Today is Arlo's 8 month birthday! And yesterday he gave US a present...after practicing for about 3 weeks, he CRAWLED for the first time! And the best part was that he did it on a day when Charlie and I were both home to see it! It's a rarity these days that we're home at the same time, but Charlie had gotten home from Bonnaroo the night before and I had a day off so we were incredibly lucky to share that milestone as a family!
Here is my favorite video - apparently using toys and baby talk and mommy or daddy as motivation was not cool enough to crawl for. But a ratty little scrap from our dog's rope toy was just the ticket.
What an exciting new chapter of babyhood! We're looking forward to seeing him explore his world on his own. We'll be the ones chasing after him. ;)
