Mya also became mobile - which we were mildly dreading. Luckily she's not that fast yet. She's got a hybrid crawl thing going on - where one leg is in the crawl position and the other's in the army crawl position. It basically looks like she's dragging one of her legs beneath her and pushing off with the other one. I don't know if she'll ever learn to crawl properly - she seems pretty content with the way she's getting around now. Mason, however, does not seem too happy about this new situation. Particularly when Mya crawls her way over to his trains and pulls the tracks off the table. Luckily no one has been injured over this yet - Mason has been showing remarkable restraint.
Mya also started standing up by herself. She'll let go for a few seconds before losing her balance and reaching for whatever she can to steady herself. While she's latched on to the couch, she'll take baby steps along it from one side to the other.
One of the most exciting new things for Mya is that she says "wow!" She especially repeats it when Adam says it first. It's really is cute to hear her say "wow, wow, WOW!" (Really she's not saying wow, just making the sound of it, but either way we love it.)
I've always heard the saying "they grow up so fast." And while I always believed it, this week has made it feel especially true. Our baby is going to be a toddler before we know it!
