Blog | Motoring
Brianna still does not walk by herself (although we think she can), but she does stand (briefly) by herself, and her favorite activity these days is motoring around behind her walker. With a little steering help, she goes and goes and goes — around the kitchen island, into the living room, left at the stairs, u-turn at the door, right past the stairs, into the kitchen, around the island…
She occasionally stops at the stairs to climb up and down the stairs a few times. She is getting very good (and quick!) at both, and even understands that she needs to orient herself at the top of the stairs so that she can go down butt first (no face first please…). Yesterday, she seemed to figure that out with the chairs, too. Anytime she wanted down from a chair (including the big “adult” chairs), she would roll over onto her belly, dangle her feet off the side, and push until her feet hit the floor. This was also a game for a while — up into the chair (or have me lift her into the chair), sit up, roll over, out of the chair, repeat…
While she still does not bother with the contents of any cabinet or drawer (although I think that will end very soon), she LOVES banging the cabinet doors. She will move back and forth between the locked and unlocked ones so that she can create different banging sounds.
