Crawling!

It's official! My little guys is finally crawling! He was very early sitting up at only 4 months and also early at getting on his hands and knees and rocking back and forth. This started in early November and everyone told me that he would be crawling any day. I don't in anyway want my little Rogan to be delayed in anything, but it's my nature to cling to each phase. I enjoy each and every stage and even though i look forward to his growing and learning I do so love his babyness. So I was a little sad when I knew his infant stage was nearing and end and he would be on to crawling. I just wasn't ready for that yet! Well here we are three whole months later and he finally got the hang of it. I went from not wanting him to crawl yet to "come on baby, you can do this!" I think I was more ready for it then he was. :)
He is enjoying his new found freedom and, as you might suspect, is getting into everything. I love it though. His favorite thing is to crawl over to his canned food (that I keep at floor level) and get them all out of the box and scatter them everywhere. It's so cute! He is also very interested in doors and if they can be slammed into anything he'll SLAM it over and over and over again. This loud game never seams to loose it's appeal.
He tries to pull up on things, but it usually ends in him on the floor with his legs in a tangled mess. He did succeed once, but that's probably because he was trying to get to Mama and Daddy's ice cream. Thanks to Auntie Laura he is very fond of ice cream.
