Big event

Emily is crawling. Just now ( Thursday, 1:45 pm). Though apparently this isn't such a big deal, we've been told. Sitting up is a much bigger developmental milestone, and she's been doing that for a while now. Some babies never really crawl--they scoot around a little and then start walking. Still, I'm glad, for her sake--she's been getting very frustrated by objects that are out of reach, and now she can get to them. You're not supposed to move things closer to her, but usually we do because we can't stand to see her so unhappy.
