Our little hopper

So Taylor is nearly 14 months old! Wow, writing that just scared me because our 2nd little girl will be here in about 3 months. Yikes! Anyway, to get back on topic.....Taylor is almost 14 months and refuses to WALK! I know, I know....don't worry about it, we should be enjoying her crawling, etc etc. The thing is, she doesn't really crawl either. Well, she does crawl but 90% of the time she actually hops...on her knees. It's a hop/scoot because she gets around...and is pretty efficient with her mode of transportation. I don't know where she picked this up...she WAS always a big fan of the jumper and since she isn't in that much anymore, this must be her replacement. I guess in her mind she's thinking, "Who needs to walk when you can hop!" Thank goodness it's still long pants season because by the end of the day her little knees are bright red - sometimes they look like rug-burns! Isn't that awful?! But she still insists on being the little energizer bunny that she is! Have you ever seen anything quite like this?! (Don't worry, we have plenty of "hopping footage" on our video cam to show her when she's bigger).
