    My singleton started crawling at 5 months old. Then a week later she was able to get in a sitting position on her own. Then, less than a week after that she started pulling herself up and standing. I can't freakin' believe it. I swear she's cruising too; she moves around the side of her music table toy. I figured no one would believe me, so I had to conduct a stake out of her crib, and I caught this picture.

    My twins had/have great motor skills too, but Lena is even beating their performances. They crawled at 5 months, but didn't stand until 6 and 6.5 months, and didn't get in a sitting position until 7 months. Although Mark scaled the superyard at 7 months, LOL.

    Good lord, I'm in trouble if she's already this mobile, and I'm chasing 2, 2 year olds.

    Rachel, she sounds a lot like Kennedy! Show no fear. Now that she can walk around ( walking since 9 months) she has a blast playing with her sibling and stealing their favorite toys :)
    She was army crawling at 5 months, and pushing herself to a sit by her 6 month check. furniture surfing for sure by 7 months. the little one never stays "little" long enough!

    And off she goes, Momma! She sees those big brothers of hers getting around and is like, "Hmm...time for me to show them who's the boss!"

    I still can't believe it! She is such a cutie!

    I thought for sure Annabella would surpass her brothers in those areas seeing how she wanted to be like them and catch up to them! LOL! Funny how she was the last to crawl out of the three of them, and she walked just before 14 months old.

    Now-she is major T.R.O.U.B.L.E. WATCH OUT! She is more work than my boys-together-ever were!!! :laughing:

    She's already getting away from me, crawled right into the boys room and was playing on their mattress today. :)
