Crawling

Israel started crawling on Wednesday, January 13! It was so awesome and I was so proud....haha. He has been so close since around Christmas. It just took him a bit to get the hand movements down. He started crawling at exactly 7 months 1 week old. The next day he didn't crawl much but on Friday he was following me around the kitchen and has been perfecting his skills since.

Jeremiah was a little disappointed that he was gone when he took his first crawls but I was actually able to get it on video. Jer was gone 2.5 hours away for work all last week so at least I was able to send him the video clip:)

I have been much more busy as this guy wants to get into everything. So far he has pulled off some stripping in the kitchen, opened cabinets, pulled cords, crawled under tables, made a mess in the dog bowl (yuck), bonked his head, and tried to eat a piece of loose carpet. He is VERY curious and will cry and kick his legs when I remove him from an unwanted situation.

It truly is amazing how much babies accomplish in their first couple of years of life.....God is so smart:)

Well, gonna watch the COLTS with my hubby.....GO HORSE!!

Way to go Israel!! It's so much fun when they start crawling and walking but it does make things very busy around the house! Enjoy it! (and good luck :) Children are such joy aren't they??!
