A Little Slow, Part II

I love the Little One to pieces. She truly is the sweetest, most easy going child in the world. Yes, it could be that she is my last baby. Or it could be that she is not talking yet. Or it could be that she is not really walking yet. No matter the reason, she rocks.

She is a champ at going up the stairs, going down the stairs in another issue all together. We are working on getting her to go backwards down the stairs. It’s taken several months for her to get the concept, but she seems to get it now… almost

The problem is that she doesn’t fully understand the concept. You see when we are upstairs, and she decides that she is ready to go downstairs, she turns herself around and starts scooting backwards. It doesn’t matter if she is actually at the top of the stairs or 10 feet away from the top of the stairs or even if she is at the opposite end of the hallway. She turns around and starts scooting backwards.

Being the good mommy that I am, {once I stop laughing} I pick her up, carry her to the top of the stairs and help her go down them backwards.
