Jenna is now moving around...but not crawling like the traditional way (hands and knees). Our baby crawls like an inch worm. She pulls up on her arms and then brings her whole body forward (like an inch worm). This is the way she has found to be the best mode of transportation, although it takes a few extra minutes to get where she wants to go.
Recently she has found a bin of remotes and will go on the hunt for them.

| Remotes found! |
I was getting a little concerned that we were never going to have a baby that crawls. Especially when we go to Book Babies at the library and see other babies her age crawling fast and beginning to take steps. Meanwhile, we are sitting quietly together watching the madness of crawling/scooting/walking. I wish I had my camera when we are around other babies. Jenna stares at everyone as if she is studying what is going on and is vigorously sucking her thumb (I think she has some social anxiety). Most of the time we sit and play with the 3-6 month olds aka the non-mobile ones. After awhile she warms up and will start smiling and socializing. We have been on several play dates lately and each time we have to sit together and watch everything before she will make her move to a toy she wants. It is very funny to see her like this and hoping she will feel more confident & social when she is fully mobile.
