on the go.

Carter is on the verge of becoming a very mobile baby. For months he has hated being on his tummy and has always just loved standing. So, we just assumed he would skip crawling and go straight to walking. In the last week that has all changed. This kid can't get enough of his tummy, is constantly rocking back and forth on his hands and knees and has finally learned to scoot forward! He's been able to slide backwards on the hardwoods for a while, but the actual act of crawling has begun. I'm so proud of him yet so fearful for what's to come. We still need to babyproof the house and now have very little time to do it!

He also learned how to pull himself up on just about anything. I was folding laundry the other day when I turned around and saw this. Needless to say, Matt lowered the mattress the next day.He has also learned to pull himself up on the coffee table and try to walk around it while holding on. Such a big boy!
