My Lil' Tulip Farmer

You've got to wake up mighty early to keep up with this little farmer. (You can see how dark it is in the background!) Does daylight savings affect Sloane's tulip farms in Amsterdam? You'll have to ask her. One thing is for sure: this lil' farmer loves to rock the red pedicure.

Also, there is not much update on the mobility front, but there is something worth mentioning. Sloane has started to lunge forward from a seated position onto her belly in order to get things that are slightly out of reach. On Monday afternoon she was really straining herself trying to crawl and it was REALLY cute. She'll get one foot planted on the ground and stretch it so you think she'll bend the knee and then get up on her knees, but then she can't figure out what to do with the other leg and the plan just goes to hell. She has been able to back up a few inches though. She was pretty patient and working at it for about 10-15 minutes. I kept clapping for her and showing how excited I was, but that might have just confused her. She didn't seem to buy that "success is just around the corner," as I had promised.
