Learning to Crawl & Stand

Click to Play

Will has been pushing himself so hard to try to master crawling. For awhile he's been able to get up on all fours and bounce a bit. When he'd go to take a "step" he'd just launch himself forward on his belly or crawl backwards. (see video) Around the same time his crawling adventures began, he started pulling himself to a standing position in his crib or at the coffee table. That's been going on for about two weeks, but this week he'd definitely crawling. Really crawling. That frightens and amazes me. This little guy is just so strong! I have to get some video of him doing "sit ups". So, who does this little man take after? Who in our family is of such physical prowess? I know we can all sit, crawl & stand...some of us can even walk, but did we at 6 months?? Anne Hoskins says that Billy was standing by 6 months, so maybe he gets it from his daddy.
