Stumble, clink, bang, thud, thump!
The sound of my daughter moving around. Ever since the day she started walking, Amelia has had excellent balance. She never fell, danced in circles, ran, skipped and never fell over. God has that changed!
I was worried about this sudden tripping over everything but I have 2 theories.
First, I have read that when a toddler is working on a new skill the others become less interesting and so they don't work on them as much. For example, when Amelia was doing all the dancing and prancing around she hardly ever made a sound. Now that she's really working on all her sounds she seems to be ignoring her feet. She'll run towards animals, toys, on TV or signs making the sound of the animal...but she falls her way there! So I'm guessing when she's comfortable with some more words she'll start to put the two together!
Of course my other theory is... my husband is really really clumsy! He'll walk into things, trip up over nothing, drop things and yes he was in the army and was using weapons and yes he is a chef using very sharp knives everyday! Oi!
