Army Crawling

Just yesterday he started "army crawling." It's sort of like the legs are going but the arms are all in the way! It's hilarious! His forearms get all bright red from doing it. However, he will only do it when he is really motivated bc it seems to take all of his energy just to move his tall body along the floor. I love it. It's a crack up to watch. It's kind of like watching me climb up a huge flight of stairs. Ha!

He also says "Mama, Dada, Nana" (he's been saying these for a while now) and a few other babbling things. He likes to breathe in and out loudly, shake his head to mimic us, wrinkle up his nose, stand up (oh man, he definitely loves to stand) while holding onto something, ride "horsey" on my knee, and play with anything that is not a baby toy (meaning TV remotes, cell phones, house phones, xbox controllers, etc).

He still only has the 2 teeth, but they are all the way out now and lookin' good. He also has been experimenting with his voice. He loves to yell somtimes in these crazy, short bursts! He will strain so hard doing it that you think he'll pop out a blood vessell. He is so cute! I am amazed at how much joy this child brings to my life everyday. It's funny to think back on how scared I was of this entire experience, because now both Reuben and myself are just in love with this boy! He's amazing!
