This is how Allie looked in the babycam after she’d been down a couple of hours last night, and this is what freaks Mr. W out:

“She’s got her face pinned in by the bear’s head!” Actually, no she doesn’t, because here’s how she looks from the other angle of the bed, photo taken at the same time:

I’d tried to explain this to Mr. W before, but because the bear used to be situated higher on the bed so that she wouldn’t end up past it on the other side against the bumper (Mr. W’s idea) when she moves in her sleep, her head would be hidden by the railing and be invisible from the other camera. So the only view Mr. W would get was the first one. Now he’s decided the bear should be moved back down again because then at least her head is farther from the bumper when she moves off the bear.
But she ends up moving up and over the bear anyway throughout the night. See the following sequence, and how we found her this morning, sound asleep.


Goes to show, when the baby learns some mobility, she’s gonna sleep where she wants. It’s fine.

Yesterday, Allie belly-scooted halfway around the perimeter of the living room rug playing with blocks and such. She also pulled herself onto her knees from a sitting position by clutching at Mr. W’s belt and shirt (he was laying on his side in front of her). At this rate she’ll probably be crawling by next week.
