She's very mobile now. Not crawling but doing the most lady-like butt scoot with her legs bent to the side and if you were sitting here with us you wouldn't think she is going anywhere. But soon you'll notice that, hey, how did she get all the way over there?
She'll be in the same position but now playing with the toy that was a few feet away just moments before. She's grabbed a book or found paper to crumple or that one lone piece of fuzz the vacuum missed.
In a relationship. Your faith. A few extra pounds.
A little smidge can take you very far away. Over time.

She is just delicious! Wouldn't it be nice to just be able to stretch out and relax like that?
ReplyDeleteOhhh, that's my favorite thing in the world... watching babies sleep :)
ReplyDeleteShe's a schmoopy! (That's a good thing)
And great point in the end there.
Dash likes to sleep like that too. It's adorable, isn't it? So relaxed.

PS
What photo editing software do you use?
I have some great pictures like. My son sleeps like my husband, arms over his head and mouth hanging open. I love my sleeping boys.
ReplyDeleteI love this picture! She is the best baby and I'm not just saying that cause she's my grand-daughter. I think that bum scootin' is the cutest way of getting around. She is 100% girly.
ReplyDeleteSo true.
ReplyDeleteShe's lovely! Is there anything more precious than a sleeping baby?
Sleeping babies are the best! They're so sweet and so utterly content. Yours is especially delightful! :)
ReplyDeleteohhhhhhhhhhh .... she is sooooo cute!!! Such a little lovie!!!! I LOVE that picture. She looks so happy, so content. Lovely, lovely, lovely. And you made some great points too!
ReplyDeleteI canNOT wait to meet her and eat her up. That is, if you don't mind trading babes for a bit to do so.
ReplyDeleteYou and I blogged similarly today lol
Growing Up
Well, that is just one of the most true statements I have ever heard. Baby Sister inch worms but she gets around the room. Faster if you are not watching it seems. :)
ReplyDeleteShe's beautiful! Complete abandon is exactly what I'm learning most from my baby daughter (9 weeks old). We could all learn how to strech out and let go!
ReplyDeletevery true. I want to rub her tummy just like a little kitten.
ReplyDeleteShe is so sweet Steph! Nothing like a sleeping baby! Except a sleeping baby at night!
ReplyDeleteLook how happy she is!!! Ohmygoodness I just want to squeeeeeze her. :)
ReplyDeleteIsn't that the truth? A smidge just seems to creep up on us, doesn't it? Over the past 2 years, I gained a little over 15 pounds. Where the heck did that come from?
ReplyDeleteOh, bum scooting is the funniest! She is so precious.
ReplyDeleteHow sweet is that photo! And so true a little bit goes a long way!
ReplyDeleteOh my, that is the MOST adorable sleeping baby picture I have EVER seen. Could she be any cuter? I don't think so.
ReplyDelete-Abby
Where do you get that perspective of yours from? I want some of it. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat sweet thoughts! I remember those pre-crawling days when you wonder just how the baby got across the room. Heartwarming.
ReplyDeleteCute cute! Gretchen sleeps like that too -- and according to my partner Ryan, so do I!
ReplyDeleteI am not sure how I came to find you but I am glad I did. Oh great... another blog to follow. grin. It is so fun to find another mama that is only a little "crunchy" but still has a passion for homebirth.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful picture of your baby!
ReplyDeletethat's how my little angel sleeps - unless she is in "favorite sleeping position #2" on her belly with her legs tucked under her and her rear end sticking up in the air :)
ReplyDeletealso such a truth at the end... a smidgen at a time really can take us farther than we could ever imagine
She just gets cuter and cuter! I love your description of her scooting. Babies are just such a joy!
ReplyDeleteMy little one is just the same. We call it the "big X" move as she looks like a capital X with her arms and legs stretched out!
ReplyDeleteyou should get it on video! and love the picture!
ReplyDeleteThat is about the cutest thing I have ever seen in my life. And let me tell you, I have seen cute.
ReplyDeleteThose last two sentences just slayed me.
