Milestone of the Day: Katie's crawling!

What a fun age this is! As Katie approaches the 9-month birthday this week, it seems like she is doing something new everyday. Her favorite activity right now is grabbing onto Mommy (while I'm sitting) and pulling herself up to standing so she and I are face to face.

Today we were at a playgroup at my friend Sara's house, and Sara's cat Misty was a few feet away from Katie. Katie was so excited that she decided to get to the cat as fast as she could -- and that meant crawling for the first time!

While I didn't catch the crawl on film, here she is a few minutes later trying to crawl toward Misty again (and not quite doing it).


Oh, and you'll see that she's wearing the patch in this video. We had an eye appointment yesterday and got a good report from the doctor. While he encouraged us to continue to patch her eye, he was delighted that her blocked tear duct has finally cleared up on its own and that she is apparently not favoring one eye over the other. We're thanking God for His healing and for the good report. While there's still a discrepancy between her eyes, it definitely could be worse.
