Crawling

Well it happened Monday, Burl started crawling. He had been getting ready to do so for the last week or so; balancing up on his toes, pushing himself forward, scooting and rolling forwards and backwards. Then Monday he got his knees under his tummy and took a few "steps". I held him tight all day Tuesday and didn't let him down. He's growing so quickly...






He's becoming very mobile, he tries following me during his tummy time while I'm walking around the house. If I leave him unattended for any period of time (which is never very long or often) he'll end up on the other side of the room than where I left him. It's time to baby proof our house...

He's five + months old now, and I love him more than ever. His smile, his eyes, his laugh, his cry, his voice, his breath, his skin, his little fingers, I never imagined a love like this. And what's even more amazing is his love is reciprocated. The power of our bond is incredible.
