Now I don't know if you could call this crawling or not, but I'd say it's pretty close, don't you? I am downright proud of this little girl for figuring this out all on her own. (Well, she did have some help from her big brother Simeon who demonstrated the army crawl for her last night). Look, she knows what she wants, and by golly she's gonna get it!
By the way, you may want to turn the sound down if you're sensitive to the sound of noisy baby toys or teeth grinding! Eeeek.

That is so amazing it brought tears to my eyes just watching it. To see how far she has come now that she is in a loving family.
Whoo-hoo....way to go Ava!!!! Now that you have that Army crawl down pat, I'm going to send you some pink camo ;)
YAY!!!!!!!!!!! way to GO ava!!!!! you are what we call "inch worming"!
WAHOO! Way to go Ava! I am absolutely amazed at how far she has come in such a short time! Just goes to show what the love of a family can do!
That is too cute! Look at her go! But OMgosh on the teeth grinding! that is really loud, does she do it all the time or when she is working on something. My girls don't teeth grind but they do other annoying things with their mouths over and over, too hard to explain unless you saw it.
will I ever read here and NOT cry great big happy tears? LOOK at her go!!
hey Charissa...you might buy her a battery operated kids toothbrush, it will help give her some of the oral stimulation she is looking for...but let it be her thing, as I know she had aversions to things in her mouth...if she chews it it will feel good and decrease some of that grinding.
Yay, Ava! I love all that kicking and flapping, figuring out just what to do. She's SO cute.
Awesome, we call that crawling at our house. How exciting.
Awww Charissa that is just awesome! WTG Ava!!!
We're clapping for you, Ava!
(smiling) That is awesome, yay! She is figuring it out ... go girl!
Way to go Ava!! (and mommy too!!)
She reminds me so much of Emma, it is something else. E still loves rolling too much to want to go FORWARD yet tho ;)
One day we'll have to get these two girls together!
Great job!!
Meredith
Yeah, she did it, I´d classify this as a forward chest roll advance. But she has got the knack...she repeated the move enough to see that she is propelling...good work! Opa
You go Ava! She gets from A to B.. That is so huge!! I am so proud of you.
Oh yeah, baby, she's movin!!! Way to go Ava!
Shelley - definitely, bring on the pink camo!
WOW!!!
WOW!!!
She not only did it, she is going to do even more.
You go, Ava!
*WOW* I am so proud of all of you Charissa!! Ava is surrounded by a great family and she has come so far! Congrats to all
Christy
Doesn't surprise me at all! She's making SO much progress.... and you are doing EVERYTHING possible to help her along, including modeling from older siblings, lots of love, therapy, good nutrition, continual miraculous intervention from God. WOW.
Sensitive to teeth grinding? Um...YES... I think God has given you an extra Grace on that one. Like...seriously.
