Our Little Inchworm

It's not exactly crawling, but it's getting there. I guess it's "pre-crawling."

Ollie can't quite coordinate the arms with the legs but he's got the two isolated movements going: Upper body and lower body. Or maybe he's just doing yoga, it kinda looks like that, too. :-)













Move 1. Cobra Pose. Head and shoulders up, arms straight. Probably reaching for some toy that we've put just out of reach to coax him on.














Move 2. Downward-Facing Dog Pose. Tailbone up in the air, legs straightened, and head down. He'll work those feet, trying to move forward but, alas, the arms and shoulders aren't cooperating.

He'll get it one of these days. Before you know it, he'll be tearing through the house on all fours.

Time to babyproof those cabinets, Daddy!
