I make him earn every bottle.
He needs me to give him something to push his legs against; he hasn’t yet figured out he can use the floor. But with the proper motivation (BOTTLE) he can really cover some territory!

I love how his upper body sits up so straight as he’s crawling!
Priceless! With that kind of motivation, he’ll be kayaking the Pacific Crest Train and surfing a mule down the Mississippi in no time.
The crawling stage is apparently important for brain development and a sense of spatial integration. I’ve been a bit worried that he’d skip crawling and go straight for walking because he so loves to stand up (with assistance) and always has. However, he’s made some dramatic gains in recent days and I predict that he’ll be crawling by June! I can imagine that it will feel really good for him to be mobile.
