This week we had excellent and alarming news. Not only can margot climb, but she can also crawl!

Like most Tuesdays I worked from home today in order to experience delivering her to and picking her up from Nursery. When I arrived today she crawled over to me and grabbed my leg; the first time I've seen either thing happen.

It was quite endearing and meant I didn't much mind the following ten minute struggle (with an audience) to wedge her rigid banana-shaped body into the pushchair for the walk home.

While at Ellie Byrne's house on the Wirral this weekend, Margot astonished her Dad by climbing up a chair to the standing position, and then walking herself along the furniture to a huge toy bucket.
