Tirzah isn't exactly "mobile" yet. I am living in fear of that day...because it will be the last day I sit down. Maybe ever. But in the last few days she's taken to rolling wherever she wants to go.
Which mostly seems to be under my desk. It doesn't seem to matter where I put her, either, she always manages to roll under my desk where I keep all my camera equipment. Maybe she's interested in photography...or just in being photographed like her brother seems to be. Pull out a camera and they're all "cheese".
I'm hoping for a calm toddler...but her behavior since the rolling started leads me to believe I may not be getting lucky with the calmness. Merrick wasn't really fast about learning to crawl or walk, but once he did...it was straight craziness. I'm not sure what kind of toddler Tirzah will be, whether she'll climb, crash, jump, trip, flip etc, like her brother, or if she'll have mercy.
I'm not one to shirk my motherly duties, but have to admit to looking the other way a bit while she rolls under various pieces of furniture. It's not like it seems to bother her, and usually, she rolls right back out on her way somewhere else.
Even Merrick seems to ignore the rollie pollie in the floor, kind of stepping around or over her like a speed bump. Only once did I have to say the words "Merrick do not put your sister in a headlock."
I figure a day where I only have to say that once is probably a good one. ;)
