You can't keep Simone down. While she still spends a lot of time sitting and playing with stuff, she's on the prowl a lot, especially when you move to a different room and she feels the need to stalk you.
Her crawling has pretty quickly progressed to pulling up on anything, any chance she gets. It's usually me or Jfer, but it can also be furniture, dishwasher, or really, pretty much anything she can get a grab on. So far the dogs haven't been exploited this way, but it's only a matter of time.
The major problem with this is bath time, because she often insists to stand up and try to get out of the tub (especially when I wash her hair). We do have a bath mat, but the tub wall is still pretty slick, and at times it feels like I'm wrestling a slippery fish. She's having a blast but it's weird going through this with her several months earlier than with Magda.

Unfortunately she also tries to pull up things that aren't heavy enough or well balanced enough to support her. Sometimes it's funny like when she was using the pillow on the bed this evening. Most times it's sad like when she tries to use the kid chairs in the kitchen and ends up bonking her head on the floor.
And changing her diaper is also quite a workout. I've already switched to pullups, but it's still a huge challenge to get her changed while she's trying to turn over and crawl away.
