2 thumbs & a dummy

I guess this must run in the family….my kids all started walking late. Arianna is perhaps the best despite only turning over at nearly 8 months. Brandon is currently holding the record! To be honest, he has only RECENTLY started rolling over by himself. While he is able to scoot around on his bum and pull himself up, he has never made any attempt to roll over despite our continuous encouragement ie. loads of tummy time and helping/teaching him to roll over. I dont know what to say about that really. So while his arms and legs are somewhat strong, it’s only now that he making a little bit more effort to roll over.

I reckon that although he is capable of rolling over by himself, he hasn’t quite figured out how to coordinate so that he can roll over. However, once he does roll over he is quick to push himself up and sit up – that I find totally weird and bizarre! And you can literally see how proud he is of himself for being able to do it! lol Very cute….

Anyhoo, I managed to take this vid of him in the walker FINALLY walking after at least 3 weeks of not even trying to move forward. All he did when we put him in there was to whine and cry as if we’ve abandoned him or something. But I think he’s figured out the “power” of the walker and now, he is more happy to be in it! Moving forward more than backwards….that’s progress to me!
