milestones



Almost there! Aaron almost has intentional forward motion in his skill set. He rolls over at will either direction and pulls his body in circles to face a different direction. He loves to put things in his mouth, of course. But he is more interested in interacting with people than with objects. This evening he finally started moving forward to go after some blocks. With a look of desperation he pulls himself up on his knees and, if they don't shoot back out behind him again, they propel him forward towards his goal. He hasn't quite got it down, but he's not far off now!

Aaron has also started sitting up. We have to stay close and keep an eye on him though because he can't catch himself when he loses his balance.

The mouth...everything goes into Austin's too! We spent last night at the ER because Austin was too good at finding a bottle of year old water under the bathroom sink...I didn't even know it was there! Hopefully Aaron isn't that good at finding those hidden non treasures! Austin has it mastered!

He is such a happy kid, and a cute one at that.
