my boy is growing up

What a dramatic change this crawling is!

He suddenly has so much more control over his situation. His 'sphere of influence' is incalculably larger: Now he can travel to the toys, or across the living room to chew on the doormat (yuck!) if only given the chance. He can spin like a compass arrow on his belly, and he can clamber over waist-high obstacles.

There was a pillow resting atop a small nursing stool on the floor. Next thing you knew there was a Dylan resting atop said pillow!

It's wonderful to see so many changes. It makes my heart sing to see him sitting in his play area happily moving from one toy to the next, chewing on this one and rotating that one. And he's very close to figuring out (finally) how to roll from his tummy to his back. He'll have it down within the week I'm sure. Hopefully that'll mean we can take the roll-stabilizer out of his crib and he'll sleep even better.

Way to go, d.
