Crawling!

It's official; Josiah doesn't scoot anymore. That was apparently very short-lived. He now crawls - all over the house. Nothing is off limits and his favorite places to go include straight to the stereo or the bathroom. He sort of has a gimp leg, but that doesn't hold him back. I am scared for when he starts to use both legs to their full potential, though. With his current enthusiasm for getting around, we have had several big spills and had to remove the changing pad from the table (after he climbed out of the belt and up on the raised section in just the blink of an eye), so that we won't even be tempted to use it. Josiah has to stay on the floor or be belted in really well.

Josiah finds Eila extremely amusing at times and other times ignore her completely, especially when she is trying to tell him what to do or not to do. He fits perfectly into his roll as the little brother. Now that he can really move, he has been found eating (maybe gnawing would be a more accurate term) chalk, old cereal, leaves, dirty socks and lots of cords. Yet, he still chooses not to eat any baby food!

Josiah really did pick up on John's habits - scooting and not eating. Without John's influence, he gave up on the scooting, so maybe he will give up on his rebellion against baby food, too!! :)
