She casually mentioned that if Stella wasn’t up on her feet we might want to consider some physical therapy. Enter Mommy panic mode. A whole year old today, Stella! A milestone for both parents and children alike. Happy Birthday Stella! Ladies and Gentlemen we have a new runner. Miss Stella Madeline is up on her knees and crawling. She’s giving her sister a run for the money and running through the house end to end. Stella did what babies are supposed to do and last month (gulp–bad late posting mom) she turned 9 months old. She saw her regular doctor, Dr. Rose, who hadn’t seen Stella since her 2-month check-up. What a difference six months make! She’s hardly the same teeny thing she was at birth. While I was sure Stella was on the verge of crawling, she hasn’t yet started with the traditional hands and knee locomotion. She does, however, move with a very nice combination of “commando crawl” and rolling. That second little tooth is visible now. Sweet, sweet two-toothed grin. Stella popped her bottom tooth. At first it looked as though both bottom teeth had come in, but then the swelling went crazy and only one tooth remained. The front right. Stella wants to move. And although the baby book assures me she won’t really crawl until she sits first, I might have to disagree. |
