Mobile Baby!!

Jaxon is crawling!!! He had been getting up on his knees and rocking around for awhile and this week he suddenly decided to take off. He will do this weird thing where he half bear crawls sometimes though.

H still has to concentrate pretty hard on what he's doing.

But he loves this new found freedom. Once he gets going he will giggle the entire way across the room. It is so cute!
Crawling is a bittersweet milestone. I'm happy because Jaxon is happier. He does a lot more self-entertaining and is less needy. He likes being able to get to things he is curious about. On the other hand, it means I need to have less around for him to be curious about! The floor has to constantly be vaccumed and the kitchen needs to be constantly swept. And I have to really hound on the girls to keep their toys in their room with all of the little tiny chokable pieces they have. But it's all good. He's so proud of himself, and we're so proud of him!!!!
