Remember how I said a few posts back that Whitney was growing by leaps and bounds? Well, I wasn't kidding. Just a few days after my last post, she started pulling up all the way to standing. And, now she does it at the couch, in her bed, under the kitchen table on the chairs, even on random walls and doors. She hasn't quite figured out how to get down yet, though. So, much of my day consists of "rescue missions" to get her down from whatever interesting prop she pulled up on.
Amazingly enough, even with getting MORE teeth and mastering pulling up, Whitney started crawling on her hands and knees today! I'm really hoping that she keeps it up because I'd rather worry about dirty knees than dirty elbows, tummy, knees, and toes. (Hmm...that sounds almost like a primary song.)
On the tooth front, Whitney now has seven teeth--and judging from her behavior the last day or so, number 8 is cutting through as I type. Unfortunately, numbers 9 & 10 don't seem too far behind. Maybe they'll stall for a bit and give her a little break. At least she's not normally a fussy baby, right?
Last of all, this is something kind of funny, Whitney has discovered her finger-holders, (a.k.a. nostrils). I was holding Whitney the other day and someone was telling me how cute she is. Just as I turned to look at her, I saw her stick her finger up her nose. Yeah--real cute. She has her fingers in her nose all the time now. I hope she grows out of this phase relatively soon.

Way to go Whitney. What an exciting time for the both of you.
Way to go Whitney! Makai sticks his fingers up his nose too! It never fails that when someone talks to him or he is upset he sticks his finger in his nose...it's like a comfort for him or something. I sure hope he grwos out of it!
LOL Amanda! Brooklyn, too, has discovered them and is now picking her nose all the time because Josh is always laughing when she does it and it makes her do it more. Dads....they just don't get how hard we try to instill good manners ;-)
Some people never grow out of that phase... usually this is gender specific. And it's not girls.
Ah, makes me miss having a baby! They do grow up soo fast. I wish they wouldn't. But each milestone is important and so fun to witness!
Yeah to the crawling and the finger hole finding! Love your blog, every time. I also wanted to let you know that I tagged you! See my site for details!
