Slow and Steady Wins The Race

We have a mover! Brode has slowly started crawling. He wasn't too into so it took him a while to learn. He much more prefered doing circles and scooting on his butt but he finally trusts himself on his knees. It isn't a typical crawl that he is attempting, more of a stance like a block start in track and tries to hop on the one knee on the ground. Regardless of how its done, he can slowly gets to where he wants to be! The huge downfall/negative, he is crawling around the living room where there are table legs and fireplace bricks so we need to take care of those.

Aside from crawling Brode also began pulling up on things. This means his crib mattress needs to go down and he is getting pretty daring on the tables,chairs and toys!

Lastly, Brode started swimming lessons today. Matt and Grandma Beth are taking him to the Y on Saturday mornings for Water Exploration! They just left so we'll see how it went in a couple hours! He is a splasher in the bathtub so I'm sure he will love it. Unfortunetaly I forgot to send my camera so hopefully after next weeks class I can get some pictures up!
