Gettin' 'round

Vivian is getting very good at moving around lately. A few weeks ago she learned how to army-crawl around the floor, which has lead us to finally baby-proof the living room (although she still loves to crawl over and try to grab the power cord to my laptop...) She has also learned how to go from a sitting position to a crawl. I can't wait until she learns how to sit up from a crawl. Right now she gets down and crawls around, but can't sit up again to play with her toys..which makes her cranky.

Speaking of cranky, Vivian does this nice little trick where she is perfectly well behaved in public, fooling everyone into thinking she is the best baby ever. However, once we get home she puts on her cranky-pants. To be fair, her two front teeth have been making good progress bursting out of her gums. She also seems to no longer want her evening nap (which used to be around 6:30 to 8:30pm.) On the bright side, she still sleeps through the night, so we think that she isn't as tired as most kids her age and would rather get another hour of playing in before retiring.
