Mixed blessing
Aug. 9th, 2013 11:43 pmARR is so close to crawling.
He's got all the pieces, he just needs to put them together. He spent part of today balanced on hands and knees, trying out combos. Frog leaping forward. Extending a leg backward. So close.
Unfortunately, the drive is continuing. Right now. Every time we rock him down, he lasts a minute and then rolls over and starts trying to crawl in his sleep. And then wakes up, miserable and frustrated and exhausted, and wails. We've gone through the cycle five? six? times in the last hour. I have no idea what to do. I can get him to sleep, but as soon as I walk away, he rolls over and starts writhing his knees under him and it starts again. Oh child. And you'll be up at seven no matter what I do.
