Ruby is now officially walking. She stills crawls, especially if she’s eager to get somewhere quickly, but walking seems to be her preferred method of transport. Now that she’s got the overall hang of things, she’s much more persistent in standing up again after she falls down. And she falls down a lot. But her practice is paying off and we’ve seen a huge improvement in her stability just in the past day or so.
Perhaps coincidentally, perhaps not, we’ve also seen an increase in crabiness and overall attitude the past two days. She’s added the phrase “no no no no no no” to her repertoire, although thankfully she doesn’t use it very often. She’s become more demanding and a little harder to please.
If I fell over every six steps, I’d be in kind of a bad mood too.
