Crawling and Swimming!

As the title suggests we now have a crawler! Woohoo! Or more likely, crap, we still don't have any baby gates! So next on the shopping list, you guessed it! BABY GATES!!! Not that he is getting around super fast or anything. He is still kinda shaky and he does this thing where he tries to walk on his feet but with his hands on the ground when he crawls. It's super funny! The hubby and I were sitting on the floor trying to get him to come to us but he just kept repositioning himself, after he got on his knees like he was gonna crawl! So we have learned he likes to tease us with the whole crawling thing. But if you put a phone on the floor, just out of his reach, then you can watch him crawl! He has some important calls to make! Apparently. I wonder if he would buy it if we got him one of those toy phones? He probably wouldn't even play with it! We'll see I guess. So shopping list so far: BABY GATES, toy phone, super glue (in case the gates don't work!), I think that's about it. Whew short shopping list this week!

I think I alluded to swimming as well. We went to the giant bathtub again (babes second time!) and he was just as impressed as he was the first time, he wasn't. Well he did warm up a bit I guess, towards the end, when we were getting out. Actually he liked it when anyone splashed. He would giggle every time someone splashed. So after a little bit he just floated around the pool in his floaty (that's the technical term) and giggled. He also tried to, well we aren't sure if he was trying to lick the floaty or the water, but he was definitely trying to lick something! We all had fun and stayed at the pool for almost two hours! I know right! Just swimming! We had the pool to ourselves though, well us and some friends also with babes.

Then we came home, the magical walker worked for it's time off and then we crawled some more! On a side note it is amazing what you can find when you do that crawling inspection thing so the baby can play on the floor. Just amazing I tell you. I'm pretty sure I found a cheese puff and I don't think we have ever had cheese puffs here! Brogans girlfriend must be sneaking in snack foods again. How many talks do I have to have with that girl!

This video shows what I was talking about with the whole walking on his feet with his hands on the floor. Just imagine a much cuter baby (you know, because he is mine!) with less equilibrium and not really going anywhere, and that's how Brogan crawls! This baby is much more advanced, obviously training for the baby Olympics. We didn't make the cut this year, thanks a lot worlds fastest baby!
