Is it a good thing to be mobile?

Keziah's motor skills seem to grow by leaps and bounds with the days. She is now more happy standing than being on her fours. Well that means everyone has to really watch her. She now ventures out of her padded play area onto the marble floor on her fours. Crawling and occasionally sitting up, she seems to coordinate quite well. She has too found the stairs. She would prop herself up on her feet by leaning against the stairs. Being so curious about things, she starts to try to take little steps on her own while at the stairs. Sadly she is yet to be there and loses her balance, falling right over! Oh dear, this is the first time with me that she has bummed her head. Thankfully it wasn't too hard a fall. Next thing u know, she tries to grab her feet and stand up. Please don't ignore her thinking that she will juz sit down on the floor after realising that she is still unable to do that. She has a mind of her own and definitely a persistent girl. She tried and then again losing her grib, she fell. Arghh..again hit her head. I think I should buy her a HELMET to protect her little head. While playing with her grandpa, the same thing happen but this time I think it's cause she tried to prop herself up by pulling on her wobbly activity gym. All in all she hurt herself 3 times. With her now roaming all over the place, I wish I had a padded floor as her play area is simply not big enough to satisfy her.

Today I guess she just didn't have enough sleep and so was rather highly strung, losing her senses and coordination, making her rather clumsy as well. At dinner table, for no reason she wailed like the world collapsed. It was so loud that mummy didn't know how to calm her down as the usual carrying and rocking didn't work. Tried nursing her. She was quiet for awhile and was back to her miserable wails. Desperate mummy was really about to cry too! She was passed to and fro between grandma and mummy till we finally tried to distract her with her storybooks and it worked! Thank God that she was back to her normal self. Was so afraid she choked or something just wasn't right.
