Learning to Crawl

Colton has been moving around pretty well but has done so by rolling over and scooting backwards.  The journey to crawl took place over about a week beginning on Saturday, July 7th. Colton started to realize what he needed to do with a little help from Grandma Karen.

A few days later...

By the 12th Colton had forgotten what he learned from Grandma Karen and only wanted to plank. "Look, Mom - I'm strong!"

By the 13th  - Colton was back to his knees but only moving about 1-2 feet before he'd flop on his belly and proceed to roll over.  Rolling over repeatedly got him to move faster than crawling.

Then, finally - Sunday night - it all started to come together!  Fortunately Grandpa G, Aunt Lauren & Uncle Kendal were there to see.

Colton is crawling!
