Baby V is army crawling. Yes, she’s only 4 months old but apparently someone forgot to tell her she can’t do that yet. I’ve tried, but now that she knows how she’s not listening to me. Apparently, I also crawled at 4 months. My mom claims it was full out crawling on hands and knees, though. I’m not sure I believe *that* but it definitely seems like mini-me is following in my footsteps. She’s also trying to get those knees underneath her which terrifies me. Maybe it’s a good thing she rarely is allowed to be on the floor?
She also loves to suck her toes. I think it is so strange to find her with a toe in her mouth, sucking like it’s going to give milk, but she does it! My mom claims I used to do this, too. Neither of my boys did this so it’s definitely a weird one to me.
And then there’s her personality. This girl can charm the socks off of anyone. If she’s fussing, someone will go check on her and she immediately smiles, giggles, coos, and generally makes herself so adorable that you can’t help but pick her up and love on her. Clearly she takes after me with this adorable and engaging personality. (That’s a joke, by the way!) But seriously, my mom tells me I was very similar. My dad used to call me effervescent because I was so bubbly and charming.
I can’t wait to see my mom in a couple of weeks so she can see just how much V is doing now, and how similar she is to me as a baby. Looks like me, acts like me, and I’m sure I’ve said it before…we are in so much trouble in about 13 years!
