Look Ma, No Hands!

As you can see from the previous video, Aaron can sit up on his own now.


He's been able to do this for over a month now, and just a few weeks ago, he started crawling. At first it was more of an army style crawl, where he used his arms to pull the rest of his body along, but now he's graduated to using his legs to help his movement. I haven't gotten a good video of it yet, but I'll work on it and post one later.

It's really fun to watch him explore and discover new things on his own, but we recently moved, so now we're rushing to finish unpacking and cleaning up so we can babyproof. He's displayed a knack for getting into everything we don't want him to and he's also putting everything in his mouth right now, so he requires near constant vigilance. Sometimes I'll step into the bathroom to wash my hands and when I come out, he'll be on the other side of the room where he's managed to rummage through some piles of papers and boxes to find a plastic bag(!) to stick in his mouth.

Here he is playing with a catalog for the first time.
