Livin' on the edge!

As you can see Will is on the verge of crawling. He gets up on all 4 and just rocks back and forward. He even gets his arms going OR his legs going. We haven't figured out that we need to do both at once. So he belly flops a lot. When he actually gets all appendages moving, he somehow ends up going backwards. Haven't figured that out yet. He is not very happy about learning to crawl, he just wants to walk. Every time I try to get him to crawl, he rolls over, grabs my hands, pulls up, and tries to walk off. He usually screams if I try to get him to do it again. He does great with walking as long as he holds on to my fingers. He barely even supports himself on my hands, just as a safety. He sometimes tries to go quicker than his little feet can keep up. He tries to let go, but ends up falling. He would spend all day walking around the house if I would let him, but its a little hard on the back, leaning over for him to hold my hands. I heard somewhere that they should learn to crawl before walking. Something about coordination later in life, but I don't know if I believe it. People are super opinionated about it. Its quite funny. We'll just see what he does.
Sorry we haven't updated in a while. It's been a crazy busy month. I promise to try and be better. Have a great rest of the week; the weekend cannot come quickly enough!

That sure is a sweet looking TV in the background.
 
1) Once again, sorry for interrupting your gourmet meal the other night.
2) Thanks for finally updating!
3) Matthew, you're a loser.
 
Hello, love! Good to hear form you!!
 
DO NOT LET HIM LEARN TO WALK BEFORE HE CRAWLS... BREAK HIS KNEE CAPS IF YOU HAVE TO!!! Haha, just kidding. As long as you let him rumble and fall and play he will learn all of the coordination that he needs. Logan has decided that he is invincible and is trying to jump off things taller than him, like couches, stairs, slides. He seems to keep getting really lucky and not breaking himself, and he absolutely will not listen when we tell him not to. We just hope he doesn't have to break anything too seriously to learn his lesson. Did you guys get orders to your next duty station yet or are you writing a letter?
