The Reverse Function

Although Gabriela cannot move forward in a prone position, her reverse works just fine. I've watched her push herself back more than 10 feet in a matter of seconds (while she was excitedly trying to get to a toy in front of her, bless her heart!)

And she doesn't just limit the reverse function to her floor time - she also likes to use it while in her crib. She has been sleeping swaddle-free most nights for the last two weeks. And now I frequently hear her either laughing like a lunatic or crying in frustration and walk into her room to find scenes like these.




Her bedding set only came with bumper pads for three sides. I am thinking about moving the one from the head of her bed to the other end. Although the second I do that, I'm certain she'll start crawling forward and bonking her head on the rails then! (And to be honest, I do enjoy the good giggle when I walk in and find two little legs kicking like crazy out the end of her crib!)

Oh my word, that is so funny. I am so glad you caught it on film! Hearing your child laugh on their own is one of the most rewarding things about parenthood. Enjoy!!!
