The baby still can't crawl but is able to get on his hands and knees. I guess he hasn't grasped the concept of coordinating his hands with his knees to move yet. He does however have a lot of mobility. He might as well be crawling. He's what I call sealing...he moves himself across the floor by using his arms/hands to pull himself forward. It looks almost like swimming. He used to just move backwards in this position, but now he's gained the upper body strength to move forward..The hardwood floors are a real help since he can easily glide like a seal wherever he wants to go...This means trouble...pulling on wires, grabbing whatever is on the floor...trying to tip over the plants...I would say he's pretty stubborn, e.g. touching the plants - he knows he shouldn't because we've stopped him many many many times. So now when I catch him trying to grab soil or pull the plant over, he has a guilty look on his face like he just got caught stealing cookies from the jar. Anyhow, now if you call him, he can come towards you. Before he kind of didn't know how to control wherever he was going because he could only push himself backwards. Looks like he is progressing.
I discovered reading reviews about wipes on Amazon that people refer to baby's #2 as BM (bowel movement) ha. It seems like a nicer way of not having to reference the word poo. Today another BM disaster. Let's just say when I went to change his diaper, he wasn't finished. Ugh :p
And I tell him often during a #2 diaper change, "Eeww, it's stinky," and he laughs..What a sense of humor already. He already knows it's gross and thinks it's funny I have to clean it up. Nice one, baby.
