In the past week or so Matthew has really been perfecting the art of crawling, both on his belly and his knees...and I couldn't be any more prouder. Not proud b/c I did anything, because I haven't taught him anything about leg placement or pushing off with your feet or alternating your arms, but just proud because he's doing this all on his own. I can't push him or coach him to do this right...all I can do is give him the space to try it out and cheer him on. Amazing how little control I really do have, and yet all is working out SO very well. Thank you God for letting my son grow healthy and strong.
As for the spinning, do all babies do this? haha...I think it's the funniest thing. He'll just sit on his tush and go around in circles. Sometimes as he spins he'll look back at me and flash a huge dimpled smile. You know I just MELT when he does that.
And as for the sitting...well, I don't know how but he literally mastered that in 4-5 days. Sometimes it's still hard for him to go back into crawling position though, but it's all a work in progress.
You go Matthew!!! I'm so proud of you!!
