The fun has just begun!  She is crawling all over the place but it is not always easy to catch it on camera.  And it is nearly impossible to keep these floors clean, especially with a dog!  Right after I clean the floors, Mia manages to find the tiniest little things (grass, hair, fuzz, speck of cilantro from some past meal, grain of quinoa…who knows what she will find, despite my best efforts!).  She will sometimes show it to me or other times just put it straight in her mouth.  We can sometimes retrieve it from her mouth — though that is not easy — and sometimes not.  Oh well, I suppose kids have been putting stuff in their mouths for a long time…I like to think of it as an immunity-building and learning process.

Now, to the part you are most interested in: here are a few crawling videos.  First, a short bit of crawling and playing with toys: http://youtu.be/wUATnL7PDo8

Then more crawling, playing with Tico and going after other fun things: http://youtu.be/9bVid2eq2hw

And, a few more pics of one of our recent fall walks:

And another of Mia and Tico out walking around our town:

Almost forgot, I discovered and fixed a broken link in a previous post — the swinging link is now functional.  That’s all for today.
