First Little Steps

Apparantly, we've been enticing Will to crawl the wrong way. We've tried books, toys, and funny noises but none of them worked. We should have known: he's a boy. He'll go after the TV remote. For some reason, he loves our cable remote. Fortunately, we have a spare so we took the batteries out and let him play with it. He was on his hands and knees and I put it about 4 feet away from him and he crawled his way to it. He repeated the process one more time (which I got on video below - its very short, we'll get more footage later). Then we took a break because I didn't want to wear him out before Phil got home. He did show off for his dad. He's not graceful yet, but we're very proud! Our electrical outlets are already baby proofed and we'll probably do the kitchen/bathroom cabinets soon. The baby gate for the stairs is ready and waiting in the basement.

Will has also fallen in love with Cheerios. It's pretty funny to watch him "chew" them. (He does have 2 teeth now, but all food is still gummed at this point.)
