Will has been working on this for about a month, but he is finally crawling ALL the time, not just a few steps here and there. It is such a big milestone and one the therapists have really been working on.
We are still concerned that William's upper body strength is lagging behind his lower body. This milestone is so encouraging because he is obviously strengthening his arms and shoulders and stomach while crawling around. It also helps his reflexes so that he can learn to reach out and catch himself when he falls from standing. PLUS, it makes him very happy to get around so much faster.
This is a video that I took tonight after we had been out in the cold. He took off before I could take off his snowsuit, but it didn't seem to really bother him (except the slipping around). You can also hear a nice clear "bye-bye" at the end. Enjoy (and please ignore the mess)!
